Rick Scott: I believe President Trump will be acquitted on Friday

Sen. Rick Scott predicted that President Trump will be acquitted in his Senate trial on Friday.

“I believe he’ll be acquitted tomorrow. I don’t believe we’re going to see — we’re not going to vote for witnesses," the Florida senator told Laura Ingraham on Thursday night.

"The Democrats had their choice, had their time. They could have called — they wanted Bolton. They could have called Bolton back in the House, and they decided not to do it. So I don’t think we’re going to vote for witnesses, and I think we’ll finish this up tomorrow night.”

Scott is not the only Senate Republican who believes the trial is coming to an end.

Sen. John Barrasso from Wyoming echoed a similar sentiment on Thursday.

"The momentum is clearly in the direction of moving to final judgment on Friday,” he said. “That vote will be Friday. We still have a couple of members who said they want to listen to the answers to questions, but that's where the momentum is."

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday that Trump "will not be acquitted" even if the Senate votes to acquit him.

"He will not be acquitted," Pelosi told reporters. “You cannot be acquitted if you don’t have a trial. You don’t have a trial if you don’t have witnesses and documentation and all of that. Does the president know right from wrong? I don't think so.”

Democrats have been demanding the ability to call witnesses, specifically John Bolton, and gather more evidence in the trial, but Republicans appear confident they have the necessary votes to block that from happening.
