Imagine if someone killed a dude for having an affair with his wife and at the murder trial his defense attorneys spend all their time trying to prove that the victim did, in fact, fuck the defendant's wife. This is absurd.

Pretty wild: The president's team just alleged that Trump's conduct couldn't possibly be considered impeachable ... but *Biden's* could have been.

I don't understand how anyone who's not already a dyed-in-wool Republican supports the GOP right now. What kind of independent or even moderate Republican can't see how brazenly shameless this is and feel embarrassed? This had better be energizing people to vote because if not we're done.
Don't forget that if Trump gets acquitted we'll be faced with defeating the most corrupt President ever without any sort of restrictions. Do what you can to get out the vote in election season. Canvas/phone bank/donate/whatever you can do to help.

Does it?
Does it even matter whether he votes for witnesses or not? He might get Romney to join him, that's not enough.
They are just a walking talking ad for Trump. His defense could have been as thin as, "so what?" And Republicans would have still voted the same.
Meh Mitch letting her do it. He knows he has the votes to shut down witnesses.
That's the crime of passion defense. It's actually a thing.
More like McConnell giving her cover so she has any hope of getting reelected
Take a step back and this shit is so ridiculous: literally voting on having... witnesses at a trial.
Murk is pondering.
That's actually good news. I'll take a pondering maybe rather than an outright no. She could be hedging on what Lamar Alexander says in his press conference. If Alexander is onboard and surely Murkoski is.

I'm hoping for a John McCain moment, but that's not going to happen.
Could you imagine if the dems get the votes and then Manchin votes no lol

Manu Raju @mkrajuNEWS: Lamar Alexander a 'no' on witnesses and documents, meaning there are 50 votes against moving ahead - and likely meaning the end of the impeachment trial as soon as tomorrow night https://twitter.com/mkraju/status/1223092603069050880 …

What a surprise, Republicans are going to do what they can to bury this.
It's time for the media to take the kids gloves off and call out Republicans now and in March when Bolton's book is released. Don't let this shit die on account of trying so hard to be impartial that you stop being impartial.

Yup, hopefully this convinces people to vote Democrat over the whole ballot in November.
Won't be suprised if Murkowski turns out to be a no tommorow as well, leaving no chance for a tie-breaker.
