I would like to hear from Schiff today about the appearance of the Pedo and ask that he keep his pants on & when the gasps are over with explain that as they have acquired a Constitutional Lawyer on their team to rebuke the Pedo’s takes, they will correct any lies… I. E. Alan don’t get caught with your pants down.

Good point being made. The Rs could just call Joe and Hunter to testify. That have 53 votes. It’s just BS.

Every break someone should have on Lev to tie in his recollections to go with the presentation. Senate won’t see it but voters will.

Hopefully Bloomberg’s people are planning to edit that Super Bowl commercial up to the last minute.

This is why I said a trade would be OK…

And I though this was already investigated and Joe/Obama had receipts? Is that not the case?

I thought it was already established that they did nothing wrong, allowing them to debate it again seems similar to debating if jet fuel can burn hot enough to melt steel…

Yeah This is what I’m getting at… Can’t Joe just drop in and read all that was in the report clearing Joe. And not answer anymore alough that would still cause soundbites…

Yup… Y’all are correct… Joe shouldn’t appear. :+1:

I’ll see myself out… :joy:

And have overpriced DC hotel rooms… :roll_eyes:

I DGAF about Biden per se, but I see two related downsides to horse-trading witnesses:

  1. Biden isn’t a material/relevant witness. By allowing him to testify the Democrats are implicitly conceding he’s relevant.
  2. Allowing Biden to testify allows the GOP to make Trump’s impeachment a sideshow about Biden and avoid the central issue: Trump subverting Congressional will in the same breath he subjugates foreign policy to his personal interest.

The whole reason he did the bribery was to get Biden in a negative light in the news by having an official group (in that case Ukraine) announce they are looking into him and his family.

I’m not for calling him to this trial to help trump achieve his aim by having an official group (Senate) look into him and his family.

I don’t want Biden winning the primary, but I’m not gonna be for helping trump just to potentially slightly lower Biden’s chances.

Schiff’s bit on Trump and Putin in Helsinki was very good. Would be quite damning if anyone gave a shit.

I think when this is over we’ll be able to give the Democrats at least a ā€œBā€ on production value compared to a likely ā€œFā€ for Trump’s defense team. The prosecutors are making pretty good use of stuff available off of C-Span. Have they used any clips though from a TV network? I don’t think so. So that means those clips are likely off limits. That’s good, because if they weren’t, we would be seeing that Biden clip about firing the Ukraine official repeatedly. So I expect to hear a defense with no sound bites, except maybe a couple from Jonathan Turley’s House testimony.

I think I’ve seen them use clips from PBS, ABC and CBS

I just saw one from CBS but that was from a hearing. I’m wondering if they can use interview type stuff. I haven’t seen Giuliani with Chris Cuomo or Trump with Stephanopoulos. So I’m wondering if they are limited to sound bites from media-group settings when it comes to using clips from networks?
