After all the whining and complaining, the Trump administration will not participate in Judiciary hearings

He’s too busy buying off the “jury” (Senate).

So at the 11th hour Nadler dangles the due process carrot and expects Trump to bite? Why not from the beginning? That would be all stages, would it not?

The dems are the cowards. It’s mainly because they don’t have a case. Good luck on your censure.

In what proceeding is the defendant allowed to be involved during the investigation?

Remember when Clinton was there every step of the way during Ken Starr’s investigation? Watching every interview, asking questions, subpoenaing witnesses?

Yeah. Me neither.

Nothing but excuses as to why this clown won’t participate in the impeachment proceedings. He can’t defend his conduct because he knows it’s impeachable. Pure cowardness.

True story. Conjure up a fake due process grievance, then refuse to participate when your bluff is called. Consciousness of guilt.

The strategy is to call it a sham. It’s the same strategy used for everything.

True story, conjure up an impeachment proceeding, contrary to your leadership’s wishes, presume an impeachable offense, then try to get more press on your fake impeachment by shaming the president into appearing when it in no way benefits him.

Fake congress.

Lilly livered Schiff.

Cowards of the hill.

And here we go with the usual excuses and moving the goalposts all in order to perform mental gymnastics.

Trump has continually Complained no thats too kind, he has whined like a Spoilt little kid about not being given an opportunity to participate. Now when he has the chance everything goes quiet.

Though when they do decide to take part I expect to see more mental gymnastics from his supporters saying why he has made the right choice.

How dramatic…you got suckered again by trump…

Couldn’t Shiff have pushed the courts to rule on getting witnesses? Waiting to complete his part before sending this thru another committee could have solved his witness issues. Unless they’re hurrying timelines for some reason…

They dont have to. The process via the courts is already going fast enough ( for court time )

The dems can call on those they need and Robert’s can rule right then and there if they need to testify. No scotus needed.

Now a senator can block it and then it goes to majority vote. They are limited in the number of times they can block and I forget why you just need 12 senators for something.

Regardless there is nothing going on that’s against the rules. Nothing.

Didnt have to in the first place. You are lucky this even happened. But trump’s bluff was called and caved as usual.

People eager to cover for Trump.

The legislative branch does not have the power to “push” the judiciary.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s in the Democratic party’s best interest to drag the hearings out as long as possible.

Drama belongs to the left. This whole breathless impeachment has been nothing but drama. As for Trump or White House council participating, why give them the attention they do desperately need? This thing is fizzling out on its own.

Trump wanted to participate. He had his chance and declined. Why are you trying to spin this? He either lied then or he lied now.

It’s exhausting and often embarrassing keeping up the defense of Trump, but it has to be done.
