No, it was the Dems who refused them. You aren't informed on these matters, I see.

They refused because they were threatened with unrelated witnesses being brought in.

You pick and choose statements I see - which makes sense given your posting history.

Can't believe that Donald freaking Trump is the hill the GOP wants to die on.

"You're with us or against us," is peak stupidity.

Everyone should have the moral obligation to separate the goats from the sheep. Trump's bad business. You should only want the likes of Trump if you actively want fascism. That's not, I hope, what the GOP is all about.

There's no need to be loyal to someone who has done so much damage. He literally attempted a coup because he lost an election. No US president has done that before.

The problem is that Trump is still popular with the base.

This whole thing is just pure politics. No real considerations other than what gets one elected.

He orchestrated an attack on the capitol. Many of the insurgents were brandishing confederate flags. At least one individual was photographed wearing a shirt which read "six million isn't enough" in reference to the Holocaust. It doesn't matter how popular Trump is, he's popular with the wrong people. At this point, it's damn near identical to Nazi collaboration to still be trying to herald Trump as the champion of Republicans.

Whether or not he actively believes in White supremacist ideology, he is absolutely coddling those who do. And even if he wasn't, he still orchestrated an attack on the capitol with the intent of stealing an election he knew he'd lost. Nobody should be going to bat for this guy.

I'm not given to hyperbolic allusions which turn everyone I dislike into Hitler or Stalin. I hate that side of politics. But the truth of the matter is that Trump is empowering those who believe in Nazi ideology and that he's shown he's willing to give democracy the middle finger so long as he wins.

Either side of the political equation should be above that.

You first!

Since you made the initial claim (look back at your posts), everything hinges on you being able to prove your thesis. I know that's not how Trump operates, but I'm asking you to be better than him. :)

Dems refused to call witnesses. Thats a fact and inarguable. Why they refused is a matter of interpretation i suppose.

Given the transcript of conversations, it's not as much interpretation as actual statements response to Republican threats.
Interestingly, in the topic of Cruz leaving Texas you seem very keen to look at the *why*... but not here, even though you brought it up (how was it a trial if no witnesses were called).

If they folded in the face of "threats", they were never really interested in justice anyway. An open and shut case like the media made it seem, should've been a slam dunk. But it turns out, this was all theater.

Johnson said it best, "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

So any witnesses that are intimidated aren't "true justice seekers"? Quite a biased (and convenient) way for you to handwave what happened.
Also what was the "lie" I was fed?
