Mitch McConnell admitted that Dems proved their case - that Trump is guilty.

They acquitted based on a sham constitutional argument, because that’s what they were going to do.

Blaming Dems for not calling witnesses is wrongheaded.

It wouldn’t have changed *anything.*
The only thing it would have accomplished is providing Republicans more air time to “flood the zone with sh*t” (in Bannon’s words), and delay the Senate confirmations that we need to move forward.

I didn’t like the witnesses call at first either, but this is the reality.
Don’t take my word for it - listen to Stacey Plaskett. https://twitter.com/mkraju/status/1360723748060594176
Listen to Raskin
The Dems are not the ones to blame.

Mitch McConnell and the Republican Party would have ended this trial the same way, no matter what else Dems did.

Attacking the one viable political party that we still have is not the answer here.
