Trump probably going to be mad he’s going to have not pay this lawyer for a few more days instead of what was expected. Here’s the fun part, let’s say they do call Trump as a witness and he’s subpoenaed - could this be the time that Trump does book it out of the country?

They don't have to specify all of them up front. She apparently was a witness to McCarthy's phone call with Trump which seems to be a significant issue with Rs at the moment.

The prosecution prosecution promised that they weren't going to call witnesses, but now they've gone back on their word.  "

Republicans really could've been a little more canny about this rather than making it incredibly obvious how little they want witnesses, when they don't have any power to stop them.

100% this. All of the Republican threats are so empty. They're terrified of the facts coming out so they're throwing every threat they can against the wall.

Republicans are going to start pretending this never happened the second it's over with. Don't let 'em. Keep deposing anyone who's ever even exchanged small talk with an insurrectionist and push the vote for conviction/acquittal to November 7, 2022. Work on the exactly-three bills you'll be allowed to pass in this congress (assuming the filibuster isn't removed) in the trial recesses, make them big and popular, and make the entire rest of the next two years a GOP freak show. Fuuuuuck iiiiiiit.

eke out posted:a meaningless answer, you can do whatever you want No, it doesn’t. He still has to testify, he just doesn’t have to answer. “”Mr president, did you try and kill Vice President pence?” “I refuse to answer on the grounds it may incriminate me” Is not a good look.

Remember the table full of empty folders during that one press conference, and the blank "health care plan" they gave to 60 Minutes?? This is an empty threat. It's always an empty threat.

CyberPingu posted:I mean if the end game is to stop Trump running in 2024 then they have 4 years to do it right? that's not the end game because we will literally never get 17 republicans to convict him. the end game is to conclude this impeachment in a way that makes him maximally toxic to other republicans and gets us whatever the biggest political win we can right now, that looks like seizing on the "he incited a mob to kill his vice president, knowingly!" theory using witnesses we can actually get, not creating some months-long legal process all in the hopes that... you can force donald trump to take the 5th a lot
