When the economy is good, the current POTUS gets re-elected.

I have been listening to a lot of the defense team arguments and they are definitely cherry picking too. Sekulow isn't painting the whole picture either. The prosecution might be doing it more but they are both doing it.

You obviously have fallen for the Liberal narrative that Trump is required to prove himself innocent.

He's not required to even present a defense.

All his team needed to do was tear down the lies presented by the articles and the House Managers.  That means proving the accusations are false. 

Based on logic, if the accusations are false, there is no need to prove Trump is innocent of ANYTHING, because the accusations are baseless.

That's the "whole picture".  The impeachment inquiry and subsequent Judiciary Committee's hearing with not one fact witness are nothing but a partisan attempt to undo the 2016 election and prevent Trump from winning reelection against a sorry Dem nominee -- no matter which Dem candidate that might be, since they are all sorry.

Watching the closing arguments of the trial. 

The president's team went first.  They systematically tore down the House's articles, their "evidence" and witness testimonies, the sham process, and the obvious reluctance/avoidance of the courts.

The house managers are giving conclusions, invoking the words of founders and others, and quoting Dumbledore from Harry Potter!   :crazy:

Schiff is now saying the evidence exists, but Trump is covering it all up.

Horse before the cart (impeachment without evidence).

Schiff needs to be expelled and then jailed for this attempted coup based on a false narrative.

Schiff is probably the best example of a modern Democrat and their ethics.
He'd be great here in Hawaii,  probably could get elected Governor.

McConnell and Schumer gave their post-vote press statements.

McConnell wants to move forward and stop the never-ending investigations.

Schumer blamed the Senate for denying them the chance to get documents and witnesses so they can get at the truth.  He also delegitimized the acquittal as partisan, but ignored the partisan vote in the House.

McConnell made the best point.  The House managers said 60 times the case was "proven" or "proved".  The evidence is "overwhelming".  So, if that were true, there was no need for more witnesses or documents in the Senate trial.  Their own appraisal of their case was the best argument against calling even more witnesses with nothing different to offer.

Schumer called the trial unfair.  Sounds like the 2016 election all over again!!   :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

The look on Pelosi’s face yesterday when many in the audience started shouting “Four more years! Four more years!”  Priceless.

The Democrats are already talking about not giving up on impeachment.

The case they already sent to the Senate ended.  Another impeachment would require a different set of facts.  To retry this case would fly in the face of our justice system -- taking a second bite at the apple after the Senate already ruled for acquittal.

Looking at the 52-48 vote for acquittal and thinking, "Trump barely survived that vote.  If we try again, maybe we can get 3 Senators to switch?" is 100% inaccurate. 

The Senate must vote to convict by a 2/3 super majority.  That means they needed 67 votes out of 100.  Math tells me 67 - 48 = 19 ... the vote margin the Democrats failed by.  No matter how many times they go after Trump, without actual evidence of a crime ... a REAL crime ... they will never get 19 more Senators to vote for conviction and removal.

I have $10 that says they'll try again before the election.  This political withc hunt failed to dirty up Trump enough to push any of their Dim candidates across the general election finish line.

We need a class action lawsuit against all these witch hunters to compensate for all the tax dollars they are wasting.   The should have all their assets seized and reimbursed to the general fund.

I didn't like him when he ran against Obama. I know this sounds weird but when he was running against Obama I had a strange feeling he was not doing his best to try and win. It was like he was holding back. It wasn't that Obama outshone Romney so much, which he did. It was that Romney was so milquetoast (Does this make me a waycist?). So my conspiracy theory is that he was paid to throw the election.  :tinfoil:

I always felt like he was deliberately throwing the election.  Never wanted him, but with the choice of getting rid of Obunga..............

Just another sacrificial pawn in their game. . .

I like how each MSM outlet has the subject's photo or frozen video on the clip.  Fox will have a deranged looking Bolton, Sanders, etc.  CNN, well, I don't really read there, but different. . .  :rofl:
