Where are the leaks? Hhhhhmmmm

As sure as night turns to day, if there had even been a smidgen, a flicker, a speck of positive anything coming out of the impeachment hearings, for Trump, it would be all over fox news like a rash. Republicans would have leaked any such evidence the first chance they got. Even the hint of a way to deflect from the meat of case against Trump has not made its way out of the closed-door hearings. You know what this means? There is nothing going on in there that the Republicans want to leak. Ergo, none of the testimony has had ANYTHING positive to say about Trump. Nothing, nadda, zilch.

That is going to leave a mark...

If it can't walk like a duck and it can't quack like one, then what is it, eh?

that since there were no Democratic leaks that it was all good for Trump.

yes, that was their spin.

But, I believe the guy's opening statement was confirming the QUID PRO QUO?

If ... and that is a BIG IF ... the Ratpublicans had anything they could use to wipe the taint of corruption off of their emperor, it would have been leaked a million times out of the closed door hearings.

There are no facts that exonerate Trump, that's why they attack the process.

far worse than what is currently "out" in the public sphere.... no leaks because it's worse than what we think we know.
