Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-NY) lamented that "the abrasive style exhibited by the House impeachment managers may have doomed our chances for success. Calling senators 'traitors' if they don't vote to convict Trump is too heavy-handed. Though we might think they are traitors if they don't vote for conviction, saying this out loud is not wise. Similarly, threatening them with jail strikes me as premature. We might eventually get there if we defeat Trump and gain a majority in both houses on election day, but it's foolish to warn our enemies in advance."
Meanwhile, Vice-President Joe Biden flatly refused to testify in the impeachment trial citing his "right as a presidential candidate to not be forced to answer questions that might tend to benefit my opponent. Trump is already impeached for asking Ukraine's president to look into the business affairs of the company that hired my son. If I testify I'll be setting myself up to be impeached after I win the election, unless, of course, Democrats also win control of the House and Senate."

So the Senators get treated to the same Behavior that all conservatives have received for a dozen years.

Regarding Biden’s statements, that is obvious fiction/satire. There is just too much actual thinking going on there.
