Those hearings did not increase the percentage of americans who think the punishment should be a senate conviction and removal from office. let's break down the numbers. number one, just the threshold. should the president be impeached and removed from office? 50% of americans, so half, say yes. 43% say no. the issue is this. watch how this is made out over time. if you go back to march, 36% the democrats have made progress in prosecuting their case. in october 50% says impeach and remove. after the hearings, 50%, the same number say impeach and remove. so the public hearings didn't increase t...

Were voting on or for. was it a resolution, inquiry, what was it? and that's going to take some time to do that. >> absolutely. i think really -- in some ways it's a legal issue but really political and they'll have to explain at the minimum they voted to continue the investigation of the president and i think everybody knows they are going to vote and it will be impeachment and go to senate and they probably won't convict. >> no rights for the minority unless the chair so designates. in fact, in this resolution it allows the chair to veto even the ability for the president to have legal couns...
