The sham impeachment trial is underway with both sides delivering their opening arguments.
It’s already a circus, with Dems using an “edited” video to try and make President Trump look “guilty” of obstruction.
.@RepZoeLofgren just replayed the same deceptively-edited clip of Trump talking about Article II — where they cut out the part in which he makes it clear he is talking about the power to fire Robert Mueller, not power to do anything that he wants #ImpeachmentTrial #shampeachment

The Dems are grasping at straws.
This embarrassing political attack should have never happened.
It’s unconstitutional and a waste of taxpayer time and money.
But nevertheless, here we are. And Dems are in trouble. This sham impeachment is no longer in the safe confines of the kook-run House. It’s now in the upper chamber of the Senate and President Trump’s elite legal team is tearing it apart bit by bit.
Pat Cipollone:
"Obstruction for going to court? It's an act of patriotism to defend the constitutional rights of the president because if they can do it to the president, they could do it to any of you, and they could do it to any American citizen. That's wrong." pic.twitter.com/IA5vTmXBT6

However, the Dems may have a more immediate problem.
It appears their own “team” is now questioning how this process played out.

The very rabid anti-Trump Senator Mazie Hirono is suggesting Schiff and his impeachment sham did not do their jobs by saying all of this discovery regarding the impeachment should have been done at the House level and it was not.
You can watch the video below:
WATCH:
Sen. Hirono, who has already said she will "vote to convict him," tells CNN that House Dems didn't do their job:
"If we were following the Clinton precedent, there would have been all of this discovery done at the House level, and that's not what's happening at all." pic.twitter.com/oOY30SUTRn

This is just another political game being played by the Democrats. There is no crime. There is no evidence of a crime. All they have are a bunch of anti-Trump bureaucrats and unelected officials who don’t like his foreign policy and want to change the outcome of an impending 2020 Trump landslide.
They won’t win as long as GOP Senators stand their ground and treat this sham the same way they treated the Kavanaugh hit job.
