(5,340 posts)34. Parliamentary delay tactics summary - Nadler was trying to acknowledge minority counsel, but!
Theres of course a point of order, in this instance, that the witness impugned the pResident. To which, Nadler volleyed back that witnesses are not bound by the same rules of decorum as members, etc. There was a voice vote to table, collins bellyached about needing it in writing. Nadler promptly handed him a slip of paper, and then collins thanked him for following the rules. Then a roll call vote, because the fifteen repugs needed further confirmation that they are fewer than the twenty-four Dems.
