The Republicans have already said they won't allow any witnesses to be called and crossexamined; and they they are going to find Trump not-guilty no matter what the evidence (imagine a jury declaring that before a jury trial?), so why go through with a stupid charade? Nancy is better to hold on to the impeachment articles and present them to the American people before next year's election instead. The Republicans have brought this on themselves, so if it gets weaponized in attack ads next year, then they only have themselves to blame. They've done it to themselves.

And by next year's election, John Bolton's book will be published. I imagine there will be plenty of insider dirt in that after Trump shit on him big-time. He knows where the bodies are buried.

All the more reason to refuse to allow Republicans to hold a sham trial and put the evidence before the American people instead.
