"it's not unusual to have witnesses at a trial"
I'm sure Trumptard wants to have people take an oath and provide testimony defending his actions
Seems obvious that Mulvaney, Pompeo and Bolton should all testify

But not Biden and his son, we can’t have that, right?

All or none. I'm good either way. There are no material witnesses with anything to offer...well, just on the Biden side of things. Plenty of those that Rudy has ready to go.

Democrats don’t want a trial. It would expose all the corruption in the Ukraine when Biden was the pointman.

the dems are an embarrassment.... to themselves as well as this country... this whole impeachment has empowered Trump more than winning in 2016....and these fuckin fools cant see that! heres a prediction... you wont see a dem president for 20 fuckin years with how far left they have gone... just look at the electoral map for 2016... and that was before everyone truly found out how fucked in the head these people are... we all know now.

LOL - why would Biden or his son need to testify
Just because Trump is delusional and continues to perpetrate a lie created by Russia about Ukraine?
That's not their fault or their problem
BTW - Keep in mind that Trump didn't not care at all about an actual investigation into the Hunter Biden or Burisma.
Per sworn testimony by Sondland, all Trump cared about was the "announcement" of investigations
You know, kind of like how Trump announced he was investigating Obama's birth certificate and then didn't actually do anything or provide any info on the result of his "investigation"

Why don't Trump or Republicans just share their result of their investigation into Biden
They've known it for years so I assume they've investigated it.
Lets see the results

Were Biden and his son witnesses to or have prior knowledge of Trump's phone call to the President of the Ukraine? The Biden's aren't the ones on trail.

Like I said, you wanna have your cake and eat it too. Once it gets to the Senate, no more shifty. Sorry.
Everyone knew damn well this was gonna die in the Senate and you went ahead with the sham anyway. Now the reality is hitting and you whine and moan. Not surprising.

Cool, so he wasn't withholding aid for an investigation into a rival?
So no crime committed?
Good to know.

Please prepare yourself for another big letdown.

Interesting take on this. What gave you the idea that the Trump impeachment is based on his committing a crime? The House articles of Trump's impeachment are:
The first article charges him with abuse of power for pressuring Ukraine to assist him in his re-election campaign by damaging Democratic rivals. The second article charges him with obstruction of Congress for blocking testimony and refusing to provide documents in response to House subpoenas in the impeachment inquiry.

Problems with reading comprehension?
Trump didn't withhold Congressionally mandated funds in order to get an investigation into a bogus Russian CT
He withheld Congressionally mandated funds in order to get Zelinsky to ANNOUNCE an investigation into a bogus CT
He also specified the announcement be on CNN and he had Sondland (and I think Volker -can't recall) write the script for Zelinsky
Those are all facts supported by statements made under oath by Trump appointees

I was just baiting strawman's stupid ass and he actually fell for it - there's no real discussion to be had with him, everyone knows that.
But, since you posted that, the two articles you posted were modified from quid pro quo and bribery to be obtuse enough because the Democrats could not prove the former.
But even you just said it - doesn't feel like any "high crimes" were committed.

They're pretty much made up things.
Modified or not. These are the articles of impeachment.
Don't quid pro quo and bribery mean pretty much the same thing in this application? Although, I don't believe quid pro quo in the strictest sense is a crime. Bribery is.

I see you've decided to completely abandon your premise and now deflect to something different but equally meaningless
The specific articles were drafted to the simple and explicit abuses of power. The full report by Judiciary lists all of Trumps crimes which include
https://www.politico.com/news/2019/12/16/judiciary-committee-impeachment-report-trump-committed-multiple-federal-crimes-086096
Bottom line is that Trump will be impeached in the House and we'll have to see what happens in the Senate
We know that certain members are coordinating the trial with the defendant and certain Senators have already stated they have no intention to honor the oath they will take
There are a handful of Republican Senators who might actually want to have an honest and thorough airing of the evidence. and actually take their oath seriously.
We shall see
I just wonder if they will get the trial wrapped up before Guiliani is indicted.

Someone please remind strawman he is not to post to me directly and that I didn't read the above.

Quid pro quo and bribery were the talking points....they were what the Democrats said Trump was guilty of. Bribery was added mid-inquiry, as they were running focus groups concurrently, and the focus groups said that would resonate.
Either way, that is not what our founding fathers wanted impeachment to be for.
It is completely obvious they are about impeachment first, justify it second.
