The first sentence would seem to indicate the senator is a blowhard and this story is just carrying his water which has no chance of prevailing. Is that about right?

No witnesses will testify. Democrats are free to call them but they won’t and we all know why.

Its all hearsay and even the Weak Sisters and Pierre Delecto won’t waste time on them.

That’s how weak is the Democrat impeachment.

“America and the eyes of history” were watching what the dems did during the house Schifft Show, apparently Chuckie wasn’t watching.

I think that would make sense. House Democrats should withdraw it and do more homework.

If they hadn’t rushed it just to meet the political calendar, they might have had something.

Instead, they find themselves holding a turd bag no one wants.

I don’t think so. The whole witness thing was pretty much dead until Bolton shot his mouth off. He did it on purpose.
If they call him the rats get to call their little parade of
punks to shove knives into the POTUS. Bolton knows that too.

You can withdraw your failed articles and do it over again calling whom ever you want remember you’re a position didn’t have a vote either.

What first hand witnesses do they have? None. Have the Democrats interviewed Bolton?

If they haven’t, how do they know he would be helpful to them?

Let them put on their case if they dare and then the Senate can decide if calling witnesses would add anything relevant to the record.

Democrats seem to have buyers’ remorse about the whole thing. If they had a slam dunk case, they would have already transmitted their impeachment.

They know as things stand, President Trump will be acquitted.

Did I miss something? Has Pelosi delivered the articles to the Senate?

None. He’s blowing hot air. Chuck U wants an open ended fishing expedition. He won’t get one.

She’s waiting for Chuck U to give her the trial she wants. That’s the stupidest excuse for holding impeachment hostage to cow the Senate.

When it’s all said and done, the trial will be conducted by the rules that Pelosi and Schumer want. The rinos will end up stuffing Mitch.

Wondering how he’s gonna do FORCE anything — being the minority and all. But he has a plan, I’m sure. As Dan Bongino said, you can say that tomorrow I’m going to bang my head against a concrete wall for five minutes. “That’s a PLAN. It doesn’t mean it’s a GOOD plan.”

All over radio and stupid cnn and other idiot tv—they are going with “John Bolton will testify”. Not if he’s not called.... so... more noise. There is no there, there.

Still no articles, and eventually the Senate has to do something else. Schumer.... is an A-hole first order, and huge freaking liar. Can you imagine a pro-Iranian.... “jew”.... yep they exist. Keep digging the hole.

Mitch counts the votes. He knows his caucus inside and out. There will be votes on the rules adoption and he’ll carry the day.
