Dems say lots of words that do nothing.

Republicans say lots of words that do nothing.

Trump is found innocent/not guilty, or whatever the correct term is, because he is a Republican and the Republicans have more votes than the Democrats.

Want to know how boring and insignificant this impeachment is to the American people.

Across six networks there were ~11,000,000 viewers that covered the impeachment trial live

NCIS had an average of ~11,100,000 viewers per episode in 2019

60 Minutes had an average of ~11,000,000 viewers per episode in 2019

Let that sink in a little bit. The democrats are shooting themselves in their own foot here when it comes to the people of America.

Why would anyone waste their time watching it? No matter what happened everyone will stick to their party lines and nothing is going to happen here. We have shitty voter turnout for presidential elections, why would you expect a bunch of people to watch this boring ass stuff when you know our politics is broken and nothing will happen.

To those 11 million people... There are better things to be doing fellas

Kinda how Alexander Hamilton said impeachment should not be used, impeachment based on party lines.

I watch it because i enjoy politics, but these past couple of days has been brutal listening to Nadler and Schiff. They show video from their congressional hearings where Sundland said it was quid pro quo when questioned by the democrats. As soon as the republicans asked him he said he perceived it as quid pro quo. Schiff just shows the part where he said it was, and Schiff goes on as it is 100% fact that it was quid pro quo. I don't know how he forgot how Sundland said it was his perception that it was quid pro quo and that he was specifically told that he wanted nothing in return.

Every time I hear Nadler, Schiff, MSNBC, CNN and news paper articles say "fact" about what has gone on so far it irritates me. It reminds me when Trump was first elected and CNN kept running an article with an orange on the screen. And a voice over said, "no matter how many times you call it an apple it will never be an apple." Then it goes on to say facts are facts and they cannot change. I just find it funny now that CNN, MSNBC, Nadler and Schiff keep yelling facts but they are not facts. They are assumptions and half truths, take the quid pro quo example above.

Tiger teed off at Torrey Pines an hour ago. There are better and more important things to watch than a bunch of lame corporate puppets spewing nonsense.
