FOX 4’s Steven Dial spoke with constitutional lawyer David Coale about the first week of testimony.

Dial: "I know the Paxton lawyers have to do their job. That's what they're being paid for. But the claim that 31 or 30 people are deciding the fate of a duly elected official. Is there some substance to that or, I mean, you're a constitutional lawyer. This is legal, correct? This is the process." Dial: "While this is called a court of impeachment, the lieutenant governor is being seen as the judge. This is not real court. This is not criminal. This is politics.
