    An impeachment isn't a legal trial but a political procedure and the Senate has wide flexibility on how to act, but still this rubs the wrong way.https://twitter.com/Yamiche/status/1360001476588953601 …

    A meeting between Trump's lawyers and GOP senators -- including Graham and Cruz -- just ended. Trump lawyer David Schoen said the meeting was about "procedure." Cruz said senators were talking about the legal "strategy for tomorrow" and where arguments are and where to go.

        It’s pretty much how the trump admin proceeded throughout the whole time. Why would this be any different?!

        They still swore an oath to judge the case on the evidence.

        Back during Watergate, did people go around saying it is a "politcal procedure" or did Congress people take their responsibilities seriously back then?

        The Justice Department just needs to charge Trump so we can move this into a real court of law.

        This is not “impartiality” - no matter whether you term it a “legal” proceeding or not. And for a side whose ENTIRE “strategy,” such as it is, consists in demanding protections of a legal proceeding be applied here, it is damning hypocrisy.

        Your point is quite a poor one, is what I am saying.
