Knowing that the Senate Republicans would not convict Trump, the Senate Republicans voting to not allow any documents or witnesses is the BEST possible outcome for Democrats. I am extremely HAPPY.
Democrats may end up with all three branches of government in November.
Of course you are because you are a shill. No matter what the outcome was you would think it was a victory for the left.
It is sad to see someone so totally lost in their own delusions.
Yes, and more interestingly, they impute their own delusions, to us!
This was the shortest impeachment investigation in American history. It was also the narrowest grounds and thinnest record for trial. Witnesses like former national security adviser
John Bolton indicated that they were willing to testify if subpoenaed, and that a couple months would have likely secured more testimony and supportive court orders.
The impeachment case of President Nixon took only a few months to go all the way to the Supreme Court for the final decision. The rushed impeachment of Trump was guaranteed to fail, due to an incomplete and insufficient record of sufficient grounds. Yet the House insisted this was a “crime in progress” and there was no time to delay a submission to the Senate. It then immediately contradicted its rationale by waiting more than a month to submit articles of impeachment to the Senate. The House simply could not have made it easier on the president and his legal team and more obvious to the American People.
The media ignored the obvious catastrophic blunder by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her leadership. The media also ignored the unexplained decision by the House to withdraw a subpoena for top Bolton aide Charles Kupperman, who went to court as a prerequisite for testimony, the same position taken by Bolton. Before the courts could even rule, the House mooted the case by withdrawing the subpoena. That made no sense, and the court dismissed the case after concluding that the House appeared to have no interest in the witness.
House manager
Bug-eyed Schiff offered a facially dubious explanation that Kupperman had said he would litigate the issue. If Kupperman truly wanted to drag out litigation, he could have refused to appear before the House and waited for it to seek to compel his testimony. Instead, he said he just wanted a court order in favor of testifying for his own protection. Moreover, House Democrats continued to seek to compel the testimony of former White House counsel Donald McGahn, despite his continued litigation. It won that case as the House was voting on impeachment.
As all these blunders by the House became more and more obvious, all the efforts to excuse them became more and more absurd. One main defense heard in the Fake News media was that it did not matter, given the Senate Republican majority. Yet if the House was certain to lose on that record, why go forward with a case that would be so easy to defeat? Without impeachable grounds, House Democrats surrendered control of the record to the opposing party and adopted a ridiculous strategy of demanding concessions to drag out the trial without purpose, a strategy failed miserably.
