    If the House has not completed their investigation then why don't they start again?

    They can fight to have Bolton testify as fast as the Senate could?

    Why doesn't the House just do what they want instead of trying to force the Senate to do it?

    The Senate should tell them exactly that and allow no witnesses.

    Oh wait. They already passed out their celebratory pens.

    Yeah, why force the senate to do their job?

    Frankly the Republican led senate will not do their job. They've already decided the verdict before the trial even starts. Thank god they don't work in the criminal justice system.

    Pelosi already knows they lost . This is all about an election year spectacle that the MSM can spin for them.

    They should have summarily dismissed the impeachment articles. They are fiction and not actionable.

    If they are going to entertain this stupidity, get Hunter and Joe on the hot seat. They did what the House claims Trump did.

    That's an opinion. To me the evidence suggests that Trump did indeed do what he is accused of.

    The Bidens actions aren't really relevant. It's clear that Trumps actions weren't intended to address potentially criminal actions by the Bidens, but rather an attempt to smear a political rival for his own personal gain.

    We all have a pretty good idea as to what Trump did. Some have chosen to excuse, rationalize, downplay or deny the charges. They've also followed Trumps lead in focusing attention on the Bidens and accusing the accusers. I get it...both sides find it easy to defend their leaders.

    It is very evident that the Bidens were corrupt in Ukrane. I guess Dems want Trump to ignore it because Joe is a political opponent.

    I disagree.

    What Joe did was a violation of 18 USC 208. He should probably get a felony conviction and a steep fine. What Hunter did was likely a violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and he should get several years probation and a very steep fine.

    I think it's more about getting it officially entered into history and exposing the hypocrisy of the Republican leadership.

    It's pretty clear that Trump did something improper. There's nothing wrong with officially pointing that out, even if it will lead to nothing.

    No investigations have found any criminal activity by Hunter or Joe. Even the Ukrainian prosecutor found no wrongdoing. What specifically did he do that was illegal?

    Was nepotism a factor? Sure, but Trump supporters should be the last people complaining about nepotism.

    It is not clear that Trump did anything improper. It is clear that 15 minutes after he was sworn in that the hard left and the "media", sorry to repeat myself, started the impeachment process.
