I feel like Castor has been the better of the GOP counsels. I'm not saying he's GOOD or that he'll make a case but I'm not confident that Trump supporters at this point listen to anything that puts Trump in a bad light, all they need is someone to connect the dots enough for them and muddy the waters just enough for some independents, which I think he was obviously able to do during the Intel hearings if polls are to be believed, and he came off less scummy and slimy than this last counsel not to mention most of the GOP reps so... It is hilarious though that the best they can do is a weasly looking dude whose body language screams that the process is physically painful and the end can't come soon enough.

Didn't Castor literally question witnesses so poorly that he drew damaging information about Trump from witnesses who clearly didn't want to say it? Or am i thinking of a different lawyer? Charlz Guybon fucked around with this message at 03:11 on Dec 9, 2019 |

speaking of that rudy wapo piece: https://twitter.com/qjurecic/status/1203851823079133185 quote:In recent weeks, prosecutors subpoenaed a consulting firm founded by former FBI director Louis J. Freeh, which hired Giuliani to write an August 2018 letter to Romanian officials calling for an amnesty for people prosecuted for corruption, a policy change that would have benefited a Freeh client, according to people familiar with the move. The subpoena has not been previously reported.

It's small potatoes compared to everything else, but my low-key favourite bullshit Republican tactic is to use a misleading paraphrase of what Schiff said when complaining that Schiff misleadingly paraphrased Trump.
