Democrats should not forget that they are trying to persuade the American people...

[kentuck]

Because the Republicans are beyond persuasion.

It is a waste of time and effort to speak to them.

Speak to the American people.

That is the only way to persuade the Republican Party to change.

1. I'm pretty sure they're well aware of it

and don't need to be reminded not to forget it.

They've got this.

2. Seems to me that is exactly what they are doing.

I watched the last three hours of yesterdays evidence being presented. Clearly, the target audience was not solely the Senators.

They have the nation's attention, and they are using it very, very effectively.

3. Well said, and I agree completely: "Republicans are beyond persuasion."

4. Andrew McCarthy: "... democrats are trying to fracture the republican party by raising the profile .

... of Donald Trump knowing there's very little chance of Trump being acquitted.."

5. The only thing that makes me a little uncomfortable

is making Pence out to be a hero. I know it's part of the strategy to show the orange idiot turning on his own VP and endangering repugs as well as Dems. It just makes me a little queasy.

6. I'm really hoping there is some election ad videos coming out of this...

Senators and House members should face their votes come 2022.

7. +1 to all the above. They've got this. Our job is to "got" ourselves.

Less conceit that we can their job, more attention to whether our own performance needs improving.
