You could smell the desperation right through the TV.
It seems as though it was for the last day that democrats saved the most colossal stupidity.
Mazie Hirono let slip that democrats have no use for the Constitution
"I don't care what kind of nice, little, legal, constitutional defenses that they came up with"
Constitution be damned. I thought that if we waited long enough democrats would reveal themselves.
Hakeem Jeffries appeared to be a Trump plant. He argued that the Steele dossier wasn't foreign interference because it was "purchased."
Joe Biden drifted off into some distant ethereal world when he asserted that this impeachment wasn't partisan:
Nadler wants us to treat Trump like a dog
Nadler is the guy the Framers warned us about. Dershowitz reminded us that Congress is not above the Presidency. I am also wondering how that would have gone over had a Republican said it about Obama.
Nancy Pelosi wants the Trump team disbarred because she's getting her ass kicked.
Now for some facts.
In 1999 Joe Biden argued that there should be no witnesses in the Senate trial of Bill Clinton:
In a January 5, 1999 private memorandum to his fellow Democrat senators at the time, Biden wrote that the Senate should dismiss the articles of impeachment against Clinton without holding what he called a “‘full blown’ trial.”There was an ignorant media tweet which got a proper response“The Senate need not hold a ‘full blown’ trial” with witnesses and testimony, then-Sen. Biden wrote. “[T]he Senate may dismiss articles of impeachment without holding a full trial or taking any evidence.”
“Put another way, the Constitution does not impose on the Senate the duty to hold a trial,” he continued. “In fact the Senate need not hold a trial even though the House wishes to present evidence and hold a full trial[.]”
There were lots of witnesses. The House simply chose not to pursue more. Nowhere in the US legal system is it stipulated that the defendant must produce witnesses for the prosecution. Any argument that this trial is not "fair" if the Trump defense team does not allow witnesses for the prosecution is plain stupid. Trial are supposed to "fair" to defendants, NOT to prosecutors.

Whine, whine whine. A bunch of five year olds.
Future Trending:
Yes, Trump’s acquittal is real and it’s spectacular
I just saw an interview with Amy Klobupuke where she said the democrats are still holding out for “specific witnesses” and “specific documents”.
Is she talking about something real, or is she just as stupid as a bag of hammers... as she certainly appears to be?
Well, what he did was send missiles, rockets, sniper rifles, ammo, money etc, all within the time frame specified.
On the other hand little bammy sent... some blankets.
The current whining from the progs is starting to make Marie Harf look kinda smart.
.
Why is she still allowed to serve since clearly she has broken her oath of office?
Don’t be so sure of that.
Biden is actually “Walter” Jeff Dunham’s ventriloquist dummy. Somebody post a link from YouTube please, I keep messing it up.
schumer offered amendments..voted down..except Romney voted against GOP several times
Agree!
Wow. Romney. Unbelievable. He’s going to vote to impeach.
Jealousy is ugly.
Do you mean convict? Romney will show himself to be the biggest asshole on the planet if he does that.
I wish I had voted for Obama against this phony underwear clad Judas Iscariot.
Perhaps the good citizens should send the DemonRATs boxes of crackers and blocks of cheese to go with their whine.
Question; Did the Russian invasion of Crimea take place after Bam-Bam's reelection when he was more flexible?
If you mean convict, I seriously doubt it.
But I’ve been wrong before - like when I voted for the bastard in 2012.
Of course, that's so far... I think they'll be going both ways.
