Everyone calm down. While we don’t know why witnesses weren’t called, we know that the Democrats didn’t “cave.” They’re not hapless idiots. They’re savvy fighters, and they must have had a damn good reason for this. Stop blindly attacking them and let this play out.
There are all kinds of plausible explanations for what just happened. “Democrats stupidly caved” is NOT one of them, because these Democrats are NOT stupid or cavers.
I warned you from day one not to let the media suck you into the fictional notion that the impeachment trial was crucial, and that he’s “getting away with it all” if he’s not convicted in it.
Stuff like this impeachment trial is just child’s play. It’s not even a real trial. I’d much rather see these witnesses used at Trump’s CRIMINAL trial.
The only question is whether the Washington DC Attorney General, or the DOJ, brings the insurrection case against him.
