What did Dems have to loose by calling witnesses?

The ability to immediately go to reconciliation to pass the covid relief bill ASAP, right?

I don’t understand why it has to be an either/or thing. They never heard of multitasking?

Man, I wish it was a dem potus who incited an insurrection.

GOP lawmakers don’t do much, but they certainly would treat us to a thorough and exhaustive effort if the tables were turned.

Not once the impeachment starts, no.

What we are essentially seeing here is Trump and his defense throwing his own base under the bus...

I think part of it was they knew Republicans would start intentionally stalling the witness process so they could blame Dems for not getting to the relief bill that republicans won’t support anyway?

Sounds like the gop is still controlling the senate.

I’m surprised they didn’t wanna go the witness route just to get Hunter Biden up there.

This Trump defense lawyer is something else...

I will give significantly of my time, money and voice to do everything possible to vote out of office any Senator from my state who fails to find Trump guilty. Any member of Congress who listens to this case and fails to find him guilty has failed their oath of office to defend this country.

What these GOP stooges fail to ask themselves is "what am I really getting out if this"? Do they think Trump will be loyal to them for this? Only until it serves him better to turn on you, which is inevitable in this profession. The stain on their legacy is forever.

Will someone remind Trump's lawyer that BLM protests have nothing to do with this case? The best possible thing he is winning by talking about Dem statements in regards to BLM protests and the associated riots is "we should get away with this crime because we think other people got away with it before us".

I mean come on. They've now gone from "we don't think Trump is eligible to face these charges" to "we don't think you followed the right procesures" to "we don't think we should be found guilty because we think some of you did similar things and didn't get in trouble".

There has been no real attempt to actually prove Trump isn't guilty of the charge.

Trump being allowed to run again is exactly what the Democrats want. It ensures they stay in power for a long time.

Listen to this old turd.

While I felt strongly that if this wasn't an impeachable defense, nothing is...I do draw some comfort knowing that the GOP has just essentially neutered themselves.

Lol
