This video is a pretty compelling argument that politicians overuse the verb "fight" and it has become a consultant-driven cliche. That rhetorical point, of course, doesn't have anything to do with the fact that the Trump January 6 speech was incitement. — PolitiTweet.org

So Trump, according to Schoen, only wanted to support a primary challenge to VP Mike Pence. — PolitiTweet.org

Let me see if I understand what Schoen is saying: We need more facts about what happened on January 6. I agree. Let's have witnesses starting with Mike Pence and moving into everyone who was in the Oval Office on January 6. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
From a rhetorical point of view, that may be the best line uttered by the Trump defense team in this trial. From a reality point of view, it is, of course, hogwash. — PolitiTweet.org

Van Der Veen says that impeaching Trump is "constitutional cancel culture."

I like the Ottoman Empire theory. I think I will circulate it on the Internet. Maybe with a photo-shopped picture of the insurrectionists all wearing a fez like a Shriners Parade. — PolitiTweet.org
Edward-Isaac Dovere @IsaacDovere
Who's to say that Martians weren't really the ones who attacked the Capitol on January 6? Or the Ottoman Empire? Or the white walkers?

I've now watched the first 45 seconds of Schoen's presentation -- and I realize that I have been totally wrong about Donald Trump all along. What a great man. What slander by the Democratic left. Thank you David Schoen for helping me to see the light. — PolitiTweet.org

@KemberleeKaye Let's hope that we can agree next time. But, if not, that's democracy. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@KemberleeKaye Again, I was describing the case that was made Wednesday. Obviously, you disagree. But since civility has been the rule in this exchange, I want to say that I respect our disagreement. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
@KemberleeKaye That was certainly the case that the House managers made Wednesday. You may disagree with this case. But I found Raskin's argument persuasive that the Tuesday Senate vote eliminated the argument that trying Trump is unconstitutional because he is no longer president. — PolitiTweet.org

In my impeachment piece, I write: "Citizens of Paris in 1794 displayed more courage in risking the guillotine than Republican senators do in contemplating a Trump-backed primary challenge or being occasionally shunned at the country club." — PolitiTweet.org

While it's not relevant to the impeachment case, I do recall how eagerly Trump egged on violence at his 2016 campaign rallies — PolitiTweet.org

@adamnagourney @elizashapiro @conorsen Of course, Yang isn't on a glide path. FYI--I care a bit about politics and I have no idea whom I'm voting for. Yet there is this notion that most voters have a rank-ordered list of their top five choices ready to go. By the way, a bit has been going on in politics outside NYC. — PolitiTweet.org

Correction to last tweet: Dean was chosen as an impeachment manager long before that great advocate Bruce Castor was added to the Trump team. So please ignore my final sentence in the tweet below because it's incorrect. — PolitiTweet.org

@graymattersrep Absolutely. You're right. — PolitiTweet.org

Just realized that Madeleine Dean represents in the House Montgomery County in the Philadelphia suburbs, the same county where that noted advocate Bruce Castor was the DA. Somehow I suspect that this isn't a coincidence. — PolitiTweet.org

I would hate to imagine what it was like to be a defense lawyer in the Bronx having to face assistant DA Stacey Plaskett in court. — PolitiTweet.org
