WASHINGTON — Former President Donald Trump’s lawyers are rebutting the case made by House impeachment managers as they take their turn to present arguments on day four of his trial.

The former president’s defense team has 16 hours to make their case but lead impeachment lawyer David Shoen said they would likely only use three to four hours to present their arguments.

The defense is better than day one. But, only 3-4 hours of defense?? These Senate jerks voted for this kangaroo court and should have to sit through a full 16 hour cram-it-down-their-cramholes defense.

The prosecution repeatedly called assertions of election fraud a big lie. The defense should have brought in experts from the 6 cities in 6 counties in 6 swing states to go through the massive evidence of voter fraud and election fraud. State by state. 16 hours!!

The Lindsay Graham / Mitch McConnell Baby Huey strategy of don’t mention the F-word is the usual RNC/GOP feckless strategy of bending the knee to democrats, the media and big tech.

Nice going GOP. You feed the alligators hoping to get eaten last and you still get eaten. Jerks!

I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my chest after this fabulous defense.......and it won’t matter one bit how the press twists it...not even a little!

The truth has been seen and being heard!

Great pic selection. This should be hung around the necks of the defectors as they announce resignations

Michael Van Der Veen, owns his OWN Law Firm in Philly, PA. and attorney Castro works for that Firm..

I sincerely hope that after the dinner break, they HOLD A VOTE and end this entire mess...
Liberals can own their second loss of IMPEACHMENT OF A POTUS, and now former POTUS...AND DJT is entitled to all the benefits given to all former POTUS...DJT has the right to campaign for the next four years and beyond, to help this Nation to return House of Rep's back to Republicans and to make the Senate to fall in to the hands of Republicans and send Old Charlie Schumer back to NY to get his affairs in order...the same for 81 year old, Nancy 'granny' Pelosi...both person are a disgrace to this Country. ENOUGH SAID...now, let's Roll...

Fredo might get his emmy like his brother.

I wonder what Mr. Chris Cuomo will say about him being mentioned by the Trump defense...

Taken out of context? I don't think so...He was obviously talking about Black Lives Matter protestors...Maybe Mr. Cuomo will assert that BLM protestors are morally superior to Trump supporters...

BLM protestors are morally superior...I think that's what many people believe...I don't believe that...

I agree - I think it’s good - they are even addressing the election fraud in a somewhat tangential way, by showing that the Democrats have often called past elections illegitimate.
