Probably would have gotten more votes for that.
People who say "Democrats are as bad as Republicans" are almost as bad as Republicans.

A month later, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) adopted a similar approach, voting against convicting Trump in his impeachment trial, but delivering floor remarks denouncing the former president's obvious wrongdoing. As TPM noted, McConnell is facing similar intra-party pushback.
Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) took aim at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) on Monday for scolding former President Trump for inciting the mob behind the deadly Capitol insurrection last month. Despite McConnell's vote to acquit Trump, Johnson took offense to the Senate minority leader's "scathing" Senate floor speech — much like fellow Trump loyalist Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) did during an interview on "Fox News Sunday."
Graham got the ball rolling the day after McConnell's comments, complaining to Fox News that the Senate GOP leader simply wasn't partisan enough for Graham's liking.
"I think Sen. McConnell's speech, he got a load off his chest, obviously, but unfortunately he put a load on the back of Republicans," Graham said. "That speech you will see in 2022 campaigns."

I wish they were going to get anything like what they’re suing for, but the process should be entertaining anyway. Dominion is unlikely to take a settlement, so we’re going to have a very public showing of just how truly insane the MyFiller guy is.
