Good luck with it, Chuck U. Mitch has 51 votes. You can agree to do the trial on the Clinton 1999 model but for some reason you don’t.

You’re still Minority Leader.

NOBODY is testifying!

Why?

Because the Democrats can't afford the price!!!!

BEFORE the Dems get to hear ANY witness, the GOP will call a number of witnesses that the Dems have NO INTEREST in hearing, and in fact, can't stand the political risk of allowing to testify.

The Dems called to testify would try the typical games of refusing the subpoena or pretending not to remember.

And then, they'd demand every e-mail and personal and professional writing over the last 5 years, along with tax records of all witnesses they'd like to call.

Don't expect Mitch to fall for this nonsense. There will be no Senate witnesses.

I could agree with shimmer, if Trump is allowed to call his own witnesses. Half the senate would be indicted after the trial.

Bolton really lit this up when he shot his mouth off and he he knew exactly what he was doing. He handed the rats this ammo for their cover up crap. It turns out Bolton is a narcissistic little brat. I never want to hear him cry about the rats ruining the country again. He’s every bit as bad as they are, worse actually.

Well, at least he didn’t say “demand”. The left tends to “demand” a lot.

I doubt Bolton knows anything germane.

House Democrats didn’t bother to even subpoena him. There’s no coverup.

If Democrats think he has the goods, why aren’t they sending their turd articles of impeachment over to the Senate? What’s stopping them?

Geez.

Can’t wait to see testimony from both Bidens, Schiff, the whistleblower, etc. Fun and games.

Hi.

“that Democrats will force votes on witnesses at the start of the impeachment trial even as Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has secured enough support to delay the decision until mid-trial.”

More mental masturbation.

I have a suggestion that should appease everyone. Kill the current articles of impeachment, open a new impeachment inquiry from the beginning and add these witnesses to the list. And while they are at it, the Republicans also get to call witnesses during the congressional sessions.

Then present impeachment articles to the Senate.

Bolton baited the Democrats. They don’t know what he has to say.

There’s the old saw never to call a witness whose answers you aren’t sure of.

Again, why didn’t House Democrats subpoena him? Chuck U should ask Nancy why they never called him.
