I thought the Democratic Managers have a good strategy and did well in the Senate. Everything you say I agree with but THEN WHAT.

The Senate is almost definitely going to reject witnesses and documents. If they surprise us and allow witnesses and documents, what I wrote will be moot because the Senate will be doing its job. If the Senate does not inform the Public, the House still can. That is my point. I am proud of what the House did and I did not say anything about their strategy yesterday but a suggestion for the future.

I guess you are happy with the Managers doing a great job of showing Republican hypocrisy ONLY. I am happy with them doing that and then also informing the Public and there is a path to doing that even though it is not the best past and the court system will take time.

And I will ask what is your proposed strategy when the Senate closes debate and votes down removal. Do you think that should be the end of it?
