A major reason is that seniority (the gold standard of the House) played a much smaller role in Pelosi's choice of the impeachment managers this time around. Raskin, for example, has just started his third term. Neguse is just in his second term. The is the meritocracy at work. — PolitiTweet.org

I think it is safe to say that the impeachment managers are taking Trump's words both seriously and literally. — PolitiTweet.org

@jameshohmann Not that I recall regarding the Clinton impeachment. Ken Starr reveled in the seamy details. — PolitiTweet.org

@rschles I guess a telephone threat not to pay them wouldn't be very persuasive given Trump's payment history. — PolitiTweet.org

I've been offline for an hour. Has Trump fired any lawyers while I've been gone? — PolitiTweet.org

Terrific: "Republicans are shocked that this Green Room regular has said critical things about the GOP...What has them on the fainting couches is that she used Twitter to do it! Republicans are right: Anyone who sullies the polite society that is Twitter should leave Washington." — PolitiTweet.org

Of course, that doesn't explain Burr or Portman who are also retiring and voted to close down the trial. — PolitiTweet.org

Amazing how quickly my headache went away after I turned off the Trump trial defense. — PolitiTweet.org

CASSIDY votes with Dems that the trial is constitutional. He wasn’t one of the 5 Republicans who voted that way last time.
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Schoen's repeated reference to impeaching former officials is, of course, bogus. The House impeached Trump when he was president. The only issue, which Schoen doesn't seem to want to address, is holding a trial after an impeached official leaves office. — PolitiTweet.org

As a former Carter speechwriter, I rise on a point of personal privilege to say that nothing about Carter's handling of the Iranian hostage crisis was impeachable. Not in 1980 and not today. End of paid political announcement. — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
By the way, I do like Schoen’s repeated use of the title “Private Citizen Trump.” Not as good as “Disgraced Former President,” but I do like it. — PolitiTweet.org

@kausmickey My apologies. Serves me right for multi-tasking while watch the Trump trial. — PolitiTweet.org

Isn't it about time for the Trump defense to enter into its "If the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit" phase? — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
I appreciate it. But the only limitation on this data is the number of House incumbents who run unopposed and states like California that raise the possibility of the final candidates being from the same party. — PolitiTweet.org

Did Castor just concede that "the American people spoke" and they "picked a new administration"? Asking on behalf of a retiree at Mar-a-Lago who is watching at home. — PolitiTweet.org

Oh horrors! The dread "slippery slope principle." — PolitiTweet.org
Walter Shapiro @MrWalterShapiro
Thrilled that we have hit the essence of the Trump defense via Castor: "We don't have a king." Well, Donald Trump certainly wanted every Republican to bow and scrape before his mightiness. — PolitiTweet.org

The powerful presentation by the House impeachment managers is a marked contrast to the first Trump trial. A major difference: Pelosi didn't let House seniority dictate who would be impeachment managers this time around. — PolitiTweet.org

“Dad, I don’t want to come back to the Capitol” should be long remembered as a coda to impeachment. — PolitiTweet.org

@JonSeaton18 I absolutely hate no-pitch intentional walks. But the worst, the absolute worst, is ghost runner on second. At least, the 2021 playoffs will be limited to 10 teams instead of becoming like hockey. — PolitiTweet.org
