WASHINGTON - Democrats worked methodically at U.S. President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial on Thursday to dismantle his long-standing allegation that Democratic presidential contender Joe Biden acted improperly toward Ukraine while vice president.
They argued that Trump pushed the Ukrainian government to probe Biden and his son because he was worried about facing the former vice president in November’s election. Biden is the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination. Trump also asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to investigate a discredited theory beneficial to Russia that Ukraine worked with Democrats to hurt Trump in the 2016 U.S. election. Trump temporarily withheld $391 million in U.S. military aid to Ukraine, which Democrats say was leverage for his demands.Trump’s lawyers quickly argued that by bringing up the Bidens, Democrats had made their conduct a relevant subject for the rest of the trial.
Democratic Representative Adam Schiff said House managers on Friday would focus on the charge that Trump unlawfully obstructed Congress by keeping key administration officials from testifying and by refusing requests for documents.
they're just repeating a few sentences over and over and over and over....
WaKe up America,how would you like to have this guy in charge of our country
Schiff brought up Burisma, opening up the need for testimony from HunterBiden. Schiff is proving to be the best player on the Republican side. 😂
House Managers have brilliantly & persuasively reconstructed Trump’s crime via the most meticulous, super-factual, line by line, conversation by conversation, person by person, day by day account even when denied access to 1st hand witnesses & new evidences. TopClass Prosecution!
There are also people that believe the earth is flat. Feelings still aren’t evidence of a crime.
Republicans should say who is their friend Ukraine or Russia for the country ?
...he wants the liberty to be a corrupt, demon possessed, satanist, and puppet of George Soros. Obama (and Nadler) Attends Fundraiser at Home of Soros Junior
More Globalist propaganda.

lots of talk, but where's the evidence?
Oh God. He’s going to offend SenSusanCollins again. He’d better watch it. She’s going from “deeply concerned” to “positively flummoxed”.
Jerry’s pants are almost up to his chin. NadlerNeckline
Nadler your party don’t even trust your abilities to lead this hoax. The rational voters see through your partisan fraud.
How many Democrat House Impeachment Managers voted against giving Ukraine any aide but are now pretending to be concerned Trump withheld $$ for a few days? Jodi Ernst knows.

Trump impeachment trial live updates: Democrats make 'abuse of power' caseNadler: 'Abuse. Betrayal. Corruption. Here are each of the core offenses the Framers fear most. The president's abuse of power, his betrayal of the national interest, and his corruption of our elections plainly qualify as great and dangerous offenses.'
