      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

              Since they are measuring the same thing the movement may be meaningful. Wouldn't trust the numbers and it is WAY TOO early to predict anything about the general election.

              But it is interesting that there is movement.

                      • Yeah... it doesn't work that way. If someone challenges you in court, you can't use the court challenge itself as evidence against them.

                          Yes, you can. The Senate as jury can weigh all the evidence, including the denial by a President of legal subpoenas of witnesses and documents.

                            The economy has nothing to do with this, the Constitution, the rule of law and a criminal president does.

                              Jim, that is so incredibly naive. You WISH the economy had nothing to do with this, but since this is POLITICAL, there will be many factors to consider, not the least of which is how the American public views what's going on. Context is important.

                                Though the trial is an impeachment, i.e. political, the economy has nothing to do with the case itself. The economy means little when the Constitution and Democracy itself is at stake. If people find the president to be guilty of trampling the Constitution, risking national security, aiding Russia, corrupting the elections, all for his own personal gain, they're not going to say but hey, the economy's great so who cares. Well, maybe some of you will, but not enough of you.
