Whatever she said or did cannot be that significant. She is being scapegoated here, IMHO.

Maybe they could blame it on Pelosi, Schiff, and Nadler.

Yes it was significant, because it indicated the Dems’ strategy was to make Roberts himself part of the debate.

And THAT really rubbed several moderate Senators (like Murkowski) the wrong way, and had them asking WHY such a tactic would be needed if the Dems’ case really was so “overwhelming”.

So yes, Warren’s idiotic question helped to kill any further witnesses.

(BTW, Nadler’s opening charge about a Republican “cover-up” also helped to kill any goodwill)

so - 2 unforced errors by the Dems

I agree. It was kind of fun for Cruz to blame it all on here, but Roberts wasn’t going to rule on that regardless.

It takes a two thirds super majority to convict in the Senate. The Democrats knew they never had that from the start. Warren is only one of one hundred Senators. No matter what she said Schiff and Pelosi are to blame.

Cruz and Graham said that both Murkowski and Alexander were considering voting in favor of witnesses, until Pocahonky’s rude and insulting question.
