Why did the house need "witnesses" to tell them what is impeachable anyway?

The entire idea made no sense.
They've spent MONTHS telling us that impeachment is a political action that doesn't actually require a crime in the legal sense.
Now, they hold these hearings which I can only assume are intended to prove to regular folks that what was done is "impeachable"?
Two things. 1. One would think a sitting congressman could do this without needing professors. 2. They went and got people who make Decatur look non-partisan.
What's that? They might as well have put Hillary on the stand.

They wanted these so called constitutional experts to go on record as saying they have the right to impeach based upon this bullshite grandstanding.

The more you have to explain that something is wrong, the less likely it is that it is actually wrong.

My first comment this morning on the hearing thread was the Dims were so discombobulated and confused with their impeachment BS they needed some hack leftist university law professors to give credence to their impeachment inquiry. Lol!

Because they are trying to pretend this isn’t just a blatant political hit job.
Problem is that there is no “there” there which just makes it look like even more of one than we know it is.

Black baby-raper Adam Schiff told us there was 'ample evidence I plain sight' of #MuhCollusion, why would he lie about this?

That’s the only purpose it served. They were hoping the rank-and-file American would see this and say “wow, these people are experts...I guess he MUST have done SOMETHING.”
The problem is, they picked 3 of the biggest partisan hacks they could find, one of whom was arrogant enough to drag DJT’s 13 year old son into it. THAT backfired BIGLY.

And let’s be honest... what legitimate constitutional scholar could they trot out to sell this load of shite but a couple of sky screamers?
Dershowitz et all aren’t going out on a limb for this shite.

They did, the wrong way.

Great observation.... I’m betting on grandstanding and they know they don’t stand a fricking chance in the debates against President 12”.

It’s just political theater to feed to their base.

They need someone who appears scholarly and credible to convince the average American that something impeachable happened.
They need that because there are no facts, only presumptions that have created impeachable offenses.
If they had facts, there would have been a vote to impeach by now. Gotta find a way to sell the public.

For the political theater. It's a show.

Because Trump has literally broken DC. Now everyone up there thinks they have to "sell" their ideas. And that's all that was. "Like, zomg look at that genius level people! If they think he should be impeached we should totally do it, right? Lol right!"
It's really that simple.

Notwithstanding the intended pun, I believe this is more of a factual statement than anything that was said today by the Naddler's three amigos.
