Rep. Schiff, the lead Democratic impeachment manager, says on MeetThePress that a Senate trial without additional witnesses won’t translate to an exoneration of President Trump.

And they argued that none of the witnesses who spoke with the House impeachment investigators directly linked Trump to any leveraging of aid for political favors.

It’s unclear whether the presentation by impeachment managers moved any Senate votes, and a handful of senators emerged from Schiff’s closing statements on Friday frustrated about histhat Trump allies warned Republican senators against bucking the president. Shortly after Schiff’s appearance, Indiana Republican Sen. Mike Braun shared his perspective on “Meet the Press.”

MeetThePress We’re back to this? 🙄

MeetThePress Too bad but thats just what an acquittal means

MeetThePress Hello Mr Schiff. Me have nude pee pee tapes. Two for American dollar. How many you like?

MeetThePress Ok just because SCHITTY SCHIFF SAYS SO🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣

MeetThePress You're burying the lead. There is a hit out on Schiff and he knows it. MSNBC/NBC is too timid to admit it

MeetThePress 🙄😂🤮

MeetThePress Exactly! Now that John Bolton’s book is out he will need to testify! Democrats will be demanding this & are!!!!!!

MeetThePress He doesn’t need to be exonerated. He just needs to be re-elected. Thanks to Schiff he is a lock to win.

MeetThePress Yes, Trump will be exonerated, but we will not get the truth at this time. In a few years, yes. Trump will go to rallies 3x/wk to tell how he was ramroded, how dems are stupid, & he will win again. Also, all roads lead to Russia.

MeetThePress Loser says what?

MeetThePress Exoneration isn't needed pencil neck, because he still will be President when taking a victory lap at the State of the Union. Give me a GOP Senate and House and a rule change where we can eliminate a Term Limit for the Greatest President in our lifetime.

MeetThePress Was he asked to produce evidence of Russia collusion? Was he asked why he planned this impeachment sham with his buddy whistleblower? Was he asked why his whistleblower lied on Trump? Was he asked why he blocked Republicans from having witnesses ? MTP is a scripted scam

MeetThePress It is about time the left crawled back into there government hole, trashing ones President, only makes the left look more of a loser than they already are.

MeetThePress “You are not Recognized. Request Denied”

MeetThePress Schiff is the kind who are never ashamed for doing corrupt and immoral things in life. He is an actor doing his stuff, not in Hollywood, but in DC. 100% phony. Defeated and humiliated 100 times he is still Media's winner. God bless Trump.

MeetThePress Silly rules It's completely out off line Far from Vincit omnia Veritas

MeetThePress LMAO 3 years of talk. Where's the beef? Lots of mashed potatoes. There comes a time when it becomes monotonous and a dead end.

MeetThePress NO, you think not! 😅😂😅 McConnell will dismiss and the demo demon 👹 sh-t stain will always remain as a reminder of the Social DemoDemon Party and the lack of intelligence the likes of which are blaring with the geek, 🥴, and Mr. Suspenders (NADLER)!!

MeetThePress

MeetThePress Oh yes it will oh lying one. It shows your incompetence and unwillingness to do your job fully and completely. Putting it on the Senate to prove what you couldn’t is not how this works. You know this and are only trying to cover up your botched job.

MeetThePress It already has in my eyes. Adam Schiff is the only one caught lying time after time. He is an unstable liability to the UNITED STATES CONGRESS. The lunatic has a personal hatred for our President and should be expelled from Congress.

MeetThePress I’m not a lawyer. Does exoneration equate to co-conspiracy? Haven’t heard a defense yet?

MeetThePress The Republicans do not want exoneration they want acquittal. They are going for acquittal because they know the president is guilty

MeetThePress The two articles of impeachment do not allege impeachable conduct.

MeetThePress When did Schiff become the expert on everything. According to Schiff, he's right and everyone else is to blindly follow his ideas. It's a shame he's so mentally challenged.

