Why won’t the retRumplicans call witnesses?

They'll fight testimony from those guys tooth and nail; they would be the last torpedo to send the sinking SS Trumptanic to Davy Jones' locker. Mitch is really going to have to walk a tightrope here. Most of the (D)s' witnesses are credible. The Reichwing Noise Machine has spent weeks now trying to impugn them anyways, and screeching (falsely) that poor POTUS's defenders weren't allowed to question them. Having them front and center in the Senate, for both sides to query, would destroy both of those "defenses."

I care because I care about justice, the truth should come out. The more Americans know the more just the result will be. I believe in the facts being exposed not hidden. IF the facts are exposed, justice will be done. If the facts are hidden criminals will often get away with is.

Awwwww, that sounds so sweet. You almost sound believable. NOT

You didn't seem to be this fair minded when the democrat party was ram rodding it through the House of Representatives and boxing out Republicans. Oh no. Then it was "The House sets the rules so suck it". Now all of a sudden you demand accommodation that wasn't offered to the other side.

To that I say, go fuck yourself :)
 
You two play nice now. :laugh:

One is a trial, the other is an indictment, so rules should be different. I think all facts relevant to Trumps activities should be public.

But it isn't a real trial is it? Remember? It isn't a criminal trial so criminal trial rules don't apply. That is what your side told us for the last two months while we watched Shifty Schiff pull his little stunts. Now all of a sudden you want all the rules of a criminal trial to apply when you didn't offer that accomodation previously. To that I say, go fuck yourself

If those guys testify, they know they lose.

Didn't the democrat party already present all of the facts? Are you saying that the democrat party is going to impeach President Trump without having all of the facts?

Doesn't that seem strange to you? Why would they do that?

No, the House was prevented from getting all the facts by Trumps obstruction. They got enough to impeach, but there is a whole lot missing. Who claimed they had all the facts?

They lose in the Republican Senate?

If the truth were to come out, with the relevant witnesses, the Republican Senate would be forced to remove. That is why they are working so hard to prevent the facts from becoming public.


Its a dangerous game, because if the facts come out after they have acquitted Trump they will be very unpopular.

Not that this should surprise ANYONE; if it weren't for DOUBLE STANDARDS, the STALIN-O-CRATS would have NO STANDARDS AT ALL.

SCHUMER NOT ONLY DECLARED THAT WITNESSES in THE SENATE TRIAL, WOULD JUST BE "THEATER"...has, NOT SURPRISINGLY CHANGED HIS TUNE on THAT POINT.

IN addition, SCHUMER ALSO SAID IN 1999, THAT IS WAS NATURAL FOR THE SENATE DEMS TO COORDINATE WITH THE (Then-CLINTON) WHITE HOUSE, "BECAUSE THE PRESIDENT IS THE DEFENDANT IN THE TRIAL"....


Schumer panned Clinton impeachment testimony as ‘theater,’ now seeks 4 witnesses in Trump trial


Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer has called for several current and former Trump administration officials to be subpoenaed to testify in the chamber's likely impeachment trial for President Trump.


Yet, during former President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial in 1999, Schumer, D-N.Y., roundly dismissed the importance of, and voted against, such witness testimony -- suggesting it amounted to "political theater."


“It seems to me that no good case has been made for witnesses,” Schumer said during a press conference on Jan. 27, 1999.

Days later, he argued that there was no reason to call witnesses, saying: “I wonder if the House managers aren’t a little more interested in political theater than in actually getting to the bottom of the facts.”
