Weeks of closed door testimony followed by weeks of Kangaroo Theater, plus shrill cries of 'crisis' have mostly turned voters sour on the mess - what miracle are you expecting the Senate to produce?

Originally posted by JimLamebrain View PostWhat the democrats are worried about is exactly what McConnell said, that he, along with the great majority of republicans, intends to violate his oath to the Constitution as well as to the Senate trial rules in order to hide relevant facts, hide the whole truth from the American people, and possibly get those few on the fence republicans to go along with the sham. What democrats want is for the American people to see the facts, to know the truth, regardless of what the republicans verdict is. Wouldn't you like to hear from direct witnesses and see all the relevant documentary evidence? Of course you wouldn't, we already know that.
So what are you worried about?Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

And please stop pretending that you care about the constitution given the contemptuous way you treated it during the circus in the House. You aren't fooling anyone and I suspect if you were honest with yourself that includes you as well.
The smartest thing for the Democrats to do would be to withdraw the articles and start afresh with Adam Schiff kept locked in his basement during the entire process.
Your complaints are all con artist spin. It's the Criminal manipulating the system to stay out of jail.
You are only complaining about what the house did because they kept the republicans from getting away with even more obstruction on behalf of your. Criminal president. There is no real interest in what is good, right, or constitutional on display by those backing Trump.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

So what are you worried about?

New reporting indicates some very bad news for Trump.
Senior White House officials tell CBS News they increasingly believe that at least four Republicans, and likely more, will vote to call witnesses. In addition to Senators Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Susan Collins of Maine, Mitt Romney of Utah and possibly Cory Gardner of Colorado, the White House also views Rand Paul of Kentucky as a "wild card" and Senator Lamar Alexander of Tennessee as an "institutionalist" who might vote to call witnesses, as one official put it.
But please continue telling me about how hopeless Pelosi is and how much she bungled things.

The Democrats will have the opportunity to present the very best opening argument they can. Do you think it will be convincing?Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

In other news, Mr. McGillicuddy and I have come to terms about replacing his garage. Maybe I shouldn't have used a live round. Anywho, good thing the garage isn't attached to the house and was empty (his 97 Buick was in the shop at the time)smiley whew.gif

Secondly, nobody seriously believes that there is some hidden "smoking gun" evidence that will suddenly appear during the trial as if this is an episode of Perry Mason where a surprise witness is dramatically introduced just as all seems lost.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
