Collins: Trump has learned ‘a pretty big lesson’ from impeachment BY JOHN BOWDEN 02/04/20 05:35 PM ET Maine Sen. Susan Collins (R) on Tuesday defended her newly announced decision to vote to acquit President Trump in his Senate impeachment trial, saying he has learned “a pretty big lesson” over his dealings with Ukraine.

Trump’s acquittal on Wednesday looks all but certain, with Collins the latest possible swing vote to say she would come down against the two House-passed articles of impeachment. “I believe that the president has learned from this case,” she told Norah O’Donnell of CBS News. “The president has been impeached. That’s a pretty big lesson.” “He was impeached. And there has been criticism by both Republican and Democratic senators of his call,” she continued, before predicting: “I believe that he will be much more cautious in the future.”

HAPPY FIFTH ANNIVERSARY to Susan Collins saying Trump learned a “pretty big lesson” from his first impeachment.
