‘NO BRAINER’ Trump ‘told to represent HIMSELF at impeachment trial’ in dramatic move after ‘parting ways’ with five top lawyers
The Sun ^ | 1/31/2021 | Laura Gesualdi-Gilmore

"If you're Trump this is rather a no brainer," wrote Twitter user Janet Mullins Grisson, in regards to Trump representing himself.

"With Senate Rs aka the jury on the record that impeaching former president is unconstitutional why spend money on lawyers?"

The news of the legal shakeup online has garnered many similar responses, especially with the impeachment trial set to begin the week of February 8.

“Should Trump represent himself? I’m no lawyer, but I’d strongly advise against that. Chief Justice Roberts has already said that he would not preside over this farce. So Senate president pro tempore Patrick Leahy will preside. Leahy is VERY partisan. Leahy would try to embarrass Trump at every turn. He’d rule Trump out of order should Trump just say “Good morning.” Stay far away from this, Mr. Trump.”

I agree. Pres. Trump will have plenty of opportunities later to hammer home the corrupt nature of the [s]election.

An illegal international adoption might have been enough to force his resignation. But the whole issue was hushed, even by the leftist NYT, who spike their investigation into Roberts’ adoption of Irish kids via Latin America.

Hopefully they don’t.

But if you think that the media will air claims of election fraud, I don’t believe they will. They will cut away, not carry those portions, etc.

It’s just the way it is.

You are correct to a point — it will be covered in its entirety by C-Span, OAN, Newsmak, Maybe Fox, but the other networks are all circle-jerking group-think anyway. Their audiences will never believe their lying eyes if they did see it

It will seep out.

I expect RSBN will cover it from beginning to end.

Maybe not Newsmax. They stopped covering important events not long ago, along with Fox. It seems Newsmax checks to see what Fox is doing and they copy-cat it. OAN and RSBN were covering everything. C-span covered most of it.

He shouldn't show up at all, just send a memo saying it's unconstitutional and he refuses to participate in a farce. What are they going to do? Kick him out of office?

If he dignifies this kangaroo court with his presence then he's lost, just ignore these hacks. He should play golf instead.

" Oh, please grow up. People have concerns about Rudy and how he handled the 2020 Election cases and strategy. And you roll out that lame crap?"

By "lame crap", your short yardstick, in horse standards, would lead thusly to a can in the abbatoir, no doubt...
