(Photo credit: Getty/Ole Jensen) The media scrum framed the Trump impeachment circus, round II, as an "emotional" affair. Headlines homed in on the "emotion" surrounding the trial. "'It Tears at Your Heart.' Democrats Make an Emotional Case to Senators — and America — Against Trump," blared one of many hackneyed screamers, this one from Time.com. The case made by the managers “was both meticulous and emotional," came the repetitive refrain. Democrat Jamie Raskin, a representative from Maryland and a lead impeachment manager, "choked up" as he related what to him was a heartbreaking tidbit: His (privileged) daughter expressed fear of visiting the Capitol again, presumably because of the Jan. 6 fracas. That made Jamie cry. And when Jamie Raskin cries, normies outside Rome-on-the-Potomac laugh. Uproariously.
