(18,486 posts)testifying about what McCarthy told her about a conversation with Trump (and being subjected to a hostile cross-examination) would have on these people you think believe only what they see on video that the hundreds of hours of video of Trump over the years and the hours and hours and hours and hours of impeachment arguments and video over the past week didn't?
Nope - I just don't believe that seeing this woman testify about a phone call was going to change a thing - either in the minds of any senator, any constituent who sees it or in the annals of history.
"I didn't think Trump should be convicted on insurrection, but I saw a video of a congresswoman from Washington state testify that Kevin McCarthy told her about a conversation he had with Trump during the insurrection and it changed my mind completely - and I emailed my Senator Portman and he changed his mind, too and voted to convict" would say no one ever.
