I can't believe the restraint of a lot of senators not to run knee and stay throwing haymakers. It's one side trying to preserve the rule of law and the other side of trying to pudding. That's not a typo. Pudding. Nothing they are stating is even in the same realm.

This isn't a difference of opinion, this is a difference of literally being.
 
“The House managers were focused. They were organized. They relied upon both precedent, the Constitution and legal scholars. They made a compelling argument. President Trump’s team were disorganized. They did everything they could but to talk about the question at hand,” said Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.). “And when they talked about it, they kind of glided over, almost as if they were embarrassed of their arguments.”
...
Generally, Republicans were warmer on Schoen. But Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), a former state Supreme Court judge and state attorney general, conceded of the presentation: “Not one of the finest I’ve seen. “The first lawyer, just rambled on and on and on and didn't really address the constitutional argument,” Cornyn said. ”Finally the second lawyer got around to it.”

“I was really stunned by the first attorney who presented for the former President Trump, couldn’t figure out where he was going. He spent 45 minutes going somewhere,” said Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska). “Mr. Schoen did a better job, but I think they sure had a missed opportunity with their first attorney.”

Cassidy said he leaned over to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) at one point and asked if Castor and Schoen, another attorney, were confronting the day’s issue: whether the trial was constitutional. Cassidy said Cruz replied: “Not now.”
“I don't think the lawyers did the most effective job,” Cruz told reporters later
 
GOP Senator's vote will further expose the corruption of the Republican party and how their values align with their personal interest not the interest of the Republic or the American people.

"GOP senators hope to take refuge in the idea that former presidents are exempt to give themselves a rhetorical and political means of dodging a direct vote on whether what Trump actually did constitutes high crimes and misdemeanors.

This has been widely depicted as mere tactical maneuvering. But it’s much worse than that: It’s an active evasion of their own duty as public officials to defend the Constitution. This defense, then, actually unmasks their dereliction of this duty."

Even if it doesn't sway the republican senators (and let's face it, it won't), this trial will make for very uncomfortable viewing for the general public and may make some think twice about backing their republican representatives in future. I suspect that has been the Dem plan all along as they knew they wouldn't succeed in finding him guilty.
