Seems the prosecution opening arguments had senators struggling to stay awake...
Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Jim Risch (R-RI) was the only one seen nodding off on Tuesday, but multiple senators were visibly tired on Wednesday, with both Republicans and Democrat senators caught appearing to be sleeping.
Within the first hour on Wednesday, Senate Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Mark Warner (D-VA) was seen leaning on his right arm with a hand covering his eyes, according to the Associated Press.
“He stayed that way for around 20 minutes, then shifted to rest his chin in the same hand, eyes closed, for about five more minutes,” the AP reported.
Also caught appearing to nod off was 2020 presidential candidate Bernie Sanders (I-VT), according to Courthouse News...
C-SPAN’s Craig Caplan reported that senators off-camera were seen yawning and rubbing their eyes.
...
Huffington Post’s justice reporter Ryan Reilly noted that senators on both sides of the aisle were disappearing: "Senators are getting pretty lax on attendance as the impeachment trial drags on. At one point I counted 14 empty seats on the Republican side and 13 on the Democratic side."
...
“The repetition and the long hours in back-to-back days of proceedings have left some senators yawning, stretching and pacing,” [the AP] reported.
Yahoo reported that other senators were seen passing notes and doing crossword puzzles.

And yet liberal pundits are selling this like it was one of the all time greatest legal presentations in history and as riveting as an episode of Law & Order. Perhaps they're not being entirely honest.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

And yet he's still giving the Democrats every opportunity to convince 2/3 of the Senate that Trump should be removed from office. It's not his fault that the Democrat's case is so weak, and he has no obligation to help them prop it up.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

McConnell prior to the trial: "There is no way this President is going to be impeached."
