Democratic requests would take months to review.

NETFLIX VIEWING TO SOAR

WOULD USE TRIAL AS AN EXPANDED FISHING EXPEDITION

48 HOURS OF PROSECUTION AND DEFENSE WILL BE MIND NUMBING

Get ready for the most boring and nauseating week ahead. While I did not watch all the proceedings setting the rules for the impeachment trial, 13 hours of debate, what I did see was just a rehash of what we have been hearing for the last 4 months. Actually from what was presented yesterday, what more can they have to say?

I suppose it is all about using this viewing time to persuade a few voters that their cause is just and in the best interest of the country. If all the information in their requested amendments were actually allowed, it is unlikely that this trial would be over before the election in November. Is this really the hope, that they can keep this in front of the public as long as possible as a sort of negative campaign?

It would have been much better if they would have allowed each side about 6 hours to present their side. It would have been in the best interest of the country to encourage them to not be repetitive, not to be over the top in all their claims and defense. Get to the point please! Maybe then people would actually tune in and get to see and hear what they have to say. 

I would expect the Democrats will use every minute of their time, even if they have to repeat the same information numerous times. It could be that the defense will use one 8 hour day to present their defense. Any more than that will just encourage people to tune out.

Thankfully we have more options today than ever, we can tune in to NETFLIX or some other movie channel or who knows, it could be an opportunity to spend some quality time with friends or family.
