Donnie's New? Lawyer Wants No Video

[WHITT]

of the domestic terrorist attack of the Capitol shown at the impeachment trial, as he claims Donnie had nothing to do with it.



David Schoen has previously defended mobsters, as well as Roger Stone, who was convicted of seven counts of obstruction of justice and lying to Congress.

1. I don't think that is his decision

but he can demand all he wants, doesn't mean he'll get it.

[PatSeg]

5. Its probably a lot of grandstanding for his client's benefit

He wants to be sure he gets paid.

[Bettie]

12. Only way to be sure he gets paid is to

get a different client!

[PatSeg]

16. Okay, I laughed out loud!

Yes, if people want to get paid, they need to get a check upfront. Trump's long history of not paying his bills is legendary. Meanwhile, I'm sure his new lawyers will put on a good show so Trump thinks he's getting a bang for his buck. In the process, Trump still gets the media attention that we all know he craves.

6. Of Course Not

but he claims it will prevent the country from "healing".

2. Get your popcorn dude, we're going to the movies

He must be scared of these videos because they’re pretty damning.It might give us senators flashbacks and PTSD

3. let's start with no lies

donnie's involvement is the subject of the trial so he can't argue the way he is

[DonaldsRump]

4. Oh, yes, sure! Good point! Definitely no videos.

If this is the kind of lawyering that Trump has.....well, just wow. Just wow.

[WHITT]

7. Hey

he did such a great job for Roger!

8. Bottom of the barrel scraping.

Translation: No one else would touch his case.

10. The absurdity is that the impeachment article states he incited the insurrection.

On what possible legal basis could you withhold videos from being admitted into evidence that go to the heart of the article of impeachment?

IMO, the House Managers need to introduce TONS of videos and pictures into evidence so that it becomes part of the permanent record of this horrible event. Generations from now should not be allowed to forget it, something that the Rethugs are desperately trying to do today.

13. Of course. And it will never happen as Dems are the new sheriff in town.

Democrat Patrick Leahy is will preside over the trial in the Senate and Democrate Chuck Schumer is the majority leader so they will decide on witnesses and video, not trump's cut rate attorney.

9. No pictures of victims at a murder trial...you wouldn't want to prejudice the jury

Their requests just reinforce they don’t have a leg to stand on.

[WHITT]

15. BINGO!

[Jim__]

11. What about a video of Donnie saying, We're going to march on the Capitol building?

That's probably too provocative.

14. They need to play that clip the very first thing...

...every day.
