“”I thought he was supposed to set the table by explaining how this whole waste of time and money was Unconstitutional.””
I thought so too and was disappointed. I thought he would lead it off. He said he would speak as to the Constitution only and was not there as defense and he wouldn’t have needed 24 hours to present a case. He said anyone needing more than 2 hours knew they didn’t have a case. I hope they put him on Monday and we don’t have to wait it out for him to speak. It needs to be done immediately. I didn’t see anything that impressed me with today’s proceedings.
Dershowitz is a college professor and so his lecture would take the customary 50 minutes. Which 50 minutes of today would you have sacrificed for a lecture on constitutional law when we already know the argument because Shiffty gave it - we don't need no stinkin' high crimes and misdemeanors to peach the prez. Besides Trump's existence is a high crime.
What we got today was what we needed - 2 hrs of straightforward simple - these are the facts ma'am - rebuttal of the Dems 24hrs of droning on and on. It is exactly what the doctor ordered.
