    I don't know what network you are watching this on, but George Conway is on MSNBC today... He was on before the hearings and I think that's the first time I'd ever heard him speak... He said categorically he hates being on TV and he doesn't look super comfortable, but he's making a good case as to why conservatives should pull their collective heads out of wherever they've stuck them...

    I'm streaming the Huffpost Facebook Feed.

    But his argument is not a new one. The damage to the GOP brand will be long-lasting after Trump is gone, especially for those willing to leash themselves so closely to him just for an immediate political gain.

    Yup, get the popcorn ready, time to send in the clowns.

    Anyone else besides me not give a rat's azz if Trump did in fact use a quid pro quo given the fact presidents and all other politicians do the same all the time? Only theirs seem a lot worse as in the Hunter Biden scandal.

    Oh wait, it can't actually be classified a scandal per se since the democrats haven't been at all interested in investigating the Bidens criminality.

    At any rate, given the fact practically all main stream media, the entire democratic party, most educational systems, deep pockets shitz disturbers like George Soros, and leaders all over the globe are out to get Trump, maybe he had to resort to other measures to get to the bottom of the 2016 election corruption? You know so he has a heads up what they might try in 2020?

    Although small in comparison, it might help him somewhat level the playing field. So sorry...I personally don't see a problem with that at all.

    That's all it is. "Trump didn't want to give Ukraine ANY of the aid". That is the jist of it.

    I got in a thread a few weeks ago with a poster who said Trump never said "Joe" Biden, so there's no clear political request....

    Everybody knows about how LeBron Biden got into trouble in Ukraine a few years ago...

    It'll be interesting to see how often Schiff tries to interrupt Republicans as they try to question the witnesses...

    Majority questioning sure hasn't seemed to find a Weenie, that's certain.

    He said in his opening statement as long as they stay away from trying to name the WB, he'll give them all the rope they need to hang themselves...

    I guarantee many of the questions won't be anywhere near the topic or expertise of these witnesses.

    The next 45 minutes could be the best TV of 2019 (thus far)

    Kent mentioned Hunter and Joe Biden, so I doubt those questions will be off limits. Questions attempting to oust the whistleblower will be shut down tho.

    Yes he does. He's POTUS.

    Besides, Ukraine never knew the aid was held, and they got the aid, 3 weeks before the deadline.

    Nice try tho.

    I'm watching Nunes questioning Taylor, who knows jack. Why does this remind me of Mueller's' testimony? :D
