1. If The Shoe Were On The Other Foot - What Would The Repugs Do?.....

Think Benghazi.

Look at how they dragged that one out. How long did they have Hillary up to testify? How many sessions did they hold?

I keep reading here that we should end the impeachment trial without witnesses. That there are many other ways to get to the bottom of what happened on Jan 6th. What are those many other ways? Or is that just a 'talking point' to let the Repug Senators off the hook?

We have a spotlight on the stage of this impeachment trial right now. The whole country is glued to their TV's watching the proceedings now.

We'll lose momentum if we end this today - especially - with an acquittal.

We haven't really heard as much as a peep out of Tr**p since Jan 20th.

Do you think if he's acquitted that he'll just disappear from existence never being heard from again?

No - he'll be out there as soon as the verdict is in the Congressional Record - claiming that he's been exonerated and he'll rear his ugly head - so that he'll be front in center in our lives going forward.

We need to prevent that from happening. We need to call witnesses. Put him and the rest of the Repug Senators under a spotlight and make them very, very uncomfortable. So uncomfortable that they realize the only way out for them is to 'convict' Tr**p and rid themselves of him once and for all.
