Wayne, I dare you to find a post where I put any politician above country.… I called out Schiff for a horrible display and his personal attack on a man who has served this country throughout his career. (Schiff did try to back away from that personal attack in closing.) But the hearing was a waste of taxpayer dollars. If they are trying to keep powder dry for closing arguments, they could at least have a credible legislator doing the opening for them. As for Trump,... the man and his MO disgust me. His agenda however has a lot of points with merit. That is putting country first! I would welcome EITHER party to put forward a worthy candidate to consider, for the good of the country.

I watched a lot of it and didn't see Schiff making personal attacks. He pushed him at times but what did he say that was personal? |

Seemed pretty decent performance wise. His only big gaff was referring to a line in his opening statement as parody. |

You mean it’s similar (but in my mind far less disrespectful) than the way Trump treated McCain? But you defend a Trump as your party demands it.

What Ross found objectionable and he commented on above, pales in comparison to how Trump treated McCain, who also served his country throughout his career. To that complaint Trump is far worse in so many ways, cross him or speak ill of him during or after service and he could care less about military service or political service.

Threatening and ruining people's lives, or worse, is just another chapter in the playbook for those doing business in NY as well as much of the one percenter class. No way you can get there without stepping on and squashing some people along the way....
Furthermore, Trump was quoted saying "what we used to do with spies and traitors", when he wasn't even remotely a part of the "we"...
