Are you ready for the SHITSHOW???

[Wawannabe]

Starting in T-10 minutes?

Imma try to make it through, but ... I have a extremely low tolerance for SHITSHOWS!

[idziak4ever1234]

1. The fact that you are willing to try proves you are 100X better than me.

[Irish_Dem]

2. I refuse to watch or I will do an Elvis at my TV.

[Initech]

25. Ah, this show ain't no good!

[Irish_Dem]

27. Hilarious, this is me watching the Trump defense today!

[Wawannabe]

39. Told my roomie I would turn it off

BEFORE I threw something at his TV.

[Initech]

41. I wonder how many TVs will get damaged today?

[hlthe2b]

3. I've tried, but I have no tolerance for blatant lies, misrepresentations, and spin

I will monitor some real-time blogs and DU, but won't tune back in until the Q&A begins.

[RKP5637]

7. Yes, I'm good for a few minutes of it here and there, but not the whole dose. Like you, I'll

do Q&A.

[RKP5637]

4. Make sure you have your Hazmat viewing goggles on! n/t

[calguy]

5. I'm going to skip it today

I heard enough whataboutisms the last time those two jokers hit the stand.
I for one am ready to get this thing over with and focus on Joe's agenda.

[lagomorph777]

6. Nah. I'll wait for the "highlights" - or "lowlights" in this case...

[PirateRo]

8. Not really, I'm debating finishing Agents of SHIELD or No Man's Sky...but you know, we missed a step

We really should have planned a bingo card ahead of this debacle. Maybe had a collection for a first prize and two second prizes....

[Wawannabe]

10. True!

Or drinking game.

We SUCK!

[PirateRo]

14. Oh, a drinking game, even better :)

I left the administrators a suggestion.

[andym]

9. Trump's lawyers will state the Dems did the same thing-- calls for the public to fight etc

No matter how out of context the statements are. How do I know?-- I went over and looked at what Fox News is trying to do to salvage Trump's reputation. They will literally try to normalize Trump's behavior by both-siderism. They need to hand out talking points to Trumpers.

[EndlessWire]

40. I agree. n/t

[jrthin]

11. Yes. When it start I'll turn to Paternity Court or

some judge show.

[NRaleighLiberal]

12. no, got some nails to drive into my fingernails.

[Wawannabe]

13. I have pliers!

Can help you with RIPPING them off. If you prefer...

[NRaleighLiberal]

18. I just can't do it.

We've largely had TV turned off for 11 years. I never watched trump his entire vomitorious tenure.

we've just eased back to watching BBC World News, then PBS Newshour, nightly via our Roku. That's it - then the TV goes off and it is movie time.

DU gives me the news I need to know on a daily basis, augmented by TPM, NYT, Slate.

[lindysalsagal]

15. Gonna be senators scaring other senators out of convicting

nothing about klansman.

[MontanaMama]

16. Nope.

Can’t/won’t listen. Headed to work for a little bit but I’ll check in here with you brave souls to see what’s what.

[Lars39]

17. I'm going to watch it.

[Wawannabe]

19. Here weeeeeeeweeeeeeweeeeee go!

[PRETZEL]

20. We'll definately watch

or at least my wife will and I'll be listening in the other room trying to get some work done.

Yeah, it'll be a shitshow of bothsiderism, 1st Amendment bullshit, rioters misinterpreted his words.

But it's their right to put on whatever defense they feel is best for their client, so we should let them do so.

Then laugh out loud when they're done.

[Wawannabe]

21. No thinking person...

Is on the defense team of djt.

What a fucking statement!

[nolabear]

22. UnConstitutional out of the gate. And ridiculous as hell!

Is he serious? Nothing could be construed as promoting that riot?

[RKP5637]

24. And then, FFS, a "politically motivated witch hunt." n/t

[RKP5637]

23. Well, I shut if off after they called it a "politically motivated witch hunt." I can only tolerate so

much republican bullshit a day.

[Initech]

26. Who needs butter? I got plenty!

[underpants]

29. The leader of Antifa was arrested? There's a leader of Antifa????

[Wawannabe]

31. Also said. The first arrested!

I lmao!

Who was that? What IS the leader of Antifa’s name??

[underpants]

33. Proud Boy (informant) was the first arrested I thought

But he must also lead Antifa

[Initech]

42. OMFG - I figured it wouldn't be long before they went there!

[underpants]

43. This guy

[Wawannabe]

28. Just made a hot toddy with a big ass shot

Of Tullamore D.E.W.

[EndlessWire]

30. I don't know if they'll buy it.

They showed members in the 2016 session trying to object to Trump's electors. Well, they were in session, not on a podium inciting violence, and in the face of Russian interference, showed courage. I don't think it helped.

[EndlessWire]

32. Yeah

We knew they would bring Antifa up...

Here's the reason the House Managers did not bring up the stand down of the Guard...bringing up the DC Mayor's request for no more back up.

[EndlessWire]

34. So far, nothing.

Bringing up other incidents of violence that has happened. You all know them. Nothing directly on point.

[Wawannabe]

35. His scorn is MISPLACED

A total freak show

[RANDYWILDMAN]

36. it all red meat for Maga fans

nothing more

[JohnnyLib2]

46. Sure is, amplified by Fox.

SOP.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

47. Nice Fox cares, NOW

What a joke

[JohnQFunk]

37. Where's the laugh track? 🔚

[EndlessWire]

38. Moving on to unconstitutionality

of the trial...which was already decided on the first day.

UNITY? HEALING? We'll all be healed if we know for sure that this aberrant, vile, evil wannabe dictator never, ever can return to bother us again. He has to be put down.

Starting to picture Trump with a little black moustache.

[EndlessWire]

44. Integrity of the evidence

This is sounding like Trump's court cases, where it was found by virtually all judges that no evidence of their claims was brought forward.

[EndlessWire]

45. OMG, they are displaying a typo

to refute the charge. They are claiming that some woman who wrote Calvary when she meant cavalry was just calling out a Jesus scenario. What rubbish.

[Wawannabe]

48. I know!

There should have been a lightening strike straight outta heaven and that fucker should be smokin!

[EndlessWire]

49. LOL! n/t

[EndlessWire]

50. Context is king

None of those "fight" clips are anything like what Donnie Two Times did. They did not invite armed individuals to DC or urge them to march to the Capitol, and state that they would go with them.

Donald Trump got 7 people killed. Donald Trump stood by without calling for help to stop the riot. The NY major doesn't run the Capitol. Trump was charged with protecting us there.

Trump should be impeached for incitement, and then standing by without taking action. He isn't, and never was, competent to run the show for us.
