Outcome is trump does not get impeached. >> and i think -- >> im sorry. go ahead. but right? >> if -- well, yes. he gets impeached. he just doesnt get removed from office. yeah. >> and no ones paying any attention to the democrats prescription drug bill. republicans also have a prescription drug bill that passed on a bipartisan basis. no one cares. impeachment is sucking up all the oxygen and nancy pelosi is exactly where she said over and over and over again she didnt want to be. >> whats your ...

Republicans proposed werent all that coherent, so itd be hard to say exactly what those were about. but regardless whether those were coherent arguments or not, all of the republican amendments have been designed to basically stop the impeachment process or at least to slow it down. republicans have due process rights here, but theyre not going to win any of these votes as long as what theyre votes are about is trying to undo the process of bringing these impeachment articles against the preside...

This president said, no, im going to do it. even though the same interagency consensus weve heard so much about in this impeachment inquiry, even though this interagency consensus was probably against him in that move, this president said im going to do it. and its been a good thing. and thats what the american people appreciate, and thats why weve got this rigged and rushed process because its really about next november. theyre all afraid. some of their colleagues have said it straight up, they...

Defining for the american people, really, the introduction of the biden family in the political context. so far its just been all trumps side of it and the republicans side of it. when you allow others to define for you what the relationship was, what activities were happening, even if theyre flat out lying about it, right now theyre only hearing one side of what happened and one interpretation of what happened. at some point very soon once we get through the actual impeachment process, biden as...

First has the president committed impeachable offenses? second, did those offenses rise to the gravity thats worth putting the country through the drama of impeachment? and number three because you dont want to tear the country apart, you dont want half of the country to say to the other half for the next 30 years we won the election, you stole it from us. you have to be able to think at the beginning of the impeachment process that the evidence is so cleat of offenses so grave that once youve l...

Other words, if you were a martian just arriving and the view of congress what you saw the last week, you would have gotten a representative view. and one thing that was interesting to me was that another thing thats historically unique about this impeachment process, this is the first time that we have seen a president with a judiciary committee voting for impeachment running for re-election. and that caused something we didnt see in earlier impeachment processes which was yesterday an awful lo...

Swore to protect and uphold. should this process end with a trial and a senate vote to remove him from office, a prospect that seems highly unlikely, its not hard to imagine that he would insist that the process was invalid, and he would refuse to go. such an act of tyranny is what the constitution was created to protect against. thats why this impeachment process is urgent and should move forward without delay. republicans and democrats going at each others arguments, going at it at times perso...

Fighting and arguing and then thered be a voice vote in which the republican amendment would inevitably fail to pass, and then a republican would demand the voice vote wasnt good enough and then the republican member of congress wanted a roll call vote. and then thered be a roll call vote and the amendment once again would clearly be shown to have failed and again more speeches. rinse, repeat, dont forget the conditioner. so it has been sort of a recursive process all day long. if you didnt get ...

Doing the wrong thing. and so, to anyone who wonders what does impeachment do to this president even if the outcome in the senate is uncertain, those individuals acting got ukraine the taxpayer dollars we voted on an they desperately needed and this impeachment process tells the president you are no longer emboldened to put your personal gain above the office that you serve. >> what do you think when you hear mitch mcconnell describe the senate trial as you just did as uncertain but certain, rig...

Would we think that there would be an effort by the president to acknowledge and work in good faith to resolve said dispute. better in their minds to wait for the courts to resolve it, which is their right. president obama, during the fast and furious investigation, invoked executive privilege and barred essential testimony and documents. during its litigation, the obama administration argued the courts had no authority over its denial of such witnesses and evidence to congress. the federal cour...
