Senator Mitt Romney (R., Utah) on Wednesday announced he would vote to convict President Trump on one article of impeachment, abuse of power, while he would vote to acquit the president on the second article of obstruction of Congress.
Romney called Trump’s actions regarding Ukraine “an appalling abuse of public trust.” However, the senator also admitted that Trump would not be convicted in the final vote.
Romney is the only Republican senator who has announced his intent to vote to convict on either of the articles of impeachment. Fellow moderate Senators Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska announced earlier this week they would vote to acquit the president.
