I've only glimpsed at US politics, but it seems like the pig circus is in full swing now.
-Mitch McConnel claimed it was only fair that Trump got a process on the same rules as Clinton, which certainly sounds fair if you neglect the fact that these are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CASES
-...and he then proceeded to break similarities with that case with other rules
-democrats and republicans are more divided than ever. Or more united in their group, if that's your fancy: every amendment brought up got shot down because republicans don't want it (and they hold a - very tight - majority). Including witnesses.
Okay, the source is from a local newspaper, but could it be that up to 69% of Americans actually want witnesses to be heard in this process? It certainly makes sense, because...well...it's a public trial, right? It's not like you or me can decide not to have witnesses involved whenever we get busted on committing crimes. But Mitch isn't even pretending to be unbiased in this matter, so it's not like this is a coincidence in any way...
