Excuse me, what judge?

Impeachment is ultimately decided by the American public, how much they know/learn, and how much they become fed up with tRump. These decisions do not deal with legalities but opinions. And televised hearings will certainly influence public opinions, especially those mostly apolitical voters who don't pay attention until it's all they're hearing ...and perhaps even a few of the illiterate humpers.

Their senators will cast their votes according to what they believe with keep them in office
>.<

So, let's have the hearings; give them no more "legislative excuses" for not turning documents over. Let's drag the hearings out and not call for a vote until we think the public has heard enough to turn the tide in the Senate. That way, the Senate will less likely to vote no on impeachment.
