A ham sandwich would make better litigation. It's so awkward and embarrassing to see such buffoonery and clownishness.

The cow lover is on

They just keep harping on the Steele memo and "conspiracy" about corruption by our side and Ukraine in 2016

I don't hear word one about the actual reason why we're having an impeachment or one argument about actual facts of the case

And posters?, really?

CLOWNS!

So I don't have an aneurism or start bleeding from the eyes and ears

It's pitiful in the extreme

They flat out won't talk about the real world

16. Every lawyer has been there. The witness just ate your lunch and you really have nothing to say.

The smart thing to do is to say (as dismissively as possible), "no questions for this witness."

Most lawyers will tap dance, obfuscate, ask confusing questions, talk as loudly as possible, and then triumphantly thank the witness for his/her testimony.
