Oh so you're simply ignoring facts and evidence.  We're really on a different planet now if you're trying to say the aid being linked to favours which they admitted to, is discredited.  Holy smokes.  

Heresay and dramatic , fabulist speeches are not facts.

By anyone who understands the words "aid was never withheld" "zelensky said he was not told of any quid pro quo by Trump or anyone else".

 

But aid was withheld. It was eventually released when the investigations began...

witnesses.  evidence.  And facts are all facts.  Chief of Staff admitted it.  How many poeple connected to it need to say it before you believe it?  Are you really so in love with Trump that you're pretending facts dont exist?  Its one thing to accept those facts and pretend they dont matter, but to actually state the facts are not as they are,...you're a great example of the far right base but really...its a gimmick right??  I hope...

Hannity is the Rachel Maddow of the GOP establishment. Hes a political talk show host dressed up as an news analyst.  

Yet here you are, parroting his disinformation...

 

I am not trying to pile on here @Zontar but you aren't really helping your side of the argument here. If you have some facts you want people to hear, just list it and offer some factual support for it.

Sondland, their supposed star witness, was asked directly if Trump ordered quid pro quo.

"No"

"Then why did you say there was such an order?"

"I just assumed"

Zelensky, who actually took the phone call, No quid pro quo,, was never said by Trump, not aware of any aid being withheld at any time.

 

Seriously, dont know what more can be said.

For that matter....neither are cryptic deflections.

But that was the sum total of Democrats opening statements. Two days of heresay evidence and long speeches about how Trump is the antichrist and not removing him gurantees the universe will explode.

Well, why don't the Republicans simply call a couple of witnesses, past or current members of the Trump administration.......to total blow away this "put up job"?   Could of done this at any time.....seeing that they are not scared of anything.

Important to notice.... that they say almost nothing about or directly challenge the veracity of the earlier witnesses, from the House investigation......they simply spend their time attacking Adam Schiff, (who "insulted them") screaming about Hunter Biden, or telling outright lies, about the impeachment process, itself.

Dunno. Its a poker game. Another question that could be asked is; If case is so iron clad why did Schiff say there was no need to hear from the "whistleblower" and yet pleaded for other witnesses ? (after earlier asserting the country desperately needed to hear from him/her)

Schiff told a bold face lie during inquiry which should have disqualified him from the entire process when he said he had never met with the whistleblower yet was named head of the process  The very process people are supposed to believe has credibilitty. Theres every reason for him to be ripped.

"Was there a 'quid pro quo?' As I testified previously, with regard to the requested White House call and White House meeting, the answer is yes," -  Sondland

Nice histrionics. You know, I think others here would be willing to take you seriously if you actually presented evidence for your ridiculous comments. Resorting to whataboutism and deflection is not a very respectable or rational way to make a point. In fact, it makes you look like nothing more than a troll.

Which is to say nothing about your horrid grasp of the English language. The word you're looking for is hearsay. Hearsay.

Once again: hearsay.

But it is all heresay Not one witness has proof of a direct order. They are all parotting what the other said. Cant build a case on assumption and supposition .

histrionics ? In Schiffs last speech he said one couldnt trust the outcome of the next election and therefore voters couldnt be trusted to deliver final verdict on Trump.. Hes one the people you think are the good guys ?

Well I guess we can disregard him.  And Bolton.  And everyone else.  Cause you say so  haha

Championing a scumbag warmonger like Bolton and helping him sell books. Do progressives feel the slightest bit conflicted ? You hate Trump so much youre willing to sell yourselves out over that dickbag ?

Man, and people thought hitching the wagon to porn star lawyer Avenatti was bad.

Wait, what? how is anyone selling themselves  out over a dickbag? How are we helping him sell books because we want him to testify? I don't think that's how book sales work... 

Just because he is a warmonger and a generally awful person, doesn't mean that his testimony lacks merit... evidence is evidence.

No one is championing bolton by wanting to hear him testify under oath... That is quite the leap in logic.

You will spend the rest of your natural life looking for a post by me defending Bolton. Swamp creature , deep state extraordinaire.

Try reading what I actually say instead of lazily filtering what you think i say through your leftist bias.

If Bolton is going to make cash, later on his inside knowledge of administration things. He might as well show the money under oath.   Instead of being blocked from testifying, like every single other person of interest, with the Trump administration.   So far the only people who were able to speak publicly (House hearings) have painted a pretty ugly picture.   Surely someone, any one, could testify FOR Trump.  

Unless they simply don't exist.

Seriously beleive he wants to be questioned under oath now ?  Questions about coordinating media leaks, quite possibly illegal,  for who knows  how long and todays media leak  just to juice book sales. Think that might come up in questioning ?

Bolton stated before the House hearings that he wanted to testify.  The White House indicated that they would initiate a lengthy court battle to prevent this.  Wouldn't the Republicans be eager to discredit this stuff? 

But do they really want to know about what he (and other senior members of the administration) saw and heard?   That is the issue here.   Based on statement and (in) action....they seem pretty terrified at the prospect.
