    Weren't there testimonies given by 12 or so witnesses back in November? Or, was I dreaming that? Is it something only Republicans are able to see / remember?

    Fact: there were hearings back in November, where plenty of witnesses provided their individual testimony. Wanting to ignore it or forget about it, does not mean it did not happen.

    Another fact: during the trial Trump's lawyers did a fantastic job of unraveling the fact that the house managers can not simply show up at trial and start demanding witnesses on their terms. Nor, can they show up to trial unprepared without doing discovery.

    Here's the problem with this latest thread: the low information voters and many others around the world only get their fake news from the lamestream media and their media co-conspirators around the world (most of the Western press is as biased leftward as is our own lamestream, fake news media.) So, they only know the fake news "facts" that these sources provide. Much like Goebbels said while managing Nazi PR (and remember, the Nazi's were socialists, through and through) if your lie is big enough and said enough times, it will eventually be believed by the ill-educated masses. So, the politically ill-informed will repeat fake news as if it is fact. Let's take, for example, the big lie claim that has been used against all Republican presidents in my lifetime: they are racists. Going back to Goebbels, another piece of his advice was to accuse your opponents of doing the horrible things that you are doing.

    1. The Democrats were the strong opposition to their own president (LBJ) during passage of the 1964 Civil Rights act. It was the Republicans who mustered the votes to get it passed. Beyond that, the Democrats celebrated and gave choice committee leadership assignments to their longest serving member of the Senate, Robert Byrd, until he died in office. The low information voters do not know that Byrd was an active member of the KKK in his early years and continued his racist ways in Congress when he could. Even more damning in this picture is that it is now obvious to even the dullest observer that the entire welfare state has been set up and operated to break up minority families, dumb down their schools, keep them in ghettoes and unemployed, while constantly reinforcing that they have no options and have to keep voting for the Democrats (so they are told) because otherwise they will suffer more from the "racist" Republicans. Note that since at least the 1960's, blacks have voted at 90%+ in favor of Democrat presidents. How has that worked out for them?

    2. If Trump is a racist, he is the worst and most incompetent one that I have ever seen. Minority unemployment rates are at the lowest in history. He passed a Criminal reform law that is releasing thousands of minorities from prison who were incarcerated for unfair and unjust terms (see his Super Bowl ad as just one example.) His tax cuts and regulation cuts have spurred an economy in which the greatest percentage in wage growth is in the lower tiers in which many minority workers are in. Yet, the low information and ill-informed citizens repeat constantly the fake news that Trump is a racist. It would be amusing if it were not such a strong statement as to the ignorance of these people, many of whom are unfortunately eligible to vote. It gets more frustrating when intelligent people spout the same nonsense either due to laziness or because they have their own evil agendas.

    I could provide additional compelling examples of the big lies that the Swamp has propagated against the outsider Trump that they so fear. Russian collusion, Ukraine, emoluments, etc., etc., only "make sense" to the ill-informed and ignorant. One small hope that we have in this regard is the DOJ/Durham investigation which, if done right, will show that top people in the Kenyan's administration ran the FBI, CIA, IRS and other enforcement groups like the Chicago sewer rats and political thugs that they were. Remember, the Kenyan was so bold as to make a Daley his Chief of Staff! Can you imagine how corrupt that crowd was???

    The reason that the brash and non-Politically Correct Trump has such a loyal core base is because he is the enema that the bloated and corrupt Swamp needs so desperately and he is winning. Trumps' base know that he has been facing an unprecedented, coordinated resistance since the day he defeated the Clinton Crime family at the polls in an electoral landslide. I have been surprised by his resilience, competence, and, most important, his results in the face of such withering opposition (who realize that he is a threat to their corrupt way of life that they have enjoyed for decades.)

    I did want to mention, for the record, that there were, in fact, 18 witnesses deposed in the House Democrats' secret underground bunker. No Republican witnesses were allowed (the "fair trial/witnesses" whiners should take note.) Only the witnesses whose testimony the Democrats liked were then allowed to testify in the public hearing. Even more telling, the Democrats have only released transcripts of the testimony for 17 of these witnesses. Guess who they left out? The testimony from the IC IG (Intelligence Community Inspector General.) He was the one witness who had full visibility into the whistleblower and all of the players in and around the entire Ukraine episode. Apparently his testimony went against the narrative that the Swamp so desperately needed.
