Republicans in the Senate secured enough votes Friday evening to reject Democratic efforts to extend the Trump impeachment trial and call new witnesses, as the final vote on whether or not to remove President Trump from office could drag into next week.

10 minutes is absurd. How about 2 minutes?

He [Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn.] said the timing of these events “are totally irrelevant."

The rat is completely correct. In fact this whole sham has been totally irrelevant.

I can see you’re still pouting.

This is an impeachment, and I’d like to see it over, but if it ends Monday or Tuesday, I’m fine with it.

Millions of lives aren’t on the line like there are with the Coronavirus that is sweeping across China.

Using terms like could, might be, may not and other non definitive ones where people lives are on the line, is inexcusable.

When you grow up, this may begin to make sense to you.

Until then, pout on. And if you need to discuss this off topic subject, please return to the thread where you already made an ass out of yourself, and allow folks to discuss this matter on it’s own merits.

Well, Mitch isn’t going to call a new vote on witnesses.

This will wind down in short order.

Look, I’d like to see it end today. If it prevents Senators from campaigning, it may wind up being a win win.

They deserve to be penalized.

A weekend is a long time. There are hundreds of Obama moles burrowed deep in the Executive Branch, any one of which is willing to fabricate a new “impeachable offense” under the whistleblower protections.

Just watch what amazing shoes drop in the next couple of days!

We would have heard that no matter what.

Look, take your victory while you can.

This was a big deal. Be glad.
