Bang Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 How absolutely ****ing disgusting that truth is the furthest thing from their minds, and they say so without even considering that is what they are doing ~Banging my head against a ****ing wall.

Simmsy Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 When Trump is gone and the GOP loses power, we need to strengthen the Constitution. It has no teeth, its weak and apparently has the power of a dirty "post-it note" that no longer sticks to the fridge. Hopefully, the next Dem president will go after these people after the fact.

visionary Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Hmmm. I'm wondering though, would it be better to have witnesses and then acquittal or to have the Republicans reject witnesses outright and acquit Trump without hearing from them in the trial. Does it matter? Not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llevron Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 If he’s making a show of it then I don’t expect him to do the right thing. Also, Republican. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it matter? Not sure. In terms of politics, it's probably better to have no witnesses. Democrats can use it as a huge rallying and get out the vote moment. It surely proves that the entire Republican Cult is corrupt. In terms of the country, it would be better to have witnesses. Truth ought to be served. If, the Republicans vote for no witnesses and no documents I hope the Republicans throw a huge celebration and get so fat and happy even the Russians don't turn out to vote for them in 2020.

Dan T. Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 At this point it’s better strategically for the righteous if the GOP votes no witnesses. They were NEVER going to convict Trump, no matter what Bolton had to say. A vote for no witnesses forever taints this trial and can be used as a cudgel against Trump’s inevitable bleats of exoneration. Especially when Bolton’s book comes out and confirms the House managers’ case. And all those who voted no can be painted as cowards, plain and simple. Edit:: What Burgold said.

Hersh Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I wonder if Trump's lawyers have friends that are Democrats and if they do, will they after this week. These are horrible people with no values beyond money and power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma There Goes That Man Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Jesus Christ. Are we also going to discuss all the opposite positions Graham and the rest of the GOP clown show have taken since the Clinton witch hunt when that article isn’t really in the same scenario.
