"Due Process is required" said during the process specifically outlined in the constitution to address matters like this involving the President. Also, LOL at "this was rushed" when McConnell specifically delayed it until after Biden was sworn in. God dammit DukeDuke posted:if the Founders wanted Donald Trump to be impeachable after leaving office the Founding Fathers would have explicitly said so, bing bong so simple Show me anywhere in the constitution it says anything about impeaching Donald Trump specifically? Something something founding fathers witch hunt

"Raskin Doctrine" aka what the Supreme Court said was incitement, which he then walks though and defends as "nuh-uh".

Honestly this is going better than I was expecting. The just pure incompetence of his defense team is going to lead to some stellar ads against the Rs. "Do they believe in being impartial? Well, here's some clips of the Impeachment trial!"

I'm right in thinking that the Senate is on holiday all of next week anyway so calling witnesses just cancels their break and doesn't get in the way of normal business?
