Just wild.
Some may not want to watch, because they are afraid, they might hear the truth, or something they simply can't deny. They don't want to hear anything that might change their position or give them a pause.

You tell me what federal crime the evidence presented shows Trump is guilty of. Rioters broke down a glass door in the capitol building, and tussled with a few capitol police officers, took cellphone selfies and went home, by 6:00PM. And Trump's guilty of.... what?
The hearings are not a trial. There is no prosecutor.

The testimony we have heard points strongly to Sedition, obstruction of justice, and election tampering.

Who would you like to hear from under oath to counter the narrative of all of the Republican witnesses who have testified? You keep saying they don’t allow a defense, but you never say who can offer it.

Jordan? Eastman? Clark? Meadows? Flynn? Scavino? Navarro? Stone? Alex Jones? Biggs? Hawley?

Someone else…?

My post was in answer to one who made the claim that two agents were going to testify. Take your complaints up with him.

None of them will come.

DOJ has opened a Grand Jury, maybe they will all be brought in front of it.
One of the three DOJ Grand Juries has been hearing testimony from Pence’s Chief of Staff Marc Short last week. I would be willing to wager some of those names came up in what he had to say under oath.

I would have thought the American President would always defend our Constitution, Our Capital and our elections...instead he seemed happy to watch all the destruction and violence. It's unimaginable.

Anybody who would go to that extreme to stay in power is a red flag in itself. I mean this guy really wanted to hold on to power so bad, that he was willing to go all out. I guess having all that power can be intoxicating. And I've never in my life seen so many people sucked in by one man, and his stranglehold over an entire party, that people are afraid to step out against him or just speak the truth. If that isn't cult like, then I don't know what is. And on top of all that, he seems to bring out the worst in many of his supporters, I've never seen anything like it.

  • Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson +6600
  • Josh Hawley +6600
  • Kristi Noem +6600
  • Mitt Romney +6600
  • Ted Cruz +6600
Everybody went down except Trump. What's going on with the hearing, it was supposed to bring down Trump's odds not everybody else. What's going on, what's the plan now? Do they have one? I have a suggestion, if they ignore Trump for 18 months and not bring him up or even mention his name, I think that will work better bringing his numbers down. What do you think?
You seem to be either confused about odds or you're using incorrect terminology. The hearings are negative events for Trump, and if anything, they would cause his odds to go up.

You people are terrified. And you know it.

I love how you label all Trump supporters into MAGA rednecks, real objective.

Most of us just liked cheap taxes and gas and cheap everything and a President who annihilated the press and everyone else who deserved it. Also he constantly talked about saving us money. No president in my lifetime I ever remember emphasizing that so much, saving our country money or trying to. Country = taxpayers.

I just bought a boat last year, it took a year to be built to spec and I finally have it. I asked my salesman how much more the exact same boat but a 2023 model would be, he said minimum 10-12 grand.

That is all the fault of the dems and their crap.

Guarantee on January 20 2025 Trump will get on TV and say "I'm here to do whatever I need to do to get prices down for you guys" because he actually cares about Americans. And you guys know that too but won't ever admit it.

Hell it'll be before that, he will campaign on getting prices down on everything.

The politicization of the Secret Service. I've always know that, politically, they lean hard right (I've known several people that work there over the years), but the whole texting thing is just disappointing.

The hands-off approach that local DC police took towards "peaceful protestors" walking down the street or being up in the trees with guns and other weapons. I don't think other groups would have been treated so hands-off when it comes to openly having weapons of any sort on you.
When it comes Trump, doing the right thing doesn't mean a thing. It's all about defending him no matter what, and at all costs. And the supper die hards would never be caught giving into the left about anything, even if they know it's not right.

Okay. Maybe you can answer.

Who is willing to testify under oath on Trump’s behalf to counter the testimony we have heard from all the republicans whose testimony has been seen by the public so far? Quite frankly, they have not flattered him a lot.

They are supposed to be negative for Trump yes, but the odds makers are not buying the liberals load of baloney all this nonsense is, neither are those of us independents that can think for ourselves.
