But it will be in the Senate with Federal rules of evidence in play and the Chief Justice of the SC sitting at the head of the "court". If it isn't a court of law, why is the Chief Justice presiding?
You call him a lawless President out of one side of your mouth and say this isn't a court of law and shouldn't be out of the other. Democrats say "no one is above the law" but don't want the actual law considered.
But you are right in one respect, that the Democrats in the House don't give a shit about the law, they made that very clear today with their Constitutional experts who were there to explain
THE LAW! in only the terms they wanted it explained and weren't interested at all in hearing a different opinion of the law that they don't care about because it isn't a court of law after all.Head spinning yet?
A couple of things I found amusing with one of the Democrat lawyers was him saying "we have to look to the original intent in the Constitution". For the first time in history, Democrats became "originalist". Up until today they called "originalist" archaic.
Then when the subject of the original meaning of bribery came up, it was back to original intent because according to the experts, that favored more the 1792 version they liked than the federal laws that define bribery today, today where most Democrats live when it comes to the law. Pretty sure you can't use original intent when it comes to transgender's.
I think Johnathon Turley wiped the floor with the other 3 all of which donated to Hillary and one who wrote a blog 3 months after Trump was elected calling for Trumps impeachment who later said Trump could be impeached because of his tweets disparaging others. I guess he has no understanding of how the founding fathers disparaged each other. The female Professor was quoted as once saying she crossed the street rather than walk in front of Trump Tower because it so offended her. Nice to find such un-biased experts. Surprised they didn't call Peter Strzok.
This female Professor also ruffled the ire of one Republican Senator when she made a joke bringing Trump's youngest son into the conversation when she was comparing Trump to a King and said Kings can make a person a baron but Trump can only name a child baron. Funny huh?
Interesting day to people like me but didn't change the mind of a single American I'm betting and a complete waste of time since the President will not be removed.
Just an FYI, I don't think Clinton should have been impeached for having inappropriate sex and lying about it. Don't you have to lie about inappropriate sex?
