...and just what witnesses do you think will NOT be called? Let's just see what happens with the questioning beginning today. I expect one slim necked manager will feel a tightening of the collar and a dry throat.
It’s a good question about which witnesses will be called. I’m for as many witnesses as is needed to get a full understanding of what actually happened with the Ukraine aid and as many witnesses as is needed to explore Trump’s defense. Donald Trump has the right to completely air out his defense about Hunter Biden and Ukraine and Joe Biden and Crowdstrike. Please note I am saying this and I don’t believe one word of Trump’s defense. It should be his right to provide whatever vigorous defense he can. Even if it is cockamamie nonsense and lies. This is no joke we all really need to know what happened.
Reader---of course as usual , the Leftist above is making up things. ---There was never a mention by me that statutory crimes be present for impeachment and removal. As you can see, there are no statutory crimes alleged in The Sham Articles. ------and there are no High Crimes or Misdemeanor listed either. The standard is for High Crimes and Misdemeanors. ---and yes, Reader----I am a strict Constitutionalist and Traditionalist. Likely, the most unwavering on the board.
Good for you. Fact: there is no need to show a violation of a statutory law for impeachment or removal.
Never have I ever interacted with a person as smart as you are are - who so consistently arrives at an incorrect conclusion or makes a prediction which fails. (save science). Your track record on this board is amazingly close to zero percent correct on any issues you spend any time arguing. Its almost like you turn your brain and your personal integrity off when you write about anything outside science. You appear to be a soulless mercenary with a pen who does not give a shit about the next generation of Americans.
by the way... you all see the kabuki going on? after weeks of acting like McConnell had "Darth Vader like control" (from the dem perspective) Surprise... today he tells us he doesn't have the votes. Schumer and Pelosi will get what they want all along. So now... I wonder if they will even get a Biden to testify. Or if some other group of republican senators have determined ahead of time their testimony will be irrelevant... and now we need to speed things up. Will Trump even get a truly important witness? By the way its the same act... They did this on Obamacare. McCain orchestrated to cast the vote killer. They do it on tax breaks we care about..( oh the budget matters) They do it on spending (all we will get the cuts in 10 years.) They did on immigration... . They tried to really screw us on immigration years back... Boehner and Ryan did this McConnell trick to the base all the time. Everything they run on which conflicts with their big donors oh we don't have the votes... Unless some heroic moves are made by conservatives... its now 75% chance Trump is out. imo. Based on how similar this bit of kabuki is too all the others. ( i don't know about the results of the horse trading and the cigars in the back room... I just promise you... that is where this is being decided and what were are seeing is a play.)
If the GOP Senators flub this the Senate will go to the Democrats in 2020. They never supported the President and they want the opportunity to grandstand. Disgusting.
