Not exactly. How have they unfairly impeached Trump?

First off, Trump isn't officially Impeached. But, how about pre-meditated impeachment, secret meetings in basement, not allowing his counsel to be present, not allowing questioning by Republican members, starting off the proceedings with a parody ( Out and out LIE by Schiff) of the transcript, Not allowing him to present his own fact witness testimony etc, etc, etc.....

"But, how about pre-meditated impeachment"

Well, if Trump knew how our government works, the Democrats wouldn't have had to anticipate impeaching him.

"secret meetings in basement"

That House Republicans had access to. Just not all of them.

"not allowing his counsel to be present"

Counsel to be present when? They were allowed to be present if Trump wanted to take the stand. He opted out.

"not allowing questioning by Republican members"

They were allowed to question people. Did we not see the same impeachment proceedings?

"starting off the proceedings with a parody ( Out and out LIE by Schiff) of the transcript,"

Not an out and out lie. A perspective on what the Transcript could mean. I'll give you that Schiff opening remarks were not the best but there was nothing unfair about them, save for the attack on Trump's character. You might not be familiar with how American courts are but rarely are the accused treated fairly. Constitutionally, there was due process. Trump just opted to not participate and order key witnesses to not participate either. Thus allowing the House to add obstruction of justice to articles of impeachment.

"Not allowing him to present his own fact witness testimony etc, etc, etc....."

He could present his own witnesses. He just mandated that the "Whistleblower" needed to be present and the House turned that offer down. There was no need to confirm the whistleblower's identity due to Trump's release of the transcript.
