Schiff Dems saying it was NOT a trial at all now because of this..
So what did this buy you weak kneed Senate Republicans demanding a long drawn out trial to appease Dems?
Our side needs to drive home the point that a trial can be abuse of power.
When the prosecutor hauls an accused in without a valid case, we don't make the accused go through a trial to add further injury.
Not only did the House abuse its power by impeaching Trump w/o due process, and on sham legal theory of "wrong," the senate added to the error by not dismissing the articles for that reason.
Well, now we know the senate will tie itself up for two weeks on ANY articles of impeachment. Bring in garbage, and make the same argument that it is up to the senate to conduct a trial. The public will fall for it.
To Democrats, and other Leftists, nothing counts if it goes against what they want. They are the ultimate sore losers.
The defense team should respond with quotes from the article from Politico that when Clinton was impeached Biden said they didn’t need to hear from witnesses.
Wish there was a way to get that article to defense team.
