You're asking me to idly speculate about evidence that has not been presented and may never be presented. I consider that a waste of mental energy.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostAt least that's what tested well in the focus groups, although curiously, the Democrats failed to include it in the articles of impeachment.
The Repubs know it’s in there and that is why they are scared of witness testimony and documented proofs, which do exist but are so far being withheld by the POTUS and his henchmen. They will try to fudge the issue.“I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.” ― Oscar Wilde

We have already shown Trump is guilty, but need the first hand evidence Trump is hiding to force the GOP's hand on the issue.
My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

Originally posted by dirtfloor View PostWe know the story. The Senate Repubs are pretending that the proofs don’t exist by refusing to hear the witnesses. Witnesses would prove the case just as in any normal trial. Several witnesses have not been heard because Trump told them not to speak to the House.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostNah, it doesn't work that way. The problem is, the Democrats couldn't even say which specific crime it was they were supposed to be investigating. They started with the presumption that the President must be guilty of something, and they went on a fishing expedition to see what they could reel in. That's why they lacked the legal sufficiency to penetrate the executive privilege firewall, because they couldn't go before a judge and say, "This is the crime we're investigating, and this is why this witness is relevant."

Nunes was in on the “drug deal”.
House Democrats released new documents Friday evening showing extensive contact between an associate of President Trump’s personal attorney and an aide to the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee regarding the effort to obtain material from Ukrainian prosecutors that would be damaging to former vice president Joe Biden.
The text messages between Lev Parnas, who functioned as Rudolph W. Giuliani’s emissary to Ukrainian officials, and Derek Harvey, an aide to Rep. Devin Nunes, the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, indicate Nunes’s office was aware of the operation at the heart of impeachment proceedings against the president — and sought to use the information Parnas was gathering.“I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.” ― Oscar Wilde

As for a "fishing expedition", you mean like how the Clinton impeachment started off with the alleged Whitewater scandal, which came to nothing, and ended up with a tacky sex scandal which by comparison with Trump's sordid sexual history, makes Clinton's efforts look positively virginal?“He felt that his whole life was a kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.” - Douglas Adams.

New Trump lawyers:
Starr, the independent counsel who investigated President Bill Clinton, and Dershowitz, the Harvard Law emeritus professor who advised the defense team in football star O.J. Simpson’s murder trial, were announced as the newest members of Trump’s defense. The group will also include former Florida attorney general Pam Bondi and former independent counsel Robert Ray, according to Jay Sekulow, one of Trump’s personal attorneys, who will lead the defense with the White House Counsel Pat Cipollone.
The four new lawyers were selected personally by Trump for their political-legal celebrity and vocal defenses of the president in the media — and despite the significant professional baggage that several of them bring to the impeachment saga.“I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.” ― Oscar Wilde