MeetThePress Meet the Depressed is basically a Trump trial every week. Sad that their journalism practices such leaning tendencies rather than objectively and truthfully informing the public. That’s not in the NBC manual.

MeetThePress Same guy who had been saying For three years that he already had proof.

MeetThePress Lol says who? You? That’s your own fault, no subpoenas no challenges in court and you rushed through a hearsay and assumption based case of garbage. Be thankful you got that $20k pen out of the deal. Consider it severance pay. Cmon people of CA do better.

MeetThePress I think it’s time for Schiff to just shut up and go away. He has been proven to be a liar. He’s torn our country apart based on lies.

MeetThePress W0W.. demacrara doing everything they can to re elect Trump!

MeetThePress Trump will always be guilty, destroying the foundational principles of Anglo-American justice in the process.

MeetThePress The actual vote will do that.

MeetThePress DORK.

MeetThePress So in other words the impeachment hunt for a crime will continue. Voices will be heard this November.

MeetThePress Shocking.

MeetThePress Nadless Nadler entirely disagrees, Mr SchiffHead.

MeetThePress But the journalist failed to ask simple question. Why didn't congressman make house testimony fair for the president? People can see the bias here. This is the reason people don't trust journalist anymore. I saw this journalist asking tough questions but only when they'r GOP

MeetThePress

MeetThePress Adam schiff should have done his job in house if he still wants to try investigating more people on the matter. He failed to provide hard evidence. It’s all hearsay

MeetThePress We need 4 republicans. Hopefully we have 4 that are on America’s side not the trump crime family side

MeetThePress It doesn’t matter what happens after this. trump’s life will be a living hell. They've all been exposed. They got cocky because of trumps ignorant uneducated base but the majority of Americans with an ounce of common sense are quite aware and we are furious!

MeetThePress 😂😂 I could have called witnesses... 😂😂 but didn’t... 😂😂... gave the flaming turd to you the Senate) to fix...😂😂. You’re welcome. 😳😳🤦‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🇺🇸

MeetThePress Yes it will nbc, schitt doesn't know what he talking about.

MeetThePress Does that mean that the impeachment decision without those witnesses doesn’t translate into an indictment of the President?

MeetThePress Schiff lies more than a cheap throw-rug.

MeetThePress Brilliant argument

MeetThePress Wanna make 💰 5⃣0⃣0⃣0⃣ real quick ❓DM no catches..lmk ASAP 🇨🇦🇺🇸

MeetThePress The Senate itself is on trial and if it proves to be as corrupt and rotten as it seems I have a feeling there's going to be seismic backlash from the American people in November. Pick your poison gop

MeetThePress

MeetThePress Incredibly backwards...a Senate trial without 67 votes to impeach won't translate to an exoneration of House Articles of Impeachment...and everyone who can read the Constitution knew that 47 Democratic Senators were not going to produce 67 votes to impeach a year ago...

MeetThePress Nice try Schifty. But unless he is removed it is an exoneration despite your assertion.

MeetThePress You are really a nut case

MeetThePress But chairman Schitt also stated that the evidence presented in the house was overwhelming, can’t have it both ways!!! This guy is a corrupt loser!!!

MeetThePress Democrats are the party of the KKK. Still using the same tactics. Playing Judge, juror and prosecutor using hearsay, gossip and presumptions. Exactly what they use to do to Blacks. Now they will do to anyone that disagrees with them.

Republicans blast Adam Schiff for 'head on a pike' remark during impeachment trialSenate Republicans expressed dismay after the House Intelligence Committee Chairman repeated an anonymously-sourced quote which said Donald Trump will put senators' 'head on a pike' if they vote against the president. Just another lie from Adam SchiffForBrains If we think of Senate trial on level of an appeal then its a matter of precedent and interpretation of law including flaws in process. Witnesses and documents are a matter of record no need to rehash whats been documented Republicans are liars creating faux outrage where they have no substantive claim.
