The Impeachment Saga

It looks as if the Senators are debating the rules they will follow to conduct the trial of President Donald Trump. There is a lot of screeching going on from people like Chuck Schumer.
Schumer is one of the most despicable people on the planet and the sound of his voice is enough to make deaf people jump off cliffs. In any event, this guy is trying to dictate the terms of the trial. Nancy Pelosi tried doing that but was unsuccessful. Of course it now appears as if she held up sending the articles to the Senate so that Joe Biden would benefit from the absence of his opponents or she was waiting for her $450K gold pens to arrive.
Schumer said he did not want a fast trial and he wants witnesses. His big claim is that failing to do these things will be part of the cover up. Cover up is the new Democrat talking point. Chuck wants things done in the open and thinks limiting access of the media and holding closed door sessions hides things from the American people and should not be tolerated because it is part of the, you guessed it, cover up.
The House of Representatives rushed the impeachment through stating that it was of the utmost importance to keep DJT from interfering in the next election. The House held secret hearings in the SCIF and the only information the public received was the leaks from Adam Schiff as he ran to cameras to selectively leak information carefully choosing or omitting items that would be particularly damaging to the president. The House chose the witnesses that were allowed to speak. All Republican requests had to go through Schiff and he had to approve them. He approved none of the ones Republicans wanted (unless they had already been interviewed by the Democrats). The entire process was carefully controlled to get the results the Democrats wanted.
So to recap, the Democrats who held secret interviews, refused witnesses to the Republicans, and rushed to get the articles passed are now demanding that everything be held in the open, there be as many witnesses as the Democrats want (and their choices NOT be infringed upon) and that they take their time and not rush things.
Folks, the House had as much time as it wanted to make its case and it decided to punt. It is not up to the Senate to fix things for the House. They handed off the articles and now the Senate has COMPLETE control of the trial.
If Democrats think they are going to remove Mr. Trump they are crazy. If they think they could remove him and survive the resulting civil unrest they are absolutely bonkers.
But then you already knew that didn’t you?
