“No sale.”

Well this isnt a “sale” to you.

This is stating that the statement isnt accurate the way it is being presented.

But go ahead and look stupid repeating it if it makes you feel better.

“The GOP fully intend to give the Democrats witnesses and deny POTUS his choice of witnesses”

Again, that is not accurate. It sounds like what people want to assume of them, but it doesnt make it true.

I’m just reporting what Rand said. If you’ve got a beef with Rand sounding the alarm take it up with him.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said that each witness will have to be approved by a majority of 51 senators — something unlikely to work in Trump’s favor. This had lead to Sen. Paul raising an alarm that only those who hate the president will obtain the necessary majority vote.

Sen. Paul explained that if there does end up being a vote for each individual witness, which could potentially be dozens, he believes that only the ones who are antagonistic to the president will get through. This means that “Hunter Biden, Joe Biden and the whistleblower may not pass a majority vote.” He said that if this is how witnesses are decided, the senate will end up with a situation like the House did — a lopsided witness list that would be mostly people hostile to the president.
