Sole 'Republican' witness allowed by Democrats says 'impeachment case can be made'

The first Republican-requested impeachment witness is unlikely to defend President Trump but can be counted on to scold Democrats whose “blind rush” he says undercuts a serious case to impeach and convict Trump.

Jonathan Turley, a George Washington University law professor, is likely the best-known member of a four-professor Wednesday panel of the House Judiciary Committee. He's far from a partisan Trump defender but was the only witness Republicans were allowed to request.

Turley, 58, argued last week that Democrats might be able to show Trump committed an impeachable crime but that they need to slow the pace of proceedings to do so.

“The question is whether Democrats want a real or a recreational impeachment,” Turley wrote in an editorial. “A real impeachment case can be made, but to make it, they will have to reschedule, reframe, and repeat their House investigation.”

Sounds like he is setting up the sequel to the current mess: Son of Impeachment (is that sexist?), coming soon to a Congress (maybe not so) near you....another rubber suit monster in the halls of Congress...
