The jury is tainted (Senate GOP) and has already decided to acquit. No matter what.
The old skunks from OJ and Clinton being brought back are just for show ie: Trumps impeachment reality show. All of his defense team are irrelevant. Senate will acquit no matter what.
Our only chance to remove the big orange turd from our national living room rug is in November.
Period.
The rest is just noise at this point, because Republicans dont give a rats ass about our country or its laws - only about their own party and their own power.

(16,616 posts)Trump does want to turn this into a TV carnival, but I'll at least watch the prosecution's case, some of the procedural affairs, and, if there are any, the witnesses.
His defense counsel choices are predictably despicable, especially Dershowitz.

There is nothing in dispute. The POTUS admitted to the first article and it was confirmed by all witnesses and backed-up by the GAO as against the law. The charges in the second article are facts as well not in dispute. There shouldn't even be a trial; the GOP Senators should make him resign for the good of the country/world. To argue that this man - not someone other hypothetical President - but THIS President shouldn't be removed from office for THESE offenses is crazy town, pure and simple.
