Impeachment Trial of The Don

I don't remember Democrats criticizing it either. It was so botched that Obama and Holder CYAed by refusing to release documents. We're having a heated discussion where Democrats claim what Trump did was a threat to our very existence. Yet look the other way on things very serious like what the Obama administration did or Hillary having top secret documents on a private server, then covering that up. Should Republicans have impeached her if she had beat Trump? Because what she committed were multiple felonies. Of course not, she's a Democrat, Obama is a Democrat, Democrats are held to a different standard. It's ok for Biden and other major politicians to line their pockets through their relatives as long as they're Democrats or RINO's who play along.
Dude. Trump and his people have been confessing for six months now.

Widely discussed among who the KKK? Fox News? Discussing it all you want among political pundits is one thing. For an official from the GOP Congress or the RNC to put his balls on the political anvil and state for the public record that fear of the race card not the lack of actionable hard evidence was the real reason why they didn't pursue the matter is something entirely different. And I didn't hear anybody from that side of the isle say anything along those lines.
Pretty hard to have actionable evidence when documents are kept from viewing. Yes, there was lack of political will. We've seen how the Democrats have reacted to losing to Trump. Can only imagine what would have happened if Obama had been impeached. You can throw around racism all you like, because when it comes to policy or analysis the charge of racism is all you have.

The president doesn’t even deny he tried to get Ukraine to help him in the election.

what more do you need?
Even his own OMB director sent up word that what he was doing was illegal.

May i remind you that this exchange started with you bringing up the race issue.

It's a factor in how Obama was treated. Saying so doesn't make one a racist. If anything being protective of Obama is basically saying that he's not capable of handling things himself, needs protection. In my book that's racist.

I peeked at the hearings again. Schiff is talking again. Or still talking. I don't know if he ever shut up. His antics are making it very easy for the potential swing Senators to vote against him.
Worse of all they're repeating the same arguments every couple of hours to fill their 24 hour allotment. If I'm a senator forced to listen to that I'm pissed.

TV viewers are not watching the Senate Trial.
Word is the lowly Golf Network has seen a surge in viewers.
FOX News has started split channels at times but at 5 p.m. The FIVE until Midnight is not even split screen.
They show about 3 seconds before commercials and break-in if anything interesting happens.
Nothing interesting has happened today.

Was widely discussed back then as to why the Republicans weren't going after him. And grow up, unless it's so egregious they can't ignore it the same party isn't going after one of their own. That's a pretty high bar for the Dems.
what makes you such a fanboy/lover/apologist of all things Trump? Just curious. You must spend hours a day repeating the same things over and over. And he's a spoiled, neurotic jerk...plus far from a good Christian. Is he paying you?

And yes other people do it..and did so with Obama..just curious why you spend most of your time on here for that reason

You mean as opposed to those who spend all their time on here running Trump down? Balance son, balance. By the way I spend the majority of my day following my investment account, doing research on the 'net, and a few hours of FOX News and Netflix. But I cut over to here to see the latest claims and respond accordingly. A lot of the time that's just hitting the various buttons to show approval or not.
