Just lie.
They should be fined for intentionally lying.
I have watched all the hearings.
Lies are all they have or ever had.
They are vile.
nolabear
(42,001 posts)The Senators in that chamber have no illusions about any of this. This is for the 2020 voter because they know he'll get off.
I could scream.
Mersky
(4,986 posts)Seems like hes violating his lawyerly ethics pledge, and Bar license on national tv.
He rather alarmingly lied about the nature of the less-than-perfect phone call. Thats just one... and its a big one.

(4,986 posts)Are some of the standard lies weve already heard, just repackaged that cause the argumentation to divert away from the real facts, and it is exhausting.

He's just throwing out words.
It's a "partisan impeachment" because of Mitch.

(36,186 posts)The Bigass Schiff Attack.
Words like "concocting" "lock the president out," AND "will Mr Schiff give documents?!" "we're still waiting for whistleblower documents!" "YOU"RE on trial, Senate! "think about it!" "its's common sense"
"if i showed up in court... my case is overwhelming, i need more evidence ... I'd be thrown out and that's what should happen here...
what are the stakes -- an election!" "A partisan impeachment they've delivered to you to support their election" "They're here to steal TWO elections -- remove Trump from the ballot! -- they just don't have the nerve to tell you that!"
"My point: it's long past time that we start this and end it so we can go have an election!"
Fuck that whiny slime Cshipollone.

And Moscow Mitch is doing his best to make sure nobody else does either.

(23,686 posts)and they were saying it was interesting to see the looks on senators faces, some looking sleepy, Klobuchar intent, Romney taking notes.. how are they seeing this
✌🏼
I think they must have runners going in and out with written notes, because I believe its the case that electronic devices arent allowed-in. Is arcane and stupid.

(58,785 posts)in a senate trial. Remember, we've also put the Republicans on trial. Let them hang themselves.
When and if our Democratic senators give up and announce the Republicans broke their solemn oaths and did not allow the senate to perform its constitutional duty, then I will.
BannonsLiver
(16,539 posts)Hortensis
(58,785 posts)Imo, that's an argument for continuing to call it the senate impeachment trial, but, hey, we can go to town. The standard here is mostly just don't bash Democrats.
BannonsLiver
(16,539 posts)I dont know anyone who is even remotely objective calling it that. Its not a trial. Well agree to disagree.
Hortensis
(58,785 posts)Their behavior in trashing this solemn proceeding is no template for me to follow. As our party leaders keep trying to impress.
You've taken offense, and I didn't mean that because I agree the Repubs aren't allowing a genuine trial. We knew they wouldn't. Just commenting on what we're trying to do here.

(33,525 posts)If the Senate issued the subpoena Schumer calls for, the response by the WH would PROVE Article 2.
