Having said that, I would also say that the GOP should adamantly refuse to allow any prosecution witnesses who have not already testified in the House impeachment proceedings. Allowing this would open the door for an endless parade of assholes whose only role is to be a tool in a political hit job carried out by the Democrats with their media partners.
Like Bolton.
No witnesses. Too risky. The rats will have a Trump hater and things can go south quickly. Just acquit.
Problem is the Dems may use the Kavenaugh approach and march out an army of “witnesses”.
I agree 100%. No additional witnesses.
The only witnesses allowed will be those with information material to the two charges, which are 1) Abuse of Power and 2) Obstruction of Congress.
Most persons whose testimony (if truthful) could hurt the Democrats have zero relevance to these charges. What, for example, would Hunter Biden know about either of those?
Just as the trial is not an open-ended investigation of Trump, it is also not a forum for investigation of the Deep State corruption and attempted coup.
