I can't get my head around how quickly the Dems are running toward ruin. They must think there's at least some chance at winning in the Senate, or they have a Plan C. Or just TDS meltdown. (QRV)

All I can think is that the Dems know it's nearly certain they can't win in 2020 and they think even a 1% chance of some big surprise in the impeachment/removal trial is better than that.

But I don't see them resting on a 1% chance to win, either in 2020 or in a Senate trial. I keep thinking they must have another card to play and this is just biding time until they spring it on us in September or something.

And I am reminded they still have the MSM to help whatever narrative they choose. But that MSM hasn't stopped Trump's numbers from climbing every day of this impeachment circus. Why risk that with more of the circus, particularly on the unfriendly turf of the Senate?

None of this is making sense, which makes me feel like there has to be another shoe to fall. That's logical, but perhaps TDS has made even simple logic go out the window.

i'm concerned for this reason. Senate trial is presided over by Roberts. The judge in a triall gets to determine what witness' and what evidence is allowed in the trial. This prospect is a little unnerving.

Conviction would be by Senate vote. At this point, I'm not sure Roberts could maneuver the Senate into a conviction based on the testimony we have seen so far. I'm not sure the public would accept a conviction based on what evidence has been presented so far. It's all people's feelings and opinions.

Roberts doesn't get to determine what witnesses and evidence is allowed. The majority can overrule him if he tries that shit.
