Total farce. Not a single Republican should go. The Senate should give a public statement that if impeachment is voted, there will be a one-day trial and an immediate vote not guilty

I almost feel like they should drag it out to the point of absurdity. This way Senate presidential contenders can’t campaign...and that’s funny

Exactly! The republicans should not show up. Let them carry on this farce all alone. That would send a more profound statement.

I think that this is the wrong tactic. Instead of a one-day trial, the Senate should make it clear that there will be a trial where the first witnesses are, in order, (1) Schiff, (2) The Whistleblower, (3) Hunter Biden, (4) Joe Biden, (5) IG of CIA [to explain exactly why the CIA whistleblower application was changed to allow hearsay, and (6) Vindner to explain who he talked to and why he shared classified WH information to unauthorized parties. This might be the best way to get the House to back off.

I agree. I don’t think any Republicans should attend such a farce.

Are there not going to be any House Managers as in the Clinton impeachment? I haven’t heard a word about that. I don’t even know if we’re still in the “inquiry” stage or where we are. But heck - I don’t think piglosi or shifty know either. Maybe the House Managers didn’t get involved until a hearing was set before the ENTIRE House membership.

I think the Senate should do full discovery and interrogate people under oath in public.
