If McConnell opts for a witness free kangaroo court.

Key House Democrats pressing the Senate to hear from new witnesses in President Trump’s impeachment trial are leaving the door open to another possibility: calling those witnesses themselves if Senate Republicans do not.
House Democrats impeached Trump last month on two charges related to his handling of foreign policy in Ukraine, but their investigations into the issue remain open even as the spotlight turns to the launch of the Senate trial.
Democrats in both chambers are hoping the emergence of new evidence and eyewitness offers to testify will force Senate GOP leaders to consider the unexplored information, including captivating details of Trump’s pressure campaign recently provided by Lev Parnas, a Soviet-born businessman with close ties to Trump's personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani.

This is so funny. Parnes has been always drunk. Serious credibility problems, and currently a number of pending court cases on his crimes.
CNN's Jake Tapper knocks Dems for rushing to trust Lev Parnas: He has a 'serious credibility problem.

The big question is whether Parnas can be trusted. The short answer is no. Parnas lacks credibility and has plenty of incentive to bend the truth.

If he says something negative about Trump then he will suddenly become the most credible witness alive according to Democrats. GOP should not even entertain the thought of calling him as a witness. His credibility is zero.

This trial is a waste of time and money of the taxpayers, our money. The case has no merit. This is a joke and McConnell puts up with it. Coward!
Doing that makes the wrong right. Must be dismissed, the sooner the better to save our time and money. Get this Kangaroo product out of my sight please!

The Dems had their chance to call all the witnesses they wanted or subpoena them. If they hadn't been in such a rush to impeach all this "new" info would have come out. The Senate has no obligation to do what Nancy wants now. If witnesses are called I believe the Dems will be running for the hills.

Nothing Trump could produce will satisfy Democrats because impeachment was never about crimes or real evidence, but only about hate.

Why would we trust the dem's to do anything honestly. I remember how they could produce an endless stream of victims during the Kavanuagh hearings. LOL! Thus we could have witnesses out the wazoo and none with the credibility of a snake like Cohen.

Democrats have two incentives to bend the truth. Hate and the 2020 election.

The men in Ukraine said they've never talked to him.
He's lying.

I suspect that Mitch will allow the Dems just as many witnesses as Polosi allowed the Republicans to put up on the stand. ZERO! What goes around is sure to come back and bite the Dems in the crotch.

It's time to put up the following just to name a few: Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, Hillary Clinton, Schiff, Nadler, the president of Ukraine, Barry Obamer, and whoever negotiated that wonderful treaty with Iran. The Ukrainian president will vouch for Don on the phone call. The rest of them should be made to account for their individual treasonous actions.
