Schiff pushes back: Defense team knows Trump is guilty
By Olivia Beavers and Mike Lillis - 01/25/20 03:03 PM EST

The House Democrats trying their impeachment case before the Senate slammed President Trump’s defense arguments on Saturday, maintaining the president’s lawyers are attacking the prosecutors for a simple strategic reason: They know their client is guilty.

Led by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the team of impeachment managers held a press conference after the White House legal team spent roughly two hours on the Senate floor seeking to unravel the Democrats’ arguments, aired over the previous three days.

The Democrats claimed Trump’s defense team was merely “distracting” from the meat of the case by focusing on disparate topics — including Schiff, the Mueller report and the esoteric impeachment process — rather than challenging the evidence they had meticulously laid out.

 All week long Schiff was brilliant - masterful, on the attack.

First three hours of Trump's first opportunity at due process during this months long farce Schiff is brilliant - masterful, pushing back.

The media never fails to entertain. They might as well have Schiff provide video their reportage on the subject. Cut out the middleman.

Schiff is "mindreading," as I mentioned elsewhere.

He should be careful.  If he made up a phone transcript I think they should be able to put him in prison.

Schifftyroo did it while on the "floor" of the House and conducting House business. So he is immune from prosecution for that dishonesty per the Constitution.
