What will happen is they will change the rules and make it a simple majority to convict.

That's what I'm thinking too. Rules went out the window long ago.

i don’t know. pretty weak, imo. language is kinda strange. “admitted in part...” wth. how about we admit nothing...n-o-t-h-i-n-g. because we did nothing wrong.

Back when I worked for lawyers they would never have the client admit to anything. Deny or object 99% of the time. Surprises me to see so many admissions, even if only in part.

I wish there was something that could be done. Every freedom loving person on this planet wishes there was something that could be done. I hate the fact that the Communist Democrats stole this election. But the fact is, Biden has been sworn in as the 46th President, and there is no course of action that can be taken to reverse that action. It pains me to say this but Biden is the president.

Yeah - it’s TYPOS - it’s SLOPPY. It is EMBARRASING. It is misspelling DISTRICT and SECOND AMENDMENT all over again. If you cannot get that - I CANNOT HELP YOU.

Roberts is Satanic Deep State trash.

Hell will be packed with plenty of pedophiles, homosexuals, communists, and other creeps like him once we are all dead and buried.

Bank on it.

They also used left-justification, which is a pet-peeve I inherited from the managing partner of my old firm.

But there’s no indication they’re going to pursue a Sidney Powell defense, so I’ll take what I can get. The bar has been set pretty low by this point.

Did the Electoral College vote to elect Biden or Trump? The Electoral College elects the President. That’s it. Trump’s term expired at noon on January 20th and the term of his successor began as the Constitution mandates.

Incorrect. Once this is OVER, and whatever the outcome, Trump can take it up since it is a constitutional issue.

How does one overcome the unanimous Supreme court in (Judge) Nixon, 506 U.S. 224, 234, 235 (1993)? (234) “There are two additional reasons why the Judiciary, and the Supreme Court in particular, were not chosen to have any role in impeachments.” (235) “Judicial involvement in impeachment proceedings, even if only for purposes of judicial review, is counterintuitive because it would eviscerate the ‘important constitutional check’ placed on the Judiciary by the Framers.”

THIS should be his answer - the Navarro Report:

https://peternavarro.com/the-navarro-report/

86 pages (well-footnoted) of all of the irregularities and the outright violations of the law - and their effect in terms of the number of votes. The best possible evidence that President Trump did NOT make false statements about the election, because these irregularities (which have NEVER been openly, fairly or fully examined) provide all the reason in the world for him, or any fair-minded person, to doubt the validity of the “official” election results.

President Trump would do himself and his supporters a serious disservice by NOT highlighting this information in his argument, and adding the entire report to the official record of the (sham) Senate trial.

Take heart. You are living in Great times - the Great Awakening.

Biden is NOT president... as Trump's lawyers intone, he is merely "president". I'd expect, if this sham trial actually happens, the reason for the quotes will be explained in its full glorious detail.

Trump is not the president either, of course.

To go beyond faith that Truth will prevail, that the Trump-ets will sound, you'll have to dig elsewhere. I assure you it is there, and resources to this growing by leaps daily.

Every one of us here will be part of this Great Awakening. Some already have begun, I only started scratching around 1/10. Most, will just have to be awakened by a 3 AM (YMMV) EBS.

Trump did not declare himself not the president.

See the quote marks around the word.

There is no reason for this case to be heard at all.

It needs to be thrown out

Evidenced by Chief Justice refusal to preside.

If it isn't, Trumps lawyers need to play video and show in text the multiple proofs that Maxine Waters Kamala Harris Schumer Pelosi are guilty of all that he is accused of

And also the court documents showing that he wasn't responsible for the Jan 6 riot

Also it needs to be pointed out that Pelosi was warned by the FBI ahead of time that antifa terrorists were planning the attack and actually started it as well as encouraged others to take part, as shown by videos and flyers from weeks before the pre planned attacks

Video available of antifa member planting pipe bombs at the side of the building

FBI and Pelosi (who the capitol police answer to and take instructions from when warranted ) are responsible for the attack as they did not provide security they knew would be needed.

“President Trump in my opinion, if he has any desire, should publicly announce before this sham trial that is is formally running for President in 2024...”

OOooohhhh that would be SUCH a Boss move!

They think you’re bringing your craft in for an acquiescent landing, and you — instead — slam the throttle to max, punch up the afterburners, and put the stick in your lap for a max power vertical climb.

“Papa Trump’s on CAP now, Bitchezz! THIS battlefield is MINE!”

“would eviscerate the ‘important constitutional check’ placed on the Judiciary by the Framers.”

Say what? The framers warned about out of control cabals/factions within the legislature and that is why the court HAS TO address the issue. They are co-equal branches and what this amounts to is a rogue legislature. If not slapped back into place, then we have no republic. Not that we have one left at this moment.

So, since they know they obviously can’t remove him from office, they’re desperate to keep him from having the opportunity to run again. THAT’S what this is all about; nothing more.

Basically, it's a lynching. And the Democrats have always been good at lynching those they hate.

Problem with tyranny like that is it never works out for the tyrannical leader. They always wind up dead. Either hung or shot.

Now...IF they vote to convict, how many Senators will immediately start screaming that the US Marshals or even the National Guard need to be INSTANTLY sent to wherever Trump is and arrest him without delay. He is then to be escorted to a maximum security federal prison...and every major MSM outlet is to have cameras running LIVE on ALL networks to make sure the People see the UTTER HUMILIATION of this man.

I know...but you KNOW that’s what they’re thinking.
