WAITING FOR SWETNICK: Still don't understand why McConnell and Trump agreed to this 5-day free fire zone. If Senators demanded right to hear themselves talk, couldn't they do it after the verdict (to explain their vote)? https://t.co/12Zlt0cWFS

Wait. Their client is about to be acquitted and the *President's* lawyers want more time for their "closing arguments"**? Isn't that malpractice?

If WB a Biden guy (as he seems to be) he's also damaged Biden by giving salience to what would otherwise be a v-minor Hunter scandal. So a twofer for this genius.

If they'd leaked it to the press, Trump would have been embarrassed into dropping the scheme. Zelensky off hook, no damage toUkraine in US. But noooo, they had to file a WB complaint & become vehicle for Dem impeachment drive. Big mistake, if they really care about Ukraine. https://t.co/6KpFdgxc2Q

So VIndman and the Whistleblower did not get rid of Trump but did undermine previously bipartisan support for Ukraine in the US. Good work.

Paul Ryan should be an anti-Trump hero: Conned Trump into wasting first 2 years of his term, handed the House to Pelosi. Made sure Trump had zero legislative gains on immigration while he (Ryan) was around. https://t.co/v7Z89trHdC

Also a clear and sensible (and non-pompous) statement from @SenAlexander . I take it all back about the Meacham/Naftali/Baker/Engel book. Maybe it helped https://t.co/JXlPRKuZzX

I'd be shocked if @murphymike's candidate, Alexander, didn't use his final act to give the finger to Trump (and by implication, the shifts that rendered people like Alexander obsolete). https://t.co/1FNwDAR8S0

It's said that only a few people saw the Velvet Underground, but they all formed bands.
Only a few Republicans are Never Trump, but they all have columns.

.@McFaul didn't restrict his claim in that way — ie to reelection assistance. He said "IT IS NOT THE JOB OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES TO ASK OTHER GOVERNMENTS TO INVESTIGATE FELLOW AMERICANS! PERIOD" https://t.co/gOCkCr1k40

Amy Klobuchar is elected President in 202. There's a democratic revolution in Russia, resulting in a pro-US government that respects human rights. Pres. Klobuchar can't ask Russia's new, non-corrupt leaders to search docs & find out what was really happening with Trump & Putin? https://t.co/5NDeBhBGr0
