Washington Post, Dec. 23: "Congress headed toward a long standoff over the parameters of the Senate trial of President Trump as all sides dug in Monday, with Democrats demanding documents and witnesses while Republicans mocked the House delay in transmitting the impeachment articles across the Capitol."
Democrats are demanding documents and witnesses? Since when is it wrong to demand that witnesses be allowed in any trial? Is this happening in America? Doesn't a trial, almost by definition, have witnesses?
In this encounter between the R's and the D's, I must side with the Democrats. Where does the idea even come from that there shouldn't be witnesses? Of course there should. It's a trial, isn't it?
