That was my initial reaction.  He knows he is toast in 2020 and wanted to stick it to the citizens of Alabama on his way out.  Now he can sanctimoniously claim he lost because he followed his "conscience" in voting to convict instead of the reality that the only reason he won in the first place was Roy Moore and the conveniently timed allegations.  He was never a fit for the majority of Alabama voters and as soon as there was a viable candidate he was going to lose.  This just gives him some shade.

I am betting he was sitting with his staff asking around the room who thought he could win in November.  When no hands shot up he said screw it, I'm going down in a blaze of glory and maintain my good standing with the Democrat party.  What he doesn't understand is that they will eject him for losing because power is all that matters.
