4. It's not surprising to me Hillary was so spot on for so many issues. She had access to the data.

She had access to classified data, the type of data Trump brags about knowing AND quite often shares it with the Russians.

She could see connections that were hidden away from the average American citizen.

The U.S. intelligence services have been maligned by Trump and the GOP. Maligned with memes like "fake news", "deep state", "never trumpers, and many others. Essentially lying about the validity of our intelligence agencies' findings.

Now over the last two weeks of hearing, Trump has kept access to the data from being public. More than one of the recent FACT witnesses have said: "they could have been more precise if they had their documents." How convenient for the GOP members that the witnesses were unable to produce the factual data. WHY?...because Trump wouldn't release it.

The GOP members of the Impeachment Hearings used the fact that not all the documents need were available. They played both sides of the fence.

Whining on the one hand that they didn't have access to the data that would PROVE their conspiracy theories. DEBUNKED theories.

Then on the other hand constantly making the point that all the data the witnesses where citing was second hand. How convenient for them that Trump wouldn't release the factual data.

You know Obstruction of Justice.
