Not to mention you have no case and there are many legal precedents against your Looney Tunes arguments. LOL

The question I want to hear is this "If we vote to have witnesses, and the defense calls the whistleblower, Schiff, and members of his staff, will they go to the courts to get out of testifying?" If so, they will be, by their own logic, obstructing the impeachment.

Nixon’s claims of executive privilege about the Watergate tapes were unanimously rejected by the Supreme Court, and he resigned shortly thereafter. That’s the best precedent we have for something like this

So you can Monday morning quarterback the Dems’ impeachment strategies all day long, but the fact remains this Administration should be able to abide by its constitutional duties without a literal Supreme Court Order

And if the impeachment trial ends without critical docs being produced and witnesses being called, if and when the suppressed information inevitably comes out later the egg is going to be all over the GOP

"Suppressed information" LMAO. Guess the Democrats didn't have enough time or didn't stack the deck enough in the House hearings, huh?
More like incompetent ego-driven political hacks who got in way over their heads and Schiffed the bed. Cannot wait for the election, the backlash against these House Democrats is going to be enormous.

There was plenty of information uncovered in the House hearings to justify further investigation. https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20191216/CRPT-116hrpt346.pdf

(Aside — If this House record was so biased against Trump, why is the GOP now so ready to rely on it?)

And yet we *still* have to hear from every firsthand Trump Administration witness whose testimony has been blocked thus far, including Bolton (though at least he may ultimately be called), not to mention Trump himself (it's insane he's not going under oath) and god knows what else is contained in the hidden documents.

In preparing to acquit Trump after basically a sham trial, you Republicans are lighting a fuse under yourselves and creating a lot of unresolved risk. As always, it’s not the crime, it’s the cover-up.

What the defense has done is shown how a lack of due process and a rushed impeachment spoiled the case. The Senators all know it is a sham trial based on electioneering and base-saving; not one vote has been changed over the past week.

Lol why would any votes change? There’s been no new evidence. So no reason to.

But yeah, I get it, it’s all the Dems’ fault and the GOP Senate bears absolutely no responsibility for the trial rules they themselves picked

And Trump isn’t a coward at all for watching his own trial from home and tweeting about it rather than sitting his ass down on the stand, which he shouldn’t need a Supreme Court order to compel him to do

If you are ever put on trial, and your attorney asks you to testify, whether you are innocent or not, fire the bum. Just as in talking to the police without an attorney present, nothing good can come from it.

You are hilarious.
Sorry to burst your hysterical fantasy, but the Senate will not be calling more witnesses and they will vote in a bi-partisan fashion to acquit this weekend. This will happen.
And as more elected Democrats examine the results, the fallout and the blowback from this sham impeachment, as a matter of survival they'll also reassess their party affiliation.
You will see more Democrat party defections this year and a Republican tsunami in November.

But please keep swallowing the lies, failures and nonsense from delusional talking heads on CNN, MSNBC and the MSM. You apparently developed a taste for listening to liars and always losing.
