It just kind of hit me as Rep. Plaskett is laying out the shananigans...

[Montauk6]

It's not just Trump on trial nor the GOP nor the insurrectionists nor even his cultists. This is an accounting, for the entire world to see, don't forget, every cross burner, swastika painter, fire bomber, and tiki torch thug on the Right going way back before Trump was making sitcom cameos let alone putting ugly-ass curtains in the Oval Office.

Way overdue, IMHO and high praise to the Gentlewoman from the Virgin Islands.

1. Del Plaskett was incredible!

[Hoyt]

2. They've all been incredible. GOPers won't convict, but anyone who watched knows the truth.

3. This is going to do irreparable damage to the GOP, especially if they don't vote

to convict. I know some people are wondering what the point of this Impeachment is if Republicans won't vote to convict. I think we know what the point is, and it will be part of the historical record.

4. Exactly.

Their refusal to convict is going to leave a mark, one that they can never erase - from the minds of American voters all the way into the books of American History.

5. I believe part of reason is for future prosecutions, get their insurrection on the record.

6. Yup - lots of extremely compelling evidence.
