I know comedy is subjective and stuff
But please don't circulate that elmo video as an example of "what progressives find funny."

I don't think the dems care at this point. Republicans don't want it because they know even if they do call Biden, they're not going to get shit. Their only choice is to try and bury this because they know they're fucked when it comes to reality. Pretty much like always.
So I guess they want 3 days of opening arguments instead of 2.
So does that mean they will go to 1AM EST for the next two days?

Schiff misses the oath that all Republicans have sworn to Trump first. It's literally the only thing that matters to any of them. Trump and his voters have flat out has stated multiple times that loyalty to him is the only thing that actually matters if you want to be a Republican.
Schiff is so much better at this than most people.
But yeah, It is a shame the GOP Is so "party over country" and are essentially going to walk around with their fingers in the ears.
There is something nice about having the GOP senators sit in silence for multiple days.

Schiff is a boss. GoP can fuck right off. This is painfully, openly, theatrics. It would take a miracle to get 45 out of office, or to get the Dems peacefully in power. Right now it appears that the GoP are basically an invading force backed by big business and foreign powers with ill intent.
I don't know what they would even ask him. "Did you get hired because your dad is VP of the USA?" "Probably".
There's literally nothing that could change the republican vote on this. They're just going through the motions they are required to do.
Schiff owns so hard. Makes Trumps lawyer look like an alternate on a high school debate team.
Sadly Trump could have a high school debater as his lawyer and it wouldn't matter. GOP would smile and nod.
I think it's actually less than "the motions they are required to do" because that would mean evidence and witnesses which they seem to aiming to avoid.
Republican strategy here is to hope that America continues to not care about what any of their political representatives do. Or at least that enough don't care. It's a pretty good bet that American apathy continues to win the day.
I mean, most of Trump's supporters can't even process the arguments Schiff is presenting here because they're flat out too dumb to understand it. All Trump's lawyers have to do is say "NUH UH, YOU'RE WRONG AND A TRAITOR" and his voters would be convinced. Hell, they think Schiff speaking anything more than a three syllable word is proof enough that he's wrong and insidious.
Or do you mean because of work etc?
THIS IS EXACTLY what they need to do... SHOW VIDEOS... show that scumbag SAYING these things.
That was so good.
But Schiff needs to emphasize more that if the president is so obviously innocent these witnesses will exonerate him so why withhold them. It's so obvious he's trying to interfere with this investigation and trial because he is guilty.
Schiff is so slick turning a borning rules debate into a prosecutor's argument already.
Also, more than speaking skills, I admire his ability to prsent his case with conviction even though he knows half the audience won't be swaysed by his words no matter how well he makes the case.

Man, the rebuttal from Trump's lawyers is going to be such a pile of garbage. They're going to ignore all of this and just say "WITCH HUNT! PRESIDENT CAN DO WHAT HE WANTS."
And "It is a was perfect phonecall. Here is the transcript"
Sad thing is that it does not seem to matter in the long term :(
I assume the strategy was "talk first because you have to, but save everything for after the Democrats speak that way you get the last word"
I feel sorry for Schiff here because this is not anything that any trump dumbass will listen to. The lawyers will put on a fucking sham.
I mean, the actual reason for rebuttal is to try and... rebut an argument, but you're right that that's what his Lawyers will do.
There's not a single Republican that is on his level. It's pretty incredible. To be fair, he puts most Dems to shame too.
God, you all are so negative on this.
I believe the GOP has the capacity to remove Trump from office.
Is it likely? No, absolutely not.
But let's allow the possibility to exist.

In their defense, would you study for a test if you knew you were going to get an A for just showing up?
Its hard to be optimistic at this point when the GOP haven't showed a lick of having any sort of spine.

Thanks for the laugh. Pretty much the only funny thing I've heard all day.
They don't, dude, but we're still up for hearing Schiff absolutely destroy these fuckers in front of the nation. These sorts of things can do a lot to sway public opinion, and it's still very promising.
Someone forgot this is a cult we are dealing with
Nope, some of them are vulnerable. ~10 or so iirc.
Exactly. And it's working.
