"My Cousin Vinny" is trending, so it seems Trump has found an able replacement for Rudy.0

It doesn't matter. They could literally storm the capitol again and have the bloke with the horns present the Senate with a postcard sent by D Trump, FL, USA saying "wish you were here" and they would STILL acquit.kingstongraham said:"My Cousin Vinny" is trending, so it seems Trump has found an able replacement for Rudy.

I read that part of his defence is that he should be arrested instead.First.Aspect said:

If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit.First.Aspect said:

I watched it last night, really good stuff. addressing all the different audiences. clever stuff.0

It looks as if the impeachment trial isn't going to conclude today, as they are having a vote on questioning witnesses, given the lies ('contradictory evidence') from the defence last night (who seem to be using a script written by Trump). Could get a whole lot more interesting.
0 -
Yep, witnesses. So no conclusion tonight.

Unlikely but possible the moderate Reps want the evidence to be as comprehensive as possible so that they can justify finding against him.
Currently he’s just a fuck nugget that is simply misunderstood so going against him is too risky. With all the evidence out in the open, they can legitimately turn against him.
Wishful thinking I know but it is politics and there is always an agenda (or 40) at play.0 -
If the conversation with McCarthy is confirmed, it makes Trump look even more guilty, but makes McCarthy look appalling for standing up for him.

It would be interesting to know if they will have a way of proving (or at least getting much stronger evidence) of the timeline of communications with more than just witness statements.0 -
Oh well, forget all that. They've entered just one statement into the record, and aren't calling any witnesses. Utterly bizarre. Just when the Democratic majority could have made Trump squirm, they've capitulated. No wonder McConnell has been able to play them every time.

Seems that Trump's defence lawyer lies as frequently as Trump. Farcical.

Surprised, I'd have thought the GOP would jump at the chance to say bye to Trump for ever...
Think they may get regret this in 2024We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

And then McConnell's just been laying into Trump - excusing his 'not guilty' verdict on absurd technicalities, one of which he created, by not allowing the vote before inauguration. The US is in a bit of a mess right now. So much so, some commentators are wishing they had a system of government 'like Westminster'. I wonder where they'll get their House of Lords...

McConnell - total lizard..
The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.

Two party system.
Not conceding anything to the opposition supersedes standing for anything.

His statement where he said he could shoot someone on 5th avenue seems about right sadly.0

It has been noted that this was the most bipartisan impeachment vote ever - the seven Republicans who voted to convict outnumber the total of bipartisan votes for all previous impeachments combined. Seems a toothless system, especially where the 'jury' is blatantly following party lines, rather than the legal arguments - especially given that some of the 'jury' were prepping the defence team, in this case.0 -

It feels like passing the buck, but...

You've got to question why they even have an impeachment process in their Constitution. Utterly pointless system.0

Far too little, far too late.
He held up the democratic system for 8 years under Obama, supported Trump to the hilt for 4, milked the system financially for how many? and voted to acquit. And now says this.
Appeasing his legacy.
Total lizard.
We all know nothing will happen to Dotard.
Shambles of a country.
Then again, Blair got away with war crimes, so who are the Brits to complain.......The camera down the willy isn't anything like as bad as it sounds.

This is a good find, and probably should be in the irony thread. Ted Cruz knew what sort of a man Trump was in 2016, and what sort of lengths he'd go to.

And now he's Trump's biggest defender in the Senate.
Funny how some people are completely willing to sacrifice any semblance of a moral compass to achieve power for their own ends.

He's worked out how to get round the watertight no platforming then?0
