GOP senator says there is "real concern" about the quality of Trump's defense

From CNN's Jeff Zeleny

A Republican senator tells CNN there is “real concern” about the quality of the former President Trump team’s defense today, saying a poor performance will make it even more difficult to defend their expected votes to acquit him.

This is a gift that never stops. They're flushing their own political futures away. And giving Democrats terrific ammunition for generations to come (if the GOP can even last that long)

when no "real" lawyers will take your case. Everyone knows trump is guilty, they know he has been lying his ass off about the "steal". All he has left now are the "clowns" who are making fools of themselves by spewing this nonsense, probably using a script written by trump himself!

And discussing the points of the impeachment team. They should be airing that damning video all day long and TRULY condemning the insurrectionist.....and anyone who supports them.

Not that it would have been needed.

If the word „concern“ were stricken from all insincere Republican pronouncements for a week, their statements would be shorter than Ogden Nash poems.
