They should not have wasted a second on this farce. Just walk up, light a copy of the constitution on fire, then walk out the door. “this is the constitution. this is the democrat party. Any questions?”

I’m sorry I missed the first 90 minutes. Will have to go back and watch.

There goes Turtle, ignoring a reporter’s question.

Chuck will try and distract away from this fine presentation today.......channel it back to Trump inciting violence by the very ‘questions they ask’... so watch for it.

Any victory for the Trump team is a defeat for the turtles team.

the fakenews is still using the lying term “insurrection”. the President’s defense has shown the term is wrong. it is not an insurrection.

I am amused watching children who have no notion of history but are masquerading as journalists comment about the issues in this absurd trial.

The media is so full of themselves but they actually have very little substance.

I actually wasn’t going to tune in ...but knew Trumps Lawyers were up and wanted to see IF they would actually defend him....and IF they’d dare present the truth or even could.

Wow! I almost missed this....so happy I didn’t!
