One House Democrat's accusation amid the Trump impeachment trial “stunned” even the most moderate of Senate Republicans, reportedly prompting GOP Sen. Susan Collins to write a note to Chief Justice John Roberts about decorum on the floor of the upper chamber.
Collins, R-Maine, is the latest to signal her concerns, after impeachment manager Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., asserted earlier this week that GOP senators were engaged in a “cover-up.”
Collins told Politico she was “stunned” by Nadler’s comments, and confirmed to the outlet that she wrote a note that made its way to Roberts after a tense back and forth between Nadler and White House Chief Counsel Pat Cipollone.
[snip]Collins said she gave the note to the secretary for the majority, Laura Dove, and “shortly thereafter, the chief justice did admonish both sides. And I was glad that he did.”

Wasn’t Collins also one of the so-called GOP moderates who objected to limiting the presentations to two days?
That 24 hours each was crazy, give them 6 hours to make their case. Hope the team Trump don’t feel obliged to use their full 24.
Unless they do a better job than the Dems. If properly planned they could easily use 24 hours and make it an interesting and educational expose of the 3 years of corrupt investigations. They should have hired RUSH that would make it fun.
Wait, RUSH said he had a super secret meeting yesterday, hmmmm, maybe he will be a presenter at this trial...
Should of hired Rush
Mark Levin would be my choice
Turtle has been pissed since at least last summer when he was home with a busted shoulder and Antifa was loudly protesting in his front yard.
