B-Man Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Democrats are going to try to “Kavanaugh” the Impeachment Trial with new accusations The most dangerous place on earth, Bob Dole wisely observed, is between Chuck Schumer and the TV cameras. Not surprisingly, while Mitch McConnell usually gets his way, Schumer gets the headlines and TV coverage. Schumer did that again today with his demand for a “fair” trial, meaning to Schumer that Democrats get to reopen the investigation of Trump during the trial, including calling witnesses who did not testify, and doing the job the House Democrats failed to do. A do-over. That’s not usually the way trials work — the pleading of claims and discovery takes place before the trial. House Democrats chose not to do that for key witnesses they wanted — including John Bolton and Mick Mulvaney — because forcing them to testify in the House would have meant court litigation. Democrats were on a timetable driven by the 2020 election that did not allow for a court to decide the clash of branches, so they went with what they had. Schumer and Senate Democrats know that what the House had is not enough to get 20 Republican Senators to vote against Trump — they may not even get one. So the trial takes on a different purpose — to seek evidence and to prolong impeachment investigations for the remainder of the election year based on “new evidence” discovered during the trial. Byron York astutely observes that Senate Democrats are taking the same approach they took in trying to block Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination: . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepthefaith Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 They'll have to votes in the house to move it to the Senate. I doubt there will be many defectors as the pressure of party outweighs significantly the pressure of constituency from which they are very insulated IMO. However, I've been wrong on political outcomes several times. They can't turn back. That's a far worse scenario politically than the narrative that Republicans in the Senate made a sham of a serious matter and have created a constitutional crisis and are threatening our national security. That plus the fact that Trump was impeached will become their ammo in 2020. It helps them control the media narrative and will provide some cover over what Barr and Durham are doing. Pelosi will tell her baby chicks in swing districts that this enhances their re-election hopes and will keep the dems in the majority in the House. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
