Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer again inadvertently gave away the Democrats’ game:
SCHUMER: "God forbid we rush through this trial, and only afterward, the truth comes out. How will my colleagues on the other side of the aisle feel if they rushed it through and then even more evidence comes out?"

Schumer and the Senate have the articles of impeachment and NOW want to wait for the truth to come out? Figures. Before the articles were taken to the Senate, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi took a similar approach:
Last 3 years, in sum:
"It's not a question of proof, it says what allegations have been made"
Of course not
The only thing Democrats have proven is @realDonaldTrump is guilty of winning the 2016 election — and for that they will never exonerate him!pic.twitter.com/s0FG9tclO7

This impeachment sham?

Schumer is going to try and buy the Dems enough time to move the goalposts a couple more times.
What is so funny about all this is their unbridled arrogance.
The longer they drag this out, the more the Trump curse falls on them exponentially.— I IQ (@Intermittent_IQ) January 16, 2020
