Schoen is pretending like Trump would have welcomed witnesses and hearings and been happy if Chief Justice Roberts presided over this trial. But everyone knows that none of that is true. This isn’t on the level, but the point is to invent procedural excuses for Rs to not convict. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s in bad faith for Trump’s lawyer to claim that Democrats didn’t want the impeachment trial to begin before Biden’s inauguration. McConnell had already announced he wouldn’t bring back the Senate earlier. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) studied papers in his lap, taking only the tiniest glimpses at the screen to his right. A few seats over, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) also focused most of his attention on papers in front of him instead of on the images. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) did the same. — PolitiTweet.org

While the House impeachment managers showed the chilling video of Trump inciting the mob, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) looked down at a pad of lined paper in his lap, where he had already begun doodling with a pencil. Via @karoun: https://t.co/9m4ISRByvs — PolitiTweet.org

Bruce Castor ends his 50 minute speech by noting that Trump “was removed from office by the voters.” This is very true — he lost by more than 7 million votes — but I can’t imagine that this line played well at Mar-a-Lago.... — PolitiTweet.org

Bruce Castor appears to lack the most elementary understanding of the Founders’ conception of “high crimes and misdemeanors.” — PolitiTweet.org

Bruce Castor says the Trump lawyers called an audible after hearing the House impeachment managers deliver their opening presentation. It shows. — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
In the 45 minutes he’s been talking, Bruce Castor has name checked Pat Toomey, Bob Casey, Ben Sasse, Joe Manchin, Chuck Schumer, Mitch McConnell and a few others I have probably forgotten. — PolitiTweet.org
James Hohmann @jameshohmann
There are some very talented and crafty lawyers who are Senate Republicans. It would be fun to see their thought bubbles as Bruce Castor delivers whatever this is. But I think it’s pretty easy to guess what they’d say if we could put them on truth serum. — PolitiTweet.org

Two of my dearest friends earned their law degrees from Washington and Lee University, which is where they met & fell in love. They are talented attorneys. But Bruce Castor’s opening speech is not a great advertisement for W&L. Either that or he skipped ConLaw while he was there. — PolitiTweet.org

Bruce Castor’s insistence that English common law precedents before the Constitution was written are totally irrelevant in understanding original intent is mindblowingly unsophisticated and wrong. — PolitiTweet.org

Apparently Bruce Castor doesn’t follow news out of Washington if he thinks partisanship ranks low on the list of senatorial motives. — PolitiTweet.org
