"Judiciary
Committee hearings: Turley argued like a mob lawyer. I agreed with him
on one point, but not for the reasons he gave. The Democrats are not
setting the impeachment bar too low, but they are moving it too quickly.
Not for Turley's fake legal and philosophical reasons, which were
sophistries, but political ones.
"The correct legal and philosophical arguments were given by the three experts called by the Democrats. But the Democratic leadership is erring on the side of political correctness rather than political pragmatism by trying to get the impeachment over as quickly as possible in order to minimize influence on the 2020 election. In light of the Repuglican Senate's utter lack of good faith, the House should run the impeachment out all the way up to the election. That would be entirely legal and morally justified, even if somewhat 'unsportsmanlike'. You can't play by Marquess of Queensberry rules when you play with the Repuglican Mob. We need to run Mitch McConnell's Merrick Garland play against them by preventing any Senate vote."
