In the proceedings today, the Democrats keep repeating "overwhelming evidence" and "absolute proof" and a "clear and present danger", but the American public isn't falling for it.
Now, there's a woman babbling about "Trump invited the Russians to interfere with our elections...."

Wow, Henry Johnson (D-GA) just said that more Americans support this impeachment more now than at any time in history.
He must be looking at one of those outlier polls.
Meanwhile, apparently the focus groups told the partisan hacks, "just keep repeating 'clear and present danger' over and over".The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) "threatened our national security" "abuse of power" "contempt of congress" "overwhelming evidence" "serious abuse of power" "obstruction of congress"... wait for it.....
wow, she missed "clear and present danger"!
ETA: Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) made up for it... checking all the talking point boxes, and passionately declaring "clear and present danger". The other buzzphrase -- "No one is above the law!"Last edited by Cow Poke; 12-18-2019, 12:43 PM.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

And, it's kinda like the preacher's sermon notes where he wrote in the margin "weak point - yell louder". I think the Democrats are trying to win by emotion rather than fact.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Democrats Given Instruction: ‘Don’t Cheer,’ Act ‘Solemn’ During Impeachment Vote
theater.jpg
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has attempted to paint the poorly-polling impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump as “solemn” and “somber,” done out of duty to the Constitution, despite leading Democrats openly admitting that the president must be impeached for political reasons.
Keeping to the appearance, Democrats were reportedly given the instruction to avoid “cheering” and to “keep it solemn” during the impeachment vote on Wednesday.
“House Democratic leaders told caucus members not to cheer or applaud when today’s impeachment vote totals are announced, and Democratic members described the day as sad and solemn,” Axios reported Wednesday.
“One Democratic member from a Trump-won district said the instruction is: ‘Don’t cheer, keep it solemn,'” the report added.
And it went even further than that. Rep. Pelosi and other Democratic women wore black to signal just how “solemn” the occasion of partisan impeachment without an alleged crime actually is.
“Note: [Speaker Pelosi] is wearing black. One of her colleagues told me several of the female Democrats did that intentionally to signal it is a somber day #impeachment,” posted CNN reporter Dana Bash on Wednesday.
ETA: Madeleine Dean (D-PA) is giving a very emotional speech accusing the Republicans of "refusing to mouth" certain words.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by Tassman View PostNo. The inquiry was “done in the House” and 17 witnesses testified which has resulted in (likely) impeachment. The trial is done in the Senate.
