Trump Derangement Syndrome - Orange man bad. Read the OP! (ᴛʜɪs ᴛʜʀᴇᴀᴅ ɪs ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴋɪᴡɪ ғᴀʀᴍs ʀᴇᴠɪᴇᴡs ɴᴏᴡ) 🗿🗿🗿🗿

Because when you are the defendant in the case and the plaintiff or plaintiff clearly did not establish their case or establish all of the elements, the proper thing to do is to ask for a directed verdict so you stop wasting the court's time. Because if the prosecution doesn't make their case, then they've made the defendant's case for them.

Also, calling witnesses for the first time at the Trial is unheard of, unless they are rebuttal witnesses, otherwise the defendant is aware of the witnesses to be called well beforehand so they can be interviewed by both parties. Have you seen My Cousin Vinny? It's a pretty good beginner's course on witnesses and evidence, except for one part. Judge Haller overruling Vinny's objection to George Wilbur's testimony would result in the verdict being overturned in appeals, since a surprise witness is extremely prejudicial to the opposing party and any judge would have sustained the objection. But it's a movie, so it needs conflict, and this paragraph is autistic.

tl;dr New fact witnesses at this point would never be allowed in a regular trial, and it would be a waste of time and money. Witnesses should have been called and subpoenaed in the House instead of speeding up the vote and sitting on the articles for a month. Schiff blew it.
I think another thing people are missing too is the full context behind all of this. The last time the DNC launched a legal campaign along these same lines was with the Mueller probe, and that could have been stopped before it ever got started if Sessions hadn't of been a massive pussy, and just told them "no" as was his right then. It's almost like some people in the Republican party have finally learned that giving concessions will just make things worse.
 
The Racist, Patriarchal, Calvinist Shitbags would be an okay band name, especially if they were a bluegrass band, but the rest of the tweet is going to look worse in hindsight than anything GOP senators have done.

I wish all these minor celebrities would just shut the fuck up. They add nothing of value to our cultural or political discourse.
 
Then why not let them speak? It would only further push his innocence
Kinda late, but it would be quite pointless to do that.

If they were confident that Tramp did a crime, then they should've gotten the witnesses that they needed at the beginning of the trial. Then their case could've been stronger with effective witnesses who are confident that Tramp did a crime. Asking for new witnesses after the defendants make their case seems to be a sign of desperate reaching to me. Not only that, but I wouldn't trust Bolton. Not because "muh loyalty to Tramp" (I'm not a Tramp supporter), but on the basis that releasing a "tell-all" book instead of asking to testify right then and there shows a sign of dishonesty because then it only shows that he has a personal vendetta against him (which is mostly inspired by Tramp firing him, I bet Bolton didn't give two shits about Tramp until he got fired). It doesn't come out of a genuine feeling of "I don't think what this man did was right, let me come in as a witness". It's more like: "Let me take this fucker down with me, if he's going to fire me from my post, then I'll get where I can get him from his post."
 
This tweet makes me sad. I remember growing up watching Mythbusters and have lots of fond memories from Adam. Depressing to see how far he's fallen.

Always heard that Jamie couldn't stand him. Now I can see why.

Now that you mention wasting the court's time I really think Trump needs to hammer home how much time and tax payer's money the Democrats spent on investigating Russiagate, Kavanaugh and now Ukraine. All three times they have come up empty-handed.
 
Well with the impeachment thing coming to an end then I'm going to enjoy the dumpster fire that will take place once the SJWs and hardcore lefties will then realize that Donald Trump will not be removed from public office. I can already see social media in general going apeshit by then.

I wonder how long this video will manage to stay on YouTube before someone starts calling a black man a white supremacist. I was supposed to put this as a reply to someone talking about how useless Obama was without a teleprompter but I've completely lost whatever thread that was in. It's got TDS stuff in it though, so, close enough.
They've been doing this forever, though. Blacks are noble PoCs whose ~lived experiences~ need to be respected and listened to. Unless they fucking dare go against the leftist narrative, then they're stupid fuckin uncle tom niggers who don't know any better and need to be brought back in line ASAP.

E: this is one of the few times you'll see a shitlib let their true feelings on race shine through, so it's a good litmus test on how someone really feels about race. Dems have always been hideously racist, they're just the more insidious kind; rather than some redneck going "haha wanna hear a nigger joke?" it's "thank you for the resume, mister, uh, Jamaal Washington, we'll let you know *smiles but avoids shaking hand* *throws resume in garbage the instant Jamaal leaves the room*

I’m curious if it actually applies here or he was just throwing words at the wall to seem smart.
Calvinism is a very hardline fundamentalist branch of Christianity that holds several positions that makes generally unpopular (such as predestination and total depravity) so I can see why he would throw it in with the other sobriquets, but I would hardly classify any member of Congress as an actual Calvinist.

Also, as far as I know, Calvinism hasn't presided over any genocides, so its one step up from Communism (or Fascism) at any rate.
 
Honestly would have liked it if they had voted for witnesses so long as the GOP had the balls to call Biden and his son along with Adam Schiff and whoever else. The Republicans were too against defending Trump and his people going at Ukrainian/Biden corruption to want to get into any fun political theater and so opted for ending the saga.

He didn't fall, he's always been that way.

People with "political" ideas like that don't invent them some day, they spend their entire adult lives getting there. He's HAD those opinions for 25 years, gauruntee it.

It's just that prior to social media, you didn't hear them

And, from 04' to 16', when the world to him looked like it was obeying his rules, he didn't have the need to spout them off at everyone all the time.

So, just know, that during that same time frame, when his smiling face was on TV, jiving and joshing with Mr Cool Beret, he ALREADY thought all those things, he just also arrogantly thought you did too, and once he realized you didn't, he attacked you not because he "fell from grace" but he rather realized who YOU were the entire time -

You're ONE OF THEM!!!!!!

I heard that Adam never saw Jamie as friends, but as "business partners". It might explain why they stopped the show given there was the 2016 election along the way, amongst other factors.
 
The way I heard it Jamie was becoming increasingly frustrated that the show was over shadowing his (their?) actual business, something that was exacerbates by the difference in personalities. Work mates, not actual friends, even at the best of times.

So it was basically just an aging mechanical engineer has-been celebrity throwing out a Euphoric Atheist insult.
