I watched it. Sen. Ernst is absolutely correct. The democrats’ entire case was destroyed in just 2 hours. And they didn’t even have to go after Biden, and that line of argument would only enhance the rightness of President Trump worrying about corruption in Ukraine. {I have never been offered a job in Ukraine sitting on a board for 83K a month. I have no experience in natural gas, and I’ve never been convicted of a drug offense and kicked out of the military}.
The PROOF that the dem case was shredded is that the democrats immediately started harping on MORE WITNESSES. The Trump team very smartly included the comment that the president was denied due process in the House hearings.
The dems thought that meant they had the right to ask for witnesses, too, but they’d already been harping on that for weeks because of their weak case. So...they jumped at asking for witnesses based on the TrumpTeam lawyers decrying the unfair way in which the president was treated.
But what we really have is the ignorant argument by them that, because Trump was held hostage by the terrorist House, that that means the terrorists should be provided with free room and board afterwards. Take a hostage and get rewarded?
They’ve got to be kidding.

But while you were married, did you have an affair with your brother’s wife, and marry her when your brother died? Did you commit the crime of identity theft? Did China give you $1.5 million for no particular reason?
