Senator Perdue – We've got the votes right now to acquit...
Posted by Kane on January 21, 2020 5:36 pm

If you want to wait until the end of Senate trial to know the outcome, don't listen to the interview below with Hugh Hewitt and Sen. David Perdue (R-GA). If, however, you're among the 99% of Americans who know how this partisan theater will conclude, Perdue reminds us that Senate Republicans aren't inclined to endorse House Democrats' process or product. That means no witnesses to supplement their case, Perdue says, or any witnesses that haven't already testified in the House. "I am very clear," Perdue concludes "that no witnesses should be called outside the scope of these two pitiful articles of impeachment. I think we've got the votes for it right now. I mean, there is no evidence in the House case."

So far two of Schumer's amendments have been tabled by a party line vote 53-47. The GOP has stayed unified.

Democrats are 0-4 on additional documents and witnesses.

Eh. Being that according to the Constitution a crime doesn't even have to be committed for someone to be impeached, I wouldn't hold the Senate trial to those standards.

That is patently not true and that article doesnt have any good points for why it should be.

The phrase 'High Crimes' must by its very definition include crimes. And the word Misdemeanor has also always meant a legal crime and certainly did when they wrote it.

Sorry but there is just no weaseling your way out of the fact that you need a crime to impeach and since this doesnt have one, technically trumps not actually impeached, tho it doesnt really matter as once acquitted that removes impeachment anyways just like it removes being indicted. You dont stay indicted after youve been acquited.

you're wrong about the word misdemeanor in 1789.

High crimes and misdemeanors are not limited to actual crimes but extend to an abuse or violation of the public trust in carrying out those duties.
