I mean...Now they're trying to argue that getting a meeting in the white house is no big deal.
Guy sounds like he wants to cry and he's barely started.
(Maybe I should stop posting so much)
Probably. They also realize the current President has obstructed justice, sought foreign political assistance multiple times (including requesting the commission of crimes), has obstructed congress at every turn and recently assasinated a major government official in a hostile nation.
Hear me out, people might be thinking of implications beyond political ones.
Didn't the House ultimately vote for the inquiry? So isn't this argument moot?
Everything is about Donald Trump in the Trump administration. Everything. Anyone who supports anything besides Donald Trump is an enemy of Donald Trump, and the Trump voting base, which is a rabid and motivated majority of the GOP base in 2020, will not tolerate enemies of Trump.I'm talking about the idea of "overturning an election" as if somehow Hilary becomes President if he's removed.
this.
When you say they wrapped up, does that mean they only used like 2 hours of their 24 hours defense??? Or is there more to come?
Welp, this is one frail defense.More on Monday, but they've said they won't use most of their 21 hours.
What they mean is showing clips of Adam Schiff
Them only using 2 of the 3 hours they had on a Saturday morning isn't something to read into too much, I don't think. Remember that most of this defense is going to exist for Trump's personal viewing, he's already admitted he doesn't like the Saturday presentation for ratings' sake, and we know his attention span can't handle much. This is probably about as much as they wanted to handle to get the talking points out, and will save the longer-form defense for next week when Trump can tune in and out while doing other things.
The one thing that surprises me about today is that I don't think they actually delved into the Biden side of things at all? For all of Lindsey Graham and Sekulow's bluster about it toward the end of yesterday I expected that to be more of a focal point.
It's infuriating how everything is fucking recorded for us to see over and over again, but they'll lie about it and their base won't question it at all.These people are ridiculous. The gop getting on camera and saying today they got the evidence and the facts and the Democrats showed nothing in the last few days.
