Trump’s lawyers making a plea for “healing” and “unity” feels like Colonel Sanders promoting veganism. — PolitiTweet.org

“You can’t incite what was already going to happen.” What?!? — PolitiTweet.org

But no one incentivized a crowd to storm the Capitol and attack VP @JoeBiden for gaveling down objections that were out of order! — PolitiTweet.org

As expected, Castor’s opening remarks begin by offering Trump’s closing sentence on January 6th as cleansing of his entire, incendiary speech and everything that went before it. — PolitiTweet.org

Powerful closes by @RepRaskin and @RepJoeNeguse, after offering a mountain of evidence indicting Trump w/his own words & deeds. Tomorrow, Trump’s lawyers speak, knowing that-facts notwithstanding-they have enough votes in their pocket to prevail. Expect a circus of deflection. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

A year ago, @danielsgoldman helped build the case for the 1st impeachment. I just sat down with him for the #AxeFiles to talk about the 2d. “We caught him trying to do what he was doing and now, failing to cheat in the election, he tried to steal it.” Pod👉https://t.co/xfKG2k8PQr https://t.co/gzXgQ7CDiy — PolitiTweet.org

Wondering if the managers would have been smart to quit and simply sum up with the lack of remorse argument after their incredibly tight powerful case yesterday? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

I am recording The #AxeFiles this AM with former impeachment counsel @danielsgoldman to talk about the sequel. Our conversation will be up later today! https://t.co/mZRvjzSfrn — PolitiTweet.org

“I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters.” Updated: “I could incite an insurrection at the Capitol and I wouldn’t lose the support of many Republican senators.” — PolitiTweet.org

There is absolutely nothing in Cicilline’s remarks today that conflict with what Lee himself told his hometown paper. Lee’s righteous indignation at the end was a baseless stunt to disrupt what was a devastating day for Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Here’s the account @MikeLeeforUtah gave his local newspaper about intercepting a call from Trump meant for @SenTuberville during the insurrection. Not clear how this differs from the one offered today by House managers to which Lee vehemently objected. https://t.co/8VonmjfD9C — PolitiTweet.org

Untidy end to a very coherent day. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

As you listen to this compelling @JoaquinCastrotx presentation, you have to remember that this trial is about whether Trump violated his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution—and whether he has forfeited his right to hold public office again. The case is strong. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Interesting how often the House managers are extolling Mike Pence for his fidelity to the Constitution under threat of death. No reverse shots but I can only imagine a lot of uncomfortable squirming on the @GOP side of the aisle. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

“Donald Trump abdicated his duty to us all. We have to make this right. And you can make this right.” @davidcicilline just made a devastating presentation about Trump’s passivity and state of mind while the Capitol was under siege. — PolitiTweet.org

RT @DanaBashCNN: Eugene Goodman saved Mitt Romney's life. We did not know that until today. — PolitiTweet.org

Impossible to believe that as the Secret Service was evacuating Pence, Trump wasn’t informed. — PolitiTweet.org

Imagine if Trump had devoted as much energy and forethought to overturning COVID as he plainly did to overturning the election. — PolitiTweet.org

“And so they came. Draped in Trump flags and using the American flag to bludgeon.” —Rep. Dean — PolitiTweet.org

"The mob was fed lies. "They were provoked by the president and other powerful people, and they tried to use fear and violence to stop a specific proceeding of the first branch of the federal government, which they did not like." —Sen. Mitch McConnell — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Many have suggested the senate, not Trump, is on trial. But the real question is who, in THEIR minds, are their jurors? History? The Constitution? Or the voters who sent them? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

You can see why 44 @GOP senators were eager to avoid this trial. It has to be uncomfortable to sit in silence and hear this case, mostly in Trump’s own words, knowing you are certain to acquit. — PolitiTweet.org
