Sorry but the whole fiasco would have been worthwhile if Trumps lawyers could have called Paul Pelosi to testify. Nancys son did exactly the same thing in the Ukraine as Hunter Biden. Trumps lawyers could have demonstrated the corruption and the way money was funneled to Biden, Pelosi, Schiff, Kerry, Romney and other Democrats. Trump would have been vindicated in his desire to investigate the corruption and acquitted. Also Nancy could have used her shiny new pen to sign her resignation letter and Pauls bail bond. It would have been great to destroy the vile Democratic Party.

You could still get your wish.
That's possible under two scenario's; witnesses in the current proceeding are allowed (which this morning seems unlikely) or as the result of years-long litigation initiated sometime in the future.
While no one is going to jail as a direct result of the current "trial", this proceeding could be a very productive and exciting first step that facilitates criminal litigation to follow.
It is easy to imagine there is substantial pressure on both the client and his legal counsel to seize the moment. The controlling question may be whether it is thought wise to use the Senate for such purpose. The answer may be the Senate is exactly where an attempted political overthrow largely supported by criminal behavior should be exposed to the nation.
