    Trump strike on Soleimani came amid pressure from impeachment allies in Senate: reports

    BY J. EDWARD MORENO - 01/10/20 11:31 AM EST

    President Trump said his order to launch the drone strike that killed Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani came amid pressure from Senate Republicans he views as key allies in his upcoming impeachment trial, The Wall Street Journal reported and The New York Times reported this week. (1), (2)

    The articles did not name the GOP senators, but many of Trump's allies in the Senate, including Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), have praised his decision to take out the Quds Force commander in Baghdad.

    Graham, an Iran hawk who is also chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has been outspoken in his support of Trump's strike on Soleimani and in his opposition to Trump's impeachment.

    The New York Times reported that Trump said on a phone call that he had been under pressure by some Senate Republicans (Trump toadies) to take a harder line on Iran.

    I wonder how many millions TRE45ON has promised Lindy Graham for his continuing support?
