Don’t be confused by Romney jumping ship – impeachment is about sticking to party lines

Don’t be confused by Romney jumping ship – impeachment is about sticking to party lines Impeachment supporters earned two more allies in Senators Mitt Romney and Doug Jones, but this process is about sticking to partisan camps when it comes to Donald Trump, not looking for truth. Romney is the latest conservative hero to the left as he has announced he will vote to impeach the president on one of the two counts against him, abuse of power.
