It does make sense. You want to hear the charges against you so that you can rebut them.

I disagree Schitt is scoring points. He hasn't said snything new... nothing we haven't already heard over and over and over again.

We will hear President Trump's side snd it will be devastating to Schiff's storytelling fantasy impeachment.

i do share your frustration though.....

This is an open presentation where evidentiary rules don't apply and objections cannot be made.

What are the chances the Rats will honor the no objection rule when the Pubs get their chance?

I never understand why these people cling to their office and don’t retire and enjoy life.
I guess the power is just too seductive.

I don’t think that the President’s defense is allowed to speak during the House’s presentation. By the time their rebuttal of the Dems lies come in a few days. people won’t even remember what lies were told. Those who don’t like Trump will believe the lies just as they have done up to now. Schiff and his willing accomplices in the MSM seem to be able to lie without consequence.

Look at it like bowling teams....you don’t pay much attention until your team is up! But you definately know the score you have to beat!

I’ve always wondered about the similarity to a drug user who after years of getting their fix, and especially the need for more and more to get that “high” suddenly experiencing withdrawal...

McConnell could have made ANY Rule changes to benefit our side instead the rats again are in the drivers seat!

Impatient are we?

McConnell could not make any rule changes 'he' wanted.

Making the prosecution go first and present their entire case is far an away the best practice.

The President's legal team will then have a clear path of rebuttal with no interruptions or objections, and no opportunity for prosecutorial rebuttal during that time.

There will be 16 hours for written questions from the Senators once the defense in done.

Stop wringing your hands. It serves no purpose.

That would then become the responsibility of the Chief Justice to admonish them. It won't happen.

At that point he would admonish BOTH sides.

People remember the last thing they were told, not the first. Those who tuned in early will forget what they heard within a day or two. American attention spans are extremely short.

Did the House presenters take an oath or just the jury (Senators)? I do not understand allowing so much lying.

Have you ever actually SEEN a Democrat?

‘Power’ is most definately addictive....esepecially all the wealthy perks which com with it. Pelosi’s a great example of being fully addicted to the power she welds. She showed this even when Hillary ran... Pelosi boasted with her cocky smile that in reality she was the first woman to break the glass ceiling. And any who confronts her walls will get met with a “Don’t mess with me!”.....She knows when her line of supply is jolted.

Demon-rats are loud and obnoxious, but most of them don't really appreciate the inside of a prison cell.

They are to remain silent during the trial under fear of imprisonment.
