On the other side of that question, if the President is as innocent as he indicates, why is he obstructing the appearance of witnesses and the introduction of documentary evidence? No one who is innocent ever blocked testimony to support said innocence. Ever.
As someone recently said, if there are no witnesses and evidence, there really is no trial.
I see you know little about how trials work. If the prosecution presents its case and the defense feels the evidence is not sufficient it moves for a dismissal or a direct verdict of not guilty. The defense is under no obligation to produce witnesses. The burden of proof is on the prosecution.
