Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA) warned on Sunday’s broadcast of ABC’s “This Week” that if Republican senators do not allow witnesses in the impeachment of President Donald Trump, they will be held accountable by voters.

Schiff said, “We will be fighting for a fair trial.”

He continued, “If the Senate decides if the Senator McConnell prevails and there are no witnesses, it will be the first impeachment trial that goes to conclusion without witnesses. The atmosphere in the Senate when I came with the other House managers, and we read the articles was one befitting something that has only happened three times in the nation’s history. I intend during the trial to be respectful of the senators, to operate from the presumption that they do take their oath seriously, but also with the knowledge that Americans are watching, that they’re going to demand a fair trial, and if the senators don’t give the country a fair trial, one that’s fair to the president, but also fair to the American people, the senators will be held accountable. So that’s the approach I intend to take.”

Mr. Neck Size Nine posturing again.  I think he's been taking hyperbole lessons from John Brennan.

Its so easy to imagine these idiots strategizing behind closed doors. I would hope Americans are sophisticated enough to see through this gradeschool level political charade but since public schools haven't taught civics since the seventies I doubt they are any longer.

It pains me to do so but I must agree with you @skeeter.  That sort of thing has been purposefully removed from public school curriculum.

Kinda like Gerold Nadler not allowing witnesses in the impeachment of President Donald Trump?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

He's drank the same kool aid that Pelosi has.  It's diluted them into believing they control the House and Senate and they can tell the President when to jump as well.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

So Pelosi really thinks she's at least the equivalent of "President?"  :pondering:  What a tool.

Meh.  Judges who think that way bother me a lot more than a mere politician, even Pelosi.  Another O'Bastard Judge just slapped another nationwide ban on a Trump initiative.

The ONLY thing on San Fran Nan that's "fast as lightning" is the speed dial to her plastic surgeon on her cell phone.

Sounds to me like Schiff plans on lecturing/berating the Senate if the trial doesn't proceed as he wishes.  My guess is that McConnell won't put up with that, and if Schiff gets out of line, they'll bounce him.

You are obviously a shill for Carl Douglas.
