1. Trump is watching. Or his aides are. Doubt Trump could recall anything she said.

2. Ugh. He is the worst person in the world.

He is corrupt, a liar, and a fraud. And notice how he brings President Obama into it and then denigrates him by referring to him as "O."

He is a despicable little man.

7. I could go for a dose of Keith Olberman right now.

And where is he?

[Funtatlaguy]

9. Went back into sports. Great mind but bad social skills.

[2naSalit]

11. That's what I thought...

I liked some of his commentary, especially his "Worst Person in the World".

14. Superb writer but couldn't get along with coworkers.

Lost many jobs because OF his temper and lost girlfriend Katy Tur of MSNBC.

16. Oh my!

Did not know about that. I had heard he was a problem child off-set but that's about it.

3. I thought the so called president wasn't watching! Being the Liar-in-chief as usual, and ...

continuing to obstruct justice and taint the good reputations of people he chose for those positions in government to begin with, and it must really rankle him that his own people are turning against him. Scumbag.

4. He is a fucking miserable, pathetic human being

A lawmaker tells me Democrats are going to address this tweet in the hearing.

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump

Everywhere Marie Yovanovitch went turned bad. She started off in Somalia, how did that go? Then fast forward to Ukraine, where the new Ukrainian President spoke unfavorably about her in my second phone call with him. It is a U.S. President’s absolute right to appoint ambassadors.

15. I hope Trump's face turned bright red when Schiff scolded him.

What a worthless human being we have in the White House. What an endless nightmare.

[Dennis Donovan]

18. Chuck Rosenberg just mentioned that Trump's tweet to a witness already intimidated...

...only compounds any case for witness intimidation.

[GoCubsGo]

6. The shit has met the fan.

God, or whomever, help us. I hope we can survive whatever that petty, vindictive sack of shit is about to dish out.

10. And Schiff sends a warning to Trump during a statement to the former ambassador re: Trump's tweets

Paraphrasing : He warned that some on the committee take witness intimidation very seriously.

Excellent.

[question everything]

12. Yes, indeed

[Mike 03]

13. That was powerful.

As for Trump, he's a bottom-feeder, a grifter, a lowlife, a loser, an accomplisher of nothing ever, and a lot of words I wouldn't post here.

20. Chris Matthews has been excellent in his compelling historical perspective

I'm not always a fan of his. But in the last few minutes he's been the historian. Even comparing Trump to Sen. McCarthy. And he asserted that he feels that the ambassador is intimidating Trump big time. A very telling observation.

I'm glad I'm recording both MSNBC and C-Span2.

17. Wow, even Bret Baier from Fox noticed...

That was a turning point in this hearing so far. She was already a sympathetic witness & the President’s tweet ripping her allowed Schiff to point it out real time characterizing it as witness tampering or intimidation -adding an article of impeachment real-time.

19. & *BOOM*!1 it was brilliant of SCHIFF to put it into the record: Crime in progress!1

[EndlessWire]

21. Is she still working?

If she is, she won't be employed shortly. I feel for her. A distinguished career destroyed by the Killer of All Things Good.

(She's responsible for Somalia???) FU, Trump.

It was gracious of her to mention all the Ambassadors who have died in service. She didn't have to, but she showed respect. She gave us a good view of the career and the sacrifices made in service to our country.

Trump is an embarrassment to our country. His contribution is to eat cheeseburgers, golf, and tweet. Why can't he just keel over.

22. "proceeding administrations"

Yes Mr. President, by all means, "proceed."
