I've held this theory (concern) for a while now.

Any attorney will tell you (HH not withstanding) it doesn't matter how strong your case, how well you are prepared, or how well you performed at a trial, when the moment comes for the trial to "go to the jury" - in this case the Senate - all bets are off.

My theory has been that many of the Republicans who have sided against Trump are doing so because Democrat operatives have dirt on them that they've threatened to expose unless the Republicans cooperate.

Eh all politicians were dirty for so long. The dems have upset the balance and broken the rules now.

Trump needs to go after their families.

That would be our intelligence services collecting the dirt and using the threats. You don't think chief justice Robert's ruled that Obama care wasn't a tax so they could hear the case and then ruled its it's a tax ask by himself do you?

I think the democrats would love for the GOP to bail them out and dismiss the charges without a trial so they can cry about that forever

That's their best bet.

Their worst nightmare is the Swamp gets exposed and the Senate subpoeanas the Bidens, the Clinton Foundation, Pelosi, et.al for all their shady shit.

Follow the money.

I want the conspirators to testify. It would be comedy gold. Imagine Hillary explaining how she paid for the fusion GPS report. Christopher Steele would be interesting. Schiff, Nadler, the not a whistle blower and who put him up and freed him the info. Brennan, Comey, Stzork, Page, Rosestein etc.

We'd be laughing at this shit for years.

They'd be crying in prison.

I'm not concerned about this at all.

Imagine thinking political corruption is the exclusive domain of one party but not the other.

Could you rephrase this in English?

Sledog

I can.

Fuck off.

Barr can investigate all those people whenever he wants. Here's a hint, they will go the way of the supposed FISA court abuse.

As we saw with the BO admin, rats plead the 5th. America will get nothing out of running this like a trial hearing because rats have no intention of telling the truth. They put the biggest liars of all in charge of their own party.
