Evening News Spin: 100% Negative on Trump Defense, 95% Positive Dems

I wonder how "overwhelming" the public support would be if the liberal media wasn't so incredibly biased.

The TDS crowd ought to wonder why their news sources refused to airr the Republicans when they questioned witnesses during the circus in the House and didn't air Trump's lawyers presenting their case while not missing a millisecond of Schiff and covering the other Democrats as well.

If the case is so "overwhelming" why are they afraid to let you see/hear the evidence presented by the other side? Why would you even trust them at this point?

Clearly Dershorwitz with his decades of legal experience, sharp, logical mind, and consistent, substantive arguments doesn't know what he's talking about. Let's all listen to random poster on the internet who insists he's crazy instead.

This is an interesting article about Dershowitz from May 2018:

It wouldn't be the first time Dershowitz's arguments have been misconstrued.

In what way are they being misconstrued?

For one thing, notice that the article you link to contains few if any direct quotes from Dershowitz himself. That's big red flag right there.

As I have previously expressed that I'd like to see Bolton testify -- along with Schiff, Ciaramella (the non-whistleblower), and to a much lesser extent, the Bidens.

I at least want Rand to steamroll Roberts and succeed in *naming* the whistle-leaker on the record.

If that doesn't give the game away, I don't know what does. Trump is on trial for abuse of power and your interest is in the person who filed a valid whistleblower complaint that has been almost entirely corroborated by witness testimony.

You want revenge.

But he spoke in answer to Cruz, yesterday. What he said, seems to bear out the 2018 article.

Will the Repubs dare to endorse his view of Presidential powers?

It's much easier to summarily dismiss it as "Newsbusters!" and "Silly". I was actually watching the non-Fox News channels, and it the bias was crystal clear.

Yeah, cause then Shifty Schiff can finally find out who he or she is!

Except for the evening news that you watch! You are either under the impression, or fooling yourself into believing that both sides here are actually seeking the truth, but if you were honest with yourself you would realize that only one side is seeking the truth, the other is complicit with the crime and the cover-up. You're selling your country and democracy out for your team whether you are aware of it or not.

What evening news do I watch, Jim?

You are either under the impression, or fooling yourself into believing that both sides here are actually seeking the truth,

I am absolutely NOT under that impression, and I don't know why you insist on getting me so wrong.

but if you were honest with yourself

I am, and it's silly for you to imply otherwise.

you would realize that only one side is seeking the truth,

[JimL]

Please don't tell me what I want, Jim, or why I would or would not want it. I honestly don't care, because if the vote is no, this whole sham would be over sooner.... but if the vote is yes, it could drag on and on and on.... and I suspect it would backfire on the Dems.

I don't need to tell you, you admit to it yourself, even in the above. It's all just a sham, you don't want to hear evidence to the contrary, and you just want it over

I really think (and I'm not declaring that I know) that most Americans are tired of this and just want it over. Bring on the SUPER BOWL!!!!!

I have a little more faith, though it is slipping, in the character of the majority of the American people in that the truth concerning their government is more important than the superbowl.

No, Jim, what you SAID was "You are either under the impression, or fooling yourself into believing that both sides here are actually seeking the truth".....

I do not believe that EITHER side is "seeking the truth" --- the Democrats are simply seeking everything and anything they can to get rid of Trump, to the extent that they omitted a whole bunch of truth - as in any exculpatory evidence.

It's all just a sham,

Yes, it is.

you don't want to hear evidence to the contrary, and you just want it over

I really don't care --- it's a political battle and an election is just around the corner.

Well, you can pee in one hand and wish in the other, and see which fills up first.
