:Yawn:   Pretty much what I thought.  Unless you are a "wonk" you really don't give a shit.


While politicians and pundits natter about President Donald Trump's impeachment trial, everyday Americans mostly seem to have a sideways view of the historic mess, using a lot of words that begin with “dis.”

Disappointment.

Disinterest.

Disgust.

Dismay

While the opinions diverge, regular Americans exude a sense that they are mere spectators to a political game, rather than players. And many of those spectators are not watching closely — if at all.

The left is playing to the voters. And voters aren't watching.

May these morons get exactly what they deserve from this clown show.

Yahoo News/YouGov poll shows two-thirds of voters want the Senate to call new impeachment witnesses

In the survey, 85 percent of Democrats and 53 percent of independents said the Senate should call new witnesses. Among Republicans surveyed, 43 percent said the Senate should not call new witnesses, while 35 percent said witnesses should be called and 22 percent indicated they were unsure on the question.

When asked about specific possible witnesses, majorities of voters said they wanted to hear from each of the four Trump allies Democrats have formally identified. Sixty percent of voters said they wanted to hear from Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani; 57 percent said they wanted to hear from Trump’s secretary of state, Mike Pompeo; 53 percent said they wanted to hear from Trump’s former national security adviser, John Bolton; and 50 percent said they wanted to hear from Trump’s acting chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney. In each case, only about a quarter of voters said they did not want to hear from these figures. Both Giuliani and Bolton have said they would testify if summoned or subpoenaed...………

McConnel and Senate Republicans can pretend like it is OK to just excuse Trump but at their own peril.  Protecting the president doesn't necessarily guarantee a win in 2020.  It could likely be that many of the Senate cover up team will be gone in 2020. 

You can post all the pictures you want of Trump filling stadiums.  Any music artist can do the same but it doesn't equate to half the population.  Just means that he has fans.  He pumped it up from the beginning.  Warning that there will be violence......etc.  I think its going to be a sad election in 2020.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.
