"We've been prepared since before Christmas. And we remain prepared," a White House official said, noting that the White House has done all it can to prepare for the Senate trial while waiting for the House to name its impeachment managers. The White House is still deciding exactly who will make up the legal team defending the President during the trial.
In its response, the legal team is likely to argue that the impeachment charges do not rise to the level of"high crimes and misdemeanors." The President is not expected to appear but can be represented by his attorneys.But the meat on the bones of the President's defense will come in the form of a trial brief, which will address key legal arguments of the President's defense and the legal issues at stake, the source said.
Is 'nt it great !!! Republican Time !!!! Take those lying sob's of Dems through their own med.
Will it be everyone with knowledge that Trump and the people in his administration have committed crimes keep your mouths closed and do not testify? They know they have Moscow Mitch, Graham & Kennedy on their side.
No one cares
Let me guess, the always reliable WITCH HUNT as his defence this week?
FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS THE MEDIA HAS GONE NUTS. LISTEN TO THEIR ATTACKS ON TRUMP. THEY ARE NOT JOURNALISTS. THEY ARE AN EMBARRASSMENT TO THE COUNTRY. TWO JOURNALISM SCHOOLS HAVE RECEIVED FUNDING TO INVESTIGATE THE ACTIONS BY THE MEDIA. brianstelter
Can they be any slower
If the Senate was to call a million witnesses, and still didn't impeach Trump the Dems would still be screaming it wasn't a fair trial. The only fair trial is the one we're Trump is impeached 😋😋😋
Trump bad. Not nice man. And he's mean and orange.
For all the news reporters of cnn, aren't you feel bad for reporting fake news full of hatred, anger & lies! Don't you have a conscious? You will not last, the truth always comes to light! Lies never lasts!
'The Senate will kick off a process that will see the White House issue its first official legal response to the President's impeachment.' Many expect the White House's response to be written in crayon.
