Originally posted by JimL View PostNo, the Presidents actions were the cover-up, the Republican Senate, should they not convict, would be betraying their oath to protect and defend the Constitution. In other words they'd be traitors to the Constitution.
The Senate can believe that what Trump did was crass, stupid, dumb, wrong, ill-intended -- but simply doesn't rise to the level that should result in removal.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by JimL View PostWell yeah, of course. I want them to do the right thing, to defend the Constitution and protect the country from domestic enemies, and the defenders of the lawless, treasonous, wannabe dictator are not doing the right thing.
You really should try to model yourself after my friend, FF.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by Teallaura View PostThe Democrats are corrupt - and you're supporting them. The 'evidence' is garbage - and the Senate trial will be brutal because real evidence, fair procedures and transparency will show exactly how corrupt the Dems are to the American people.
I've seen estimates of upwards of fifty vulnerable seats - the Dems have one day left to pull a rabbit out of this hat - then if their own members don't revolt they will commit political hari-kari.
Failed coup.
Failed investigations.
Failed party.
Only the true blue lemmings still buy into this nonsense - and you guys will simply blindly follow your evil, corrupt party over the cliff.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostJim, even some of your 'principled Democrats' believe that what Trump did was wrong, but does not rise to the level of impeachment and removal. I bet, though, that that qualifies them as 'unprincipled' in your book.

Originally posted by JimL View PostNo, actually their stances in this impeachment inquiry is indicative of, and distinguishes between, the principled and the unprincipled, and the principled ones are the defenders of Democracy and the Constitution, the unprincipled are the defenders of the lawless, treasonous, wannabe dictator.

I said earlier in the thread, "I'm not sure what these so-called 'witnesses' have to do with anything."
Well Doug Collins has the answer: "They were there because Jerry Nadler had to figure out something to do. He has no plan."
Wednesday on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Rep. Doug Collins (R-GA) offered his theory on the day’s impeachment hearing before the House Judiciary Committee, which featured four so-called constitutional scholars weighing in on the constitutional basis of President Donald Trump’s impeachment.
The Georgia Republican, who also is the ranking Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, told host Sean Hannity the point of the hearing was to make a case where he believed the facts did not lend themselves to impeachment.
“They were there because Jerry Nadler had to figure out something to do,” he explained. “He has no plan. As I said today, the clock and the calendar, not the facts, are driving this, Sean. And, look, you know, we showed it today. Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz, John Ratcliffe, we just blew holes in it because it’s so easy.”
“We have the facts on our side,” Collins continued. “All they have is hatred of President Trump. All they have is not liking a man who came to office to do what he said he was going to do, and he’s actually doing it. When you got facts on your side, truths on your side, it will win every time.”

Fail. Jim, they brought in wild-eyed partisan pro-impeachment HACKS who talked FAR more about the need to impeach than the constitutionality of impeachment.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostPerhaps you're unaware that a previous explanation from you doesn't make the current explanation any less relevant?
The purpose was to try, yet again, to get the public to jump on board in overwhelming numbers to pressure their representatives to vote for impeachment.
