There is no indication that Mitch McConnell and his Republican majority in the Senate are going to let the impeachment trial turn into a wide-ranging free-for-all. Democrats desperately want to try to rescue their woefully inadequate impeachment case by locating evidence outside the record on which impeachment was based. At the same time, some Republicans wish for the day they can get Joe Biden, Adam Schiff and other Democrats on the witness stand.

I've noticed that many of the articles and opinion columns in the mainstream media about impeaching Trump include the idea that now he must bear the permanent mark of having been one of the few presidents in our history who have been impeached (see this as well as this, for example). In other words, they feel that impeachment causes Trump to wear a shameful and symbolic scarlet "I" for all time.

I was a guest this week on the Canto Talk show, with conservative pundit Silvio Canto, Jr. While the last show of the year is traditionally our Christmas show, we couldn't let the session go by without discussing the impeachment vote.

Democrats and their media cohorts are quite pleased with their success in forcing through sham impeachment articles along mostly partisan lines, with the only ones crossing party lines being Democrats who voted with Republicans not to impeach.  Granted, Democrats are still worried that their attempt to interfere with the 2020 election won't pay off and President Trump will be reelected, but mostly they are celebratory.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi declared Wednesday a solemn day and even wore black as the House voted to impeach President Donald Trump. She told the Democrats to behave and not celebrate the impeachment. Many Democratic representatives refused to toe the line. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff and others had a celebratory dinner the night before. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, who screamed "impeach the mother f*cker" after her swearing-in, posted a happy and gleeful video on her way to vote.

After the House voted to impeach President Donald Trump, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said the Democrats may wait to send the Senate the Articles of Impeachment to try to exert pressure on the Senate at to impeachment trial rules. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell slammed Pelosi and the Democrats on the floor this morning.
