So, the Senate just voted 55/45 to subpoena Witnesses. They now are going to force Trump to testify under oath. Linsey Graham changed his vote from no to yes. We knew he was a faggot.

The 5th cannot be used in an impeachment trial. Did you not listen on rhe first day. If he pleads the 5th they will take it as he is guilty. They can claim this because its not a criminal trial but an impeachment trial. There are different rules.
THIS IS NOT A CRIMINAL CASE WHAT AREN'T YOU UNDERSTANDING. ITS NOT CRIMINAL THERE FOR THERE IS NO 5TH.
He can be put in jaail for not answering with the held under contempt bullshit. Plus we force people to testify against themselves all the time.
They have police and they have jails. This is the government you are talking about. And yes they can force you to take the stand. This isnt a normal court.
And you're forgetting that this isn't a normal criminal court. There is no real world penalty to Trumo being "convicted" by this circus.
Right incitement to over throw a government if found guilty here in impeachment means nothing.....when all they have to do is file under criminal charges.
Five Republicans—including Sens. Susan Collins (R-Maine), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), Mitt Romney (R-Utah), Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.)—joined Democrats to vote for calling at least one witness.
Graham initially voted against subpoenaing witnesses, but later changed his vote to an “aye.” He said earlier that Trump’s counsel will call many witnesses if the House impeachment managers decide to call witnesses.
So if they arnt going by the rules what makes you think they wont go against the rules and make him testify. You said it its a shit show.
Even ted cruz says they could try and force him to testify
If Trump chooses not to testify, he cannot be made to do so.
Five dollar feburany like subway. Trump just needs to eat a sub while holding up his hand in a high five
This isnt a normal court case you are thinking like it is. If he doesn't answer they can take his non answer as him being guilty. This is not a criminal court but an impeachment court and they have different rules.
And you're forgetting that this isn't a normal criminal court. There is no real world penalty to Trump being "convicted" by this circus.
You are still acting like the constitution means anything to these people. They dont fucking care about our bill of right the constitution or any of our laws.
I hope they get Melissa Carone to testify so this bullshit finally gets interesting.
Was the Citizens Grand Jury assembled yet?
