The spectacularly absurd new process arguments from @SenatorCollins and @SenJoniErnst show just how weak the Trump defense has become.

Now that 71% support hearing from witnesses at Trump's trial, it's clear this epic gaslighting is failing.

New piece:

@SenatorCollins @SenJoniErnst We should be gratified that 55% say House inquiry was fair and 71% want witnesses at trial.

Trump and his propagandists have relentlessly gaslit us with the idea that impeachment is an anti-Trump fringe/elite obsession.

The reality is quite different:

@SenatorCollins @SenJoniErnst Now that McConnell has rejected Schumer's call for witnesses, don't let them memory-hole this.

McConnell *already gave away the game.* He said the trial will be shaped in total accord with Trump's political needs.

Nothing else he and Rs say now matters:
