#1 And people could also use the "the against all enemies both foreign and domestic" to remove a great many Democrats and other leftists from office the hard way.

#2 it would take only three senators to allow for that possibility

Mitt and who else?

#3 resulting in a principled Republican as the nominee.

...Yeah, Pierre Delecto is tanned, rested, ready and ready to collaborate- I mean, cooperate.

#4 This comes from the people who were openly dreaming of a coup following the November election 3 years ago.

A secret ballot would end the legitimacy of the sitting government.

#5 Mitt and who else?
Potentially Murkowski and Collins.

#6 A secret ballot would end the legitimacy of the sitting government.

And the match that would light the next civil war.

#8 If Mitch McConnell allowed a secret ballot he’d probably not get re-elected. So why would he do so?

This is wishful thinking on the level of Republican Electoral College delegates giving their votes to Hillary.

#9 A secret ballot is against everything a democracy stands for and the people in the Senate being held accountable for their actions by the voters.

I doubt Trump would leave office if that happened and the military would back him along with a good majority of the population.

A hot Civil war would be started.

#11 No way in hell would I ever vote for Pierre. Let Warren have it if that's the way the GOPe wants to play it.
