“..Constitutional law attorney Jonathan Turley said the best course for Trump might be to refuse to recognize any Senate trial.
“For a notorious counterpuncher, avoiding a fight might be the most difficult decision of all, particularly because he has obvious defenses. First, he was denied due process when the House held an unprecedented ‘snap impeachment’ without a hearing or inquiry even though a trial likely would not occur immediately. Even a one-day hearing would have allowed evidence to be discussed as well as a formal request for a response,” Turley wrote on his website.

“Second, the impeachment article is poorly crafted and poorly conceived, built around assertions that Trump’s Jan. 6 speech to supporters was an ‘incitement to insurrection.’ His speech raised potentially impeachable grounds; I condemned it as he gave it and opposed his challenge of electoral votes from the outset. But as I wrote previously, it would have been far better to censure him for it in a bipartisan, bicameral resolution,” he said. ...”

imo, turly moved to the darkside years ago.

back in the day, turley was a strong investigator of the ft marcy park death of VWF.

some time after that he gave up focus on VWF & imo, became an advocate of the hildabeast.

would not be surprised to find out he was bought off about the same time as drudge??

his reward? news max?

which is turning left through here anyway.
