Democratic Senator Doug Jones dismissed concerns that’ll he lose his seat if he votes to remove President Trump in a Senate trial, but said he would acquit Trump if "dots aren't connected" over “gaps” in the impeachment case.

Democratic Senator Doug Jones dismissed concerns that’ll he lose his seat if he votes to remove President Trump in a Senate trial, but said he would acquit Trump if"dots aren't connected" over “gaps” in the impeachment case.

Jones said “there are gaps” that witnesses who appear at the Senate trial would help fill in. But Democrats’ requests for witnesses and relevant documents have been roundly resisted by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. “I have no idea what Mitch McConnell's talking about these days,” responded Jones, a vulnerable moderate whose state had not voted for a Democrat in a Senate race in 25 years before his upset victory in December 2017. He is considered to be one of the potential Democratic defectors in Trump’s impeachment trial.
