Senate Impeachment Trial LIVE

[Varsity Flight]

The base won’t budge. This motor mouth weeks?? will fatigued the public real fast, if not already. The base won’t move. Mr. President, We have your back.

[goldstategop]

I expect it to be voted down along with all other Democrat amendments.

[1Old Pro]

Will Manchin vote with the GOP?

To acquit, yes. As will a handful of other Dem senators.

[lodi90]

LOL, yes, his posting was one of the most if not the most hyperbolic, inane of the day.

Also completely WRONG.

---

LOL. Completely correct. McConnell says he has full support for his resolution. Then an hour later submits the trial resolution with hand written last minute changes to evidence rules and duration.

Obviously, this is not going according to plan.

Check the side effects of drugs. Which one make you big eyed and SPEEDS you up? 😜

Also in this case people are tired of it!
Everyone’s mind is already made up about Trump, nothing they can say will move the numbers toward them. In fact the opposite will occur.

[Freee-dame]

I can’t stomach to watch gavel-to-gavel coverage.

Neither can I. I am so appreciative of FReepers who watch and keep us posted. Thank you.

I turned down the volume.:)

They just need soundbites for their allies in the media to use tonight.

[fatima]

Rumor has it the President wants witnesses.His advisers are against it.

[Gahanna Bob]

This is the longest hour ever.

Can’t the WH produce the cancelled check for the aid that was released prior to the end of the FY?

[milagro]

ZOE:
“Withholding the aid to Ukraine is OBVIUOSLY an impeachable offense!!
Now, regarding a document about when the aid was released...”

HUH???

[1Old Pro]

It’ll be around 4:30 pm before they vote on the rules. Then its off to the races tomorrow.

Maybe after 5pm if they both use 2 hours and take into account the 15 minute recess so far.

[goldstategop]

They just need to get four Republicans tossed out to take over the Senate.

That’s why they’re here. They know President Trump will be acquitted and be re-elected.

A Democrat Congress would be the end of MAGA.

[kosciusko51]

Is someone giving him the proverbial squeeze?

[fatima]

The elephant in the room Biden,Biden,Biden.

“Withholding the aid to Ukraine is OBVIUOSLY an impeachable offense!! Now, regarding a document about when the aid was released...” HUH??? I know, hilarious, they are forgetting they submitted only two articles, now they are creating more, fools.

[traderrob6]

I strictly adhere to Mark Twain’s adage concerning arguing with a fool.

Have a great afternoon.

That's a hail mary, the senate hold is almost a lock. But give them credit, always on the offense.

[Hatteras]

Zoe sounds like a kindergarten teacher reading a story time book to the little rug rats...

[Reily]

Maybe not! He wants to run for president in 2024. He’s got to burnish up his left wing credentials to be more acceptable the 40% nut-job wing of the Rat party. I look for a lot of left hand turns by him in the run up to 2024.
