GOP divided over impeachment trial strategy

Divisions among Senate Republicans are muddying their strategy for a potential impeachment trial.

As lawmakers await any articles from the House, they're throwing out their own ideas on what the Senate proceeding should look like.

But Republicans disagree over the length of a trial and who should be asked to testify - two issues that will need to be worked out as part of negotiations on the rules of the trial.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said he is considering forcing a vote on the Senate floor to try to allow the White House to call its preferred witnesses, including Hunter Biden.

Hunter Biden? Sounds like your neighbor didn't knock enough sense into your head Randy.

just like the Rs are ignoring the House Ds subpoenaes. If the Rs try to force compliance with their subpoenas their double standard will be on display for all to see and then the courts will have to sort it out. I really don't feel that these witnesses should take the high ground and appear.
