The Former Presidency of Donald J. Trump, Volume XI: The Crypt Keeper Years

So they approve witnesses and then decide to call no witnesses

LOL IMPEACHAMENTS

LOL DEMS EVERY GODDAMN TIME

You get them all panicked, clearly indicating you’re doing exactly the right thing, then just give up. Jesus fucking christ.

If you’re not gonna call them fine, but voting to do it then not doing it is just the most Dems gonna Dems whistledick bullshit move imaginable.

Once had opposing counsel go off on the judge presiding over the trial becuase the attorney was so dumb and bad on the law that the judge laughed at one of his arguments. Can confirm, not a good sign.

Pretty sure we have Schumer to blame for this. He did not want witnesses

I’ve found that having a ridiculously inept defense attorney can sometimes generate sympathy with the jury. Obviously not what’s happening here of course.

I’m struggling to believe the last few posts. No witnesses? Holy shit.

Completely disagree with people saying this is theater, don’t drag it out. That’s wrong. You want Dems to learn something from the Rs? Well here it is, that shit works! Benghazi these assholes into submission. It’s a war of attrition. Subpoena witnesses. Let them fight it, spend money, tie up the courts, whatever. After the trial, the investigations should go on. Rub their faces in the truth at every opportunity.

This is indefensible.

If you want to skip witnesses, skip witnesses. It was a close call.

To take a vote on it, win, then back down when the other side freaks out is just indefensible. These people just don’t get it.

2022 is a long way away but this is just so demoralizing for Democratic voters. They just never deliver. “The other guys are bad” isn’t going to cut it forever.

They agreed to read some fucking statement and call it a day. LOL Dems.

The problem with this is that the Senate can’t do other business during an impeachment trial without unanimous consent, and there’s a lot of important other business that needs doing.

This idiocy even broke Rupar.

Thought someone upthread said the Senate is in recess for 10 days.

I mean, idk but I just find it very hard to believe that if they couldn’t do it in parallel that they couldn’t just do trial work 3 days a week or whatever.

This was posted earlier.

Did Rs ever for one minute stop being dicks while they were passing tax cuts?

Lol democrats going to dem. They could not have played this any more poorly.

We’re gonna call a whole slew of witnesses and really stick it to those Trump laywers.

Yeah, I give up. I’m gonna watch a guy try to beat GTA V without getting hit once instead. Somehow that’s a less futile task than expecting the dems not to totally fuck up

They just have no connection to their base. None. I think most are decent people but they’re just fucking losers. So weak.
