    Guilty of what? Winning an election?

    The House Committee Members differ greatly, depending on which side they are on.

    Now, the Democrats pretty much sound like the lawyers. They are all about the nitty gritty. Unpacking the details behind each event, each phone call, meeting, text, etc.

    The Republicans spend inordinate amounts of time talking about the Democrats, conspiracy theories about the Bidens, and making lots of false statements about constant impeachment attempts, and characterizing the Mueller investigation in a partisan way. Why are they even talking about the Mueller investigation? It has nothing to do with the hearings.

    The reason, of course, is that the Republicans have no defense of the President. They have no way to make what happened unhappen.

    The President is guilty of attempted bribery in trying to offer already-agreed-upon military aid to Ukraine conditional upon Zelenski making a public announcement of investigations into his pet propaganda theories involving the Bidens and Russian collusion in the 2016 election.
    IMO Daniel Goldman is running rings around Steve Castor. Castor often seems like he's struggling.

    Agreed. But of course, Castor doesn't have much to work with. Nit picking at minor details that make no difference to the body of the evidence.

    What evidence is that?

    Quid pro quo, "this for that' is a poor description. Trump is wrong on both sides of that equation. He has no right to interfere in the aid the Congress passed for Ukraine. But as you would expect, he figured he could leverage it to his advantage. So he took it over. And of course, asking Ukraine to SAY they were investigating the Bidens to help his election is a typical Trump low. Both sides of it has Trump breaking laws and norms. Trump is disgusting.

    Based on the evidence seen so far Trump is guilty. Also, President Trump had every opportunity to come, be sworn in, and give testimony under oath to tell the truth, if he wanted to tell his side of the story. With him spouting off on twitter we have no assurance that he's not lying. We should know better than to listen to President Trump unless he's sworn to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

    President Trump could still do that. What's he afraid of? Getting caught up in his own lies?

    Trump knows the truth. That is why he refuses to testify under oath and prohibited anyone he ever met from answering subpoenas to testify. These are not the actions of an innocent man. I suspect Trump knows he is fading mentally. That is why no press conferences either. He should not run again, but he needs to get help from the statute of limitations. Many of his crimes will drop off the calendar. He does not want to spend his last years in courts or in jail.
