No, but that it was antifa, etc.
Hell. Maybe Hillary, they are clearly insane.
My Doc said my Blood Pressure is “marginal”, so keep a eye on it, etc.
I thus choose not to watch the hypertension causing silliness.
Wonder what the traitor Senators would have thought if Pence’s copy of the nuclear football (because the VP gets a backup just in case he needs to take over suddenly) had wound up in the hands of the mob. In the video they showed of Pence, family, and aids being ushered out the back door of the chamber and down the stairs you can actually spot the military guy carrying it.
so the defence is, he can say anything he wants, the house managers are big, lying, poopyheads.
wow.
Yes, lots of whataboutism.
Of course. They’ve served their use. Now, like used toilet paper, they are to be disposed of. All those people were lied to and duped, and only at the end will they realize it. And some not even then.
But, honestly, I don’t know how else the Trump lawyers are going to try to defend the indefensible. Sucks to be a defense attorney sometimes, I guess.
They said they only wanted 3 or 4… which will probably feel like 16… but who knows?
I happened to be watching the trial’s feed on CSPAN’s website. It’s still on in the background and now I’m listening to people calling in to comment.
Holy smokes. Not sure how long I can listen to this lunacy. But at the same time I can’t look away.
the defence is over? huh. interesting.
first amendment and democrats do it as well? wow. on to the questions.
What a pathetic defence. If this was a criminal trial it would be slam dunk.
Question from Graham: Does a politician raising bail for rioters encourage more rioting?
Huh?
Collins threw Trump’s counsel a curve ball. No, “please tell us how great President Trump is.” She and Murkoswski are on the conviction train.
This guy is not even coming close to the question either. Ignoring it completely. And walks off. What a dick.
one word answer. “yes”.
What was Collins’ question? I’m behind.
She asked Trump’s lawyers for a detailed timeline of steps he took to end the rioting.
They said since the dems rushed the impeachment, there was no time to investigate what he did to put together a timeline.
Thanks.
So the defense’s answer to every question is “we don’t know because of the rush to impeachment.” Funny that the prosecution had the exact same amount of time to put together a rock solid case.
did he just miss that the senator from alabama told trump that pence was taken away?
More like “wilfully ignored”.
Another stellar argument. “Hey, this is about incitement - not what happened after the incitement!”
So Trump’s defense just argued that Tuberville lied when he said that he told Trump that they had just moved Pence - before Trump’s tweet occurred. I, and multitudes of others, are asking snarkily, why we can’t have witnesses? Tuberville under oath would be like prime time pay-per-view quality entertainment.
So I ask this: has that shipped sailed? Is there still a possibility of a vote on witnesses? I thought we were watching the final act.
Well now, perhaps they could just ask their client.
