Trump Impeachment Tag

It has been clear for weeks that the Democrats were seeking to 'Kavanaugh' the Senate impeachment trial -- to roll out with media help a well-timed series of supposed bombshell accusations whose main purpose was to create a media hysteria to pressure Republican Senators to extend the process. The process for the nominee, or in the impeachment framework the president, becomes the punishment and the Democrat campaign strategy.

I was traveling much of this week, so I didn't watch that much of the Democrats' presentation of their case in the Senate impeachment trial. I saw bits and pieces, and checked in from time to time on Twitter. The dominant presence was Adam Schiff. It seemed that almost every time I turned on the TV, he was talking and talking and talking.

If you've watched any of the impeachment trial on TV this week, you know that it's been an incredibly boring affair. In spite of this, the hosts at MSNBC, who are deeply emotionally and professionally invested in the outcome, are annoyed that members of the Senate aren't sitting on the edge of their seats.
