I am not saying they could have got a conviction. But they didn't even fully present their case and that's fucking weaksauce.
And it's rich of Mitch to say that after he decided to delay the trial until after the inauguration.

Very true.
And you gotta give Mitch McConnell political kudos for tricking the Democrats into postponing the Senate trial until Trump had left office given how that he and 43 other GOP senators voted at the beginning of the Senate trial portion of the impeachment process was not constitutional because Trump was no longer in office. And he used that bullshit excuse to vote for Trump’s acquittal despite openly claiming that Trump was “morally and practically responsible” for the Jan. 6 insurrection.

Which makes me wonder what bullshit excuse he and the vast majority of his GOP senatorial cowards would have come up with if the Nancy Pelosi had called his delay as bullshit and had immediately sent the Senate the article of impeachment, which would have immediately required the Senate to take up the Senate trial.
we will be back in the trump train thread soon enough, u should have just let trump win last time morons and let the old guard democrats wash out
I actually think there is like a 5 or 10% chance trump actually goes to jail.I never ever thought that would happen but I do now think it's a real possibility
trump has kept his mouth shut for a few weeks now which makes me think he knows he's in deep shit
Anyone willing to lay 8-1 or so on trump doing time? If so I will take that bet
I agree NightmarePiscis that it wouldn’t have mattered. Too many of those GOP senators who aren’t even hardcore Trumpists are vulnerable to Trump taking revenge on them with a primary challenger. And Lindsey Graham indicated that he would drag out the calling tons of witnesses to drag the process out and delay the Senate being able to take on other urgent business, which would hurt Biden and the Dems in passing critically important legislation, such as a new COVID relief package.
Long-run the one people should be watching for is our Florida Governor Ron DesSantis. Much of how he handled this Pandemic, and not just jumping on the 'Team Retard' train, I do like about him. He is a future Contender in the GOP imo, or should be. And I am an Independent (Registered) so im not sure where ill go in 4 years, but I know 100% im not at all, behind Donald Trump. So if hes the GOP guy im probably going Blue then.... IDK..
Im a Floridian so I also have now been able to watch him at work and he is good imo....
This is a bet you don’t want to win.
Basically the establishment GOP is floating this with the hope DOJ will solve their Trump problem. They are too pussy to clean up the mess they’ve made of their party and their own backyard and would love a Biden DOJ to prosecute Trump and then they’ll cater to his people and run on it.
Fuck that. There is no GOP anymore. Let them deal with this mess.
Take this bitch for instance. Dwai and the rest of the Trump tards are basically juggalos. This is a kid told where to sit and eat by real men.
You walk out of a bar and you see some nerdy establishment Republican fighting his juggalo wife, you might feel bad and think of saving her, but the world is a better place if you let them kill each other.
Since the juggalo wing is larger, they may overrun the nerds this time. Either way, it’s win/win
