Schiff appears to have very little confidence in his own party and its ability to run an effective campaign against Trump in November because he’s already discrediting the results of the 2020 election based on the premise that Trump will win. If Schiff believed strongly that the Democratic candidate could beat Trump, why would he be preemptively questioning the legitimacy of the election on the Senate floor?

Infowars

Despite much hyperventilating by the media, the start of Trump’s Senate impeachment trial was watched by around 11 million viewers across 10 broadcast and cable television networks. That’s down on the 13.8 million viewers who tuned in last November for the first day of the Congressional impeachment inquiry.

The person I really feel sorry for is Nancy Pelosi. I assume she’s weeping uncontrollably as she watches her chances of holding the speakership dwindle every time Jerry Nadler waddles to the mic. True, you “go to war with the army you have, not the army you might want,” as Donald Rumsfeld said, but surely there are more telegenic Democrats than Nadler and Adam Schiff.

If Democrats had a strategy of getting everyone not paid to watch, or who seriously hates themselves, to turn the channel: mission accomplished. Torture is illegal everywhere but the Senate, apparently.

American Spectator

It is the Democrats who routinely put the interests of foreigners before America. They open our borders to them, promise to pay for their health care, give them driver’s licenses, and demand amnesty for them. While lecturing Trump on “letting foreigners interfere in our elections,” they clamor for the voting rights of illegal immigrants. The word “sovereignty” never passed Democratic lips until Trump became president.

With the window for each side widening to three days, it now looks like the Trump defense may actually begin on Saturday. The buzz is that they will wrap up far more quickly, believing that brevity will serve them well. As Democrats look at rolling out two more days of oratory and slides, they might consider doing some editing of their own.

Have you ever heard of any criminal trial with an opening argument, an opening statement of a week or four days. Twenty-four hours. And here’s the rub. They don’t have a case. They don’t have a crime.

Were President Trump actually guilty of the horrible things Adam Schiff has accused him on Wednesday, his particular offense would not make Barack Obama's top-10 list.  Although the competition for most impeachment-worthy offense by Obama is a stiff one, here’s the most offensive one of all…

Karl Rove: His dealings with foreign officials and Congress look as suspect as Trump’s.

According to sources that have spoken with RealClearInvestigations, Ciaramella had a discussion with Sean Misko, an Obama operative who later joined the staff of Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), about how to oust the President from his duly-elected position.

Washington Free Beacon

On this day in 2005, Donald J. Trump married the love of his life, Melania Knauss.. A grateful nation wishes them all the best as they celebrate 15 happy years together. One of the attendees at the wedding happened to be a U.S. senator who would go on to become one of the least successful female presidential candidates in American history. Watching the Trumps declare their love for one another must have been one of the most poignant moments of Hillary Clinton's life up to that point.

NY Post

Near the end of his inflammatory opening remarks Tuesday, Sen. Chuck Schumer tried his best to scale the rhetorical heights. He declared the moment “deep and solemn” and said, “The eyes of the Founding Fathers are upon us.” If they’re watching, they’re probably rolling over in their graves. Day One of the Trump impeachment trial couldn’t possibly be what they had in mind.

Fox News

Senator Marsha Washburn: No additional witnesses or documents are necessary for the impeachment trial. To admit them would be to legitimize Democrats’ caricature of fairness, and the continuation of a process that will never be more than a political farce.

The Federalist

On Monday, as senators and House impeachment managers prepared for the opening of President Trump’s impeachment trial Tuesday, Democrats and their courtiers in the mainstream press decided to ratchet up the their rhetoric to the point of delusional hysteria.
