Short term I’d agree Trump has put money in my retirement account, but the cost to future generations is going to be high. I’d have preferred to not sell my sole for an extra $2500 and the damage he is doing to the environment, to foreign policy, to ethics, to morals, to civility, those things that we would expect from our leader is hard to even measure.
Look at what he has done to the GOP, aside from one who has spoken out against Moscow Mitch’s comments, they are all prepared to take an oath to swear to be impartial jurors, while professing up front they will be anything but. Good Christian men like a Trump can swear to god and country to be impartial knowing they will not even bring documents or witnesses and even if they do, all will ignore the facts. It is a desperation to maintain the power in the senate, this is the old white old school guard worrying about the trend in politics and the move away from their party now stands for.

and i can make a compelling case according to what I believe, that it's the democrats who are putting facts aside for politics.
When Biden claimed
that he had no intention of complying with any senate subpoenas demanding he testify, I didn’t hear anyone
in the left claim
that he was guilty of obstruction and therefore unqualified to be potus. So add that to a
long list of things that liberals say are impeachable when Trump does them, but not worth mentioning when democrats do it.
Got an explanation for that? I’m all
ears.

He had a good reason for not being on the witness list, because he has no first hand knowledge about the charges against a Trump, this trial isn’t about whether Hunter took a hand out job due to his dad being VP. If you think a Trump was actually looking into corruption, you are drunk on the Fox/GOP coolaid.
He also suggested that if he was served with a legal subpoena he would comply. Personally I’d love to see the Bidens as witnesses, provided Bolton, Mulvaney, budget and Pompeo all testify without pulling the BS executive privilege card. That won’t happen because those testimonies potentially flip enough votes to have him removed.

one of the things i keep hearing about Trump, is that he used his office to dig up dirt on a political opponent.
Biden certainly has first hand
knowledge of his role
in Ukraine, and he could testify to things that justify Trumps wanting to know what happened there. But we can’t have people
knowing what actually happened there, not if it hurts a Democrat.
