that was the GOP's "constitutional scholar"Why would the witness called by the Minority to testify at the Impeachment Hearings feel it appropriate to pose an imaginary Nike Corporation TV advertisement, followed by a lengthy quote from a movie made in the mid-60's, in his opening statement?
Plus a reference to his Goldendoodle...
At first glance, it looks like intentional 'dumbing down' of the process. Fits well with the two calls for Motion Head Counts by the Minority, the results of which were undoubtedly known in advance, and serve to waste the Committee's time. Note to anyone claiming the Ipeachment process is a waste of time: It is the Minority engaged thus far in wasting time and theatrics.
the whole things was tripe
no one cars who is mad and why....or whether the proceedings will quell that; you'd
think that a scholar would grasp that the objective of impeachment is not to address
people's feelings.
further, the record is incomplete precisely because the person being impeached
has blocked testimony by folks who have direct knowledge such as Mulvaney,
McGahn, and Bolton.
his monologue was enragingly bad...
