Peter J. Thomas, Chairman of The Conservative Caucus (TCC), commended the Senate today for its vote to acquit President Trump.
“The President did not commit an impeachable offense” said Thomas. “The only abuse of power was when the House twisted impeachment into a partisan attack on the President. The Senate has shown its respect for the Constitution’s separation of powers, and demonstrated that the delegates to the Constitutional Convention were correct in believing they had provided sufficient safeguards against such misuse of impeachment.”
Thomas pointed out that TCC, for more than two years, has been mobilizing grass roots pressure on Republican members of Congress, insisting that they assist the President by fighting back against attempts to weaken or destroy his presidency. “Our members and supporters made themselves heard”, said Thomas, “and they helped keep Republicans in Congress more united behind the President than anyone could have expected.”
