The 45 are for their legal representative to ask questions, Collins will get time before that

quote:

An outsider – a cocksure academic invited to testify to the House Judiciary Committee by President Clinton's lawyers – threw down a challenge to House Republicans yesterday.

"If you believe [the charges against President Clinton] . . . rise to the level of impeachable offenses . . . you will vote for impeachment and take your risk at going down in history with the zealots and the fanatics," said Sean Wilentz, a Princeton historian. "If you understand that the charges do not rise to the level of impeachment, or if you are at all unsure, and yet you vote in favor of impeachment anyway . . . history will track you down and condemn you for your cravenness."
from WaPo in 1998

I...... don't think anybody has been condemned for cravenness. Everybody's gone all-in on zealot-or-fanatic.

I imagine their conversation will be like when you roll a 2 INT character in Fallout 2 and go bullshit with Torr in Klamath. You make a poo poo load of sense to one another but nobody else within earshot understands.

He probably will. Not doing so is just going to be asking for trouble. As bad as the last GOP counsel was, he was still sparing them from themselves by allowing Nunes to go at it for 45 minutes.

It's absolutely mental that any academically educated person - a loving professor of law, no less - could possibly argue with a straight face that the sole fact that the Republicans deny that Trump has abused the power of his office in the manner described in the report means that the report's conclusions on the fact should be called into question.

The Democrats have been trying to impeach Trump since before he even took office. Also, the impeachment process is flawed because the Democrats haven't spent enough time on it.
