Maybe he decided to kill himself after going on The View.
He realized humanity is lost...

This is not about if Roberts can rule, this is about a talking point that the ‘trial was unfair’ because there were no witnesses. ‘What trial has no witnesses?’ That what the Libs want out of their effort.

If Roberts has any intelligence at all he would not consider stepping in that.
....
Well thus far he has avoided becoming involved. ...he has twice refused Ron Paul questions. ..

An amendment was already brought up before the proceedings started to allow CJ Roberts to do this. It was tabled on a party line vote. We’ll see what McConnell is made of if he allows another bite of this apple.

Republicans can question the fairness when the Dhief Justice is bought and paid for by the left.

Sorry, when it comes to the senate, Roberts is King McConnell’s beatch. He gets no say.

The constitution says the senate sets its own rules.

But the dems have repeatedly said the constitution doesn’t matter.

Lol, that was so pitiful.

This poor man, who is very intelligent, trying to have a conversation with people who attention span can barely handle three words or more, and they they just drown you out with their loud, pointless barking.

Imagine being married to any of those harpies.

Roberts was blackmailed by Obama about the kids they adopted and it was a shady deal the way they did it.

And there it is in a microcosm. When democracy thwarts them they run straight to the courts. “Hey, black robbed tyrant, overrule the people please.”

My Lord how this entire matter has exposed the democrats for everything they are.

Some hits:

“We can present witnesses of your guilt but you can’t present any of your innocence. As a bonus, when you try we will charge you with obstructing your guilt.”

Later: “You have offered no proof that you didn’t commit the crime. We base this on the lack of evidence that we would not let you produce!!!”

Cue smirking Chris arse hat Wallace and the rest of the media to nod approvingly and say things like “the President has a problem with the facts of his guilt.”

Bingo! And if he does, who do they appeal it to? Who decides the outcome?

Shortly after his decision on Obamacare, Roberts was photographed “on vacation” on Malta. He was alone, carrying a briefcase and getting into a car, dressed in a spot coat, no tie. Hardly the image of a family man on vacation. Malta happens to be notorious as one of the world’s money laundering centers.

I HATE him as much as i hated mccainn

But I Knew he was a narcissistic psychopath when he boxed Holeyfield for charity

There’s lot of ways to support charity without doing something so Embarrassing...unless you’re a complete fame seeking narcissist

Apparently 3 time’s the charm. I heard him read it last night with the name of the whistleblower removed. It was a pretty shaky reading, but he did it.

I urge my colleagues to seek out the truth and the facts

The truth and the facts are to Democrats what kryptonite is to Superman.

Nanzi's hand-picked House managers.

Watta dissolute bunch---diversity was not their strength---not by a long shot.

Schiff is the most loquacious---but not very convincing. He used every opportunity to pump himself up.

Nadler was infuriated.

Schiff wrote the script for this screenplay and Nadler stole the finale.

Then Nadler embarrasses himself with the answer to the final question in which he insults every senator with the reference to 10 year olds. Loved it.
