    Democrats caught in their impeachment lie......

    Democrats argued late last year that the impeachment of President Trump was too urgent to wait for facts and key testimony.


    The nation’s survival was supposedly at stake. That’s why they didn’t have time to go through formal procedures and litigation to compel testimony from certain witnesses, such as former national security adviser John Bolton and White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney.


    Why do Democrats want the Senate to promise, in advance, that it will call Bolton and Mulvaney to testify? Because they don’t want senators to laugh their case out of the chamber, summarily voting to dismiss it without further consideration. Remember, it was House Democrats’ choice not to compel the testimony in the first place.


    This leaves House Democrats in the quandary that often befalls liars: They have trapped themselves. For if the case for impeachment is already sufficient "to prove the case beyond any doubt at all,” as Rep. Jerry Nadler said, then additional witnesses are superfluous. If, on the other hand, these witnesses are essential to make the case, then Democrats abused the House impeachment process for partisan gain, admitting in advance that they impeached Trump without sufficient evidence to remove him from office. Either way, they are lying. Their desire for witnesses is about creating what they hoped would be a politically beneficial spectacle, which is essentially the same motive behind the impeachment itself.


    Under the rules McConnell has proposed, senators will hear the case from the impeachment managers and the White House. If the senators want to see or hear more, say, from Bolton, Mulvaney, or Hunter Biden, they can vote to do so once the other cases have been made. In other words, while McConnell is not guaranteeing witness testimony in advance, his rules do not preclude the calling of witnesses should a majority of senators desire the testimony. This procedure, used in the Clinton impeachment, allowed senators to get answers without allowing House managers to turn the whole thing into an even more ridiculous partisan circus than it already was.


    History has a way of repeating itself......snip~

    Ahahahaha…..Democrats caught in their own lie. Once again McConnell tricks Pelosi. While showing the country the Demos not only lied to the Country. But to themselves.

    That kind of limits the Democrats from making a mockery of the Senate Impeachment process, huh?
