Also setting a precedent for future cases.

i say we cannot trust the SCOTUS to take these election case(s) or rule correctly. THIS is the forum to bring the 'receipts' in front of ALL of Congress and show the election fraud. THIS is the only way to put a stamp of ILLEGITIMATE on Biden's 4 years. It also gives the Repubics some high ground to work from.

I think his response should be “Nuts.”

Show up and create a raucous at the gate. Bingo, they don’t let him in.

I probably wouldn’t go because it gives legitmacy to it and will set a precedent for the future.

My take is that they cannot try him because he is gone already. This is the message that should be sent to the public.

You persuade me. Here is my shot at opening words by MY President. ....and closing

In the pursuit of Justice, there can be no insurrection. I AM commanded by my Oath as President of the United States of America to see that laws are faithfully executed and followed. To do less, would be following in the footsteps of the Senators who seek to impeach me for my perfectly honorable actions in defense of Democracy. I will not follow this easy and political path. I will take the hard and stony path to truth and Justice, for that is the American way.

To stand at the dock, in this pit of vipers is a sign of honor, not disgrace. It is akin to being judged by fascists, in a kangaroo court, as 75 Million say loudly, I find no fault with this man. Leahy and Shumer of the modern day Sanhedrin cry out CRUCIFY HIM, what hatred they have for the one honest man in this town.

I profess, I am not christ, nor do I claim to be close to a perfect man, but I will not stand silent as I am flogged by the harridans of the main stream media. Called INSURRECTIONIST for investigating a fraudulent election, and rallying The great people of America behind this cause of Justice. I will cry out to my dying day, I AM INNOCENT.

The accused is not the only person who will be judged by this process, the ACCUSERS are on display for acts much worse than I AM charged with. They who pervert their sacred duty to SERVE the people of this great country, ought to be ashamed to show their faces in their home districts again. It is likely why they are building a prison wall around the halls of government. To keep voters from the ability and RIGHT to petition these Public servants for redress of grievances.

If you are to judge anyone, is it not the corrupted process of elections that should be judged, faulty, thrown out and replaced with a surer way?

A Nationally exact method of controlling elections and counting ballots that is locked in to the following.

ONE) a Free Identification card.

TWO) tied to a Birth Certificate.

This will assure that all Legal, and of age citizens have one and only one vote, and no other shall be cast or counted.

For what are we here for, but a conflict over how corrupt officials at the National and State level, can connive, conspire and DID STEAL the priceless gift of the founders of this country. This gift, handed down from generation to generation, is no longer cherished. It is held up by Politicians, who I may add are nearly 100% Lawyers, dare I say Liars, only to be stolen in select districts, by vile and dark men. Using slick methods, and bending clear meanings of words to fit their need.

I came only to say those words, and a few more. This body has not jurisdiction, nor standing to judge me. Pat Leahy is old, feeble and no judge. Pelosi head of the accusers once tore up my State of the Union speech. I now return the favor to this old, tired woman. (instruction to defendant)Tear up a copy of the impeachment charges.

In closing I say this simple sentence.

“I WILL NOT SIT HERE AND LISTEN TO THESE SCOUNDRELS BADMOUTH THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” GOOD DAY SIRS....spin on his heel and walk out as a supporter plays Hail to the Chief and Marine guards smartly salute.

It is a show, may as well play it like it is one. Admit it, this is good, and I would be standing and cheering along with 80 million Americans

I agree that the SCOTUS will cop out, but I disagree with the forum. As HRC would say, “What difference does it make?”

Fighting now might get a Trump conviction and exclusion from future office. It certainly will NOT put him in the White House.

A better way is to plan long-term, and pick the battle on our own turf ... The state houses.

"Also setting a precedent for future cases."

The only 'precedent' being set here, is Madame Defarge using and abusing Delta technique to wear down ANY potential resistance by her nimrod House freshwomen and Squat second-termers, to use Impeachment as a personal political cudgel, rather than the rare Constitutional invest that it was, until she took office.

She is purposefully denigrating the act of Impeachment so that she can successfully depose Xiden later this year.

” If we choose to fight now, then the RINOs will vote to impeach”

You think RINOs will be convinced to vote to impeach if the election fraud evidence is shown?

My God...that is fascinating. I don’t understand why Trump didn’t get better help! Even without knowing what I just read I wondered why he had Guiliani at the helm - especially after seeing the hair dye incident. Is Mediocrity Mark Meadows? Jenna Ellis? I noticed on Twitter Jenna seemed to spend more effort posting scripture quotes than anything about the GIANT problem at hand.

Can’t wait to find out why POTUS didn’t use the NG and the US Marshalls to do a recount.

And now Trump has zero lawyers for Tuesday? What is going on?

Once again you must consider the “Jury”. They have already determined the Evidence is False. When presented the MSM will continue to gaslight America. Nothing will change.

This is the OJ Simpson Trial of Elections.

In a word, “yes”. Namely because any and all “proof” is of a theoretical and mathematical nature. Evidence that might normally be acceptable in a court of law investigating white-collar crime but would not be tolerated by this kangaroo court.

The only evidence that could be accepted is personal knowledge of felonious activity that is corroborated by physical ballots. If course, those have since been shredded.

Just finished reading Mr. Byrne’s chapter one. Who do you think the Mediocrity is? Of course, it would only be supposition...and understand if you decline.

The problem....well, one of the many...is that he won’t even be dealing with an actual judge who might have some idea of how to conduct the proceedings. Lefty Dem Patrick Leahy will be ‘presiding.” That leaves a lot of room for somebody who is not a lawyer (Trump) to go seriously wrong, since Leahy will be making it up as he goes along.

I don’t see how that’s even legal.

He needs to stop. This is now about the future of the Republican Party, not just him. he needs to be smart about it.

What future? The election theft is not just about Trump personally. It still is the most important issue there is for the nation as a whole. If allowed to stand without at a bare minimum a full presentation of the facts before the American people, then there is no tomorrow. Leftist theft will become standard practice, and there will be no point in continuing to try to oppose them politically. They will simply cheat to win everything, and the media and courts will cover up their crimes, and in fact call US the criminals for daring to question it.

If we don’t break through this wall of crime and deception, nothing else matters. No matter how much the Left and their media lapdogs try to ridicule those who question the election result, we MUST devote every possible resource to piercing that veil of deception. EVERYTHING depends upon it.

In 4 years, Pelosi will be retired or “”””. She may as well practice holding a lily on her chest in 3 years.

"Then let’s just lay down and die. There are people out here who are still trying to save the Country. Sorry you would just like to see revenge."

Did you think that JUST MAYBE continuing to kiss the asses of the GOPe was not the best way to save the country? "If" Trump can accomplish true reform and leave some semblance of the GOP party intact, fine. If it has to be destroyed, also fine. "I" go with Trump.

Nobody said word one about quitting except YOU.
