The impeachment trial of @realDonaldTrump to be the first in U.S. history to have no witnesses.

@SenAlexander of Tennessee: Jan. 30, 2020

“The question then is not whether the president did it," he said of Trump withholding aid to Ukraine needed to defend itself from Russia.
@realDonaldTrump @SenAlexander but whether the United States Senate or the American people should decide what to do about what he did. I believe that the Constitution provides that the people should make that decision in the presidential election that begins in Iowa on Monday. "

@realDonaldTrump @SenAlexander to be clear, even if Murkowski becomes a 3rd GOP vote for witnesses, it would be a 50-50 draw, so just a failure.

Justice Roberts would have to step in and that's totally not expected.

the vast majority of Rs don't want witnesses and they want the trial over by tonight.
@realDonaldTrump @SenAlexander and for any disgruntled voices in this space, the House did not hold a trial. It held hearings.

The Senate holds trials.
