Just yesterday, a new poll was released showing that 75 percent of Americans think that witnesses should be called in the Senate trial — including 75 percent of independents and almost half of Republicans. Today, Republican senators are set to block witnesses from appearing and acquit this lawless president by Friday without a fair trial.
So, let me get this straight: Trump’s former national security adviser said Trump did exactly what the first article of impeachment charges him with doing. And Trump’s defenders in the Senate don’t care.
This, my friends, is what the world’s greatest deliberative body has become.
