NOW LET'S GET INTO IT.
SOME UNEXPECTED DRAMA AT PRESIDENT TRUMP'S IMPEACHMENT
TRIAL.
REPUBLICAN SENATORS ARE SCRAMBLING TO FIND ENOUGH VOTES
TO BLOCK WITNESSES FROM TESTIFYING.
REPUBLICANS ARE WORRIED THAT INTRODUCING WITNESSES TO CAUSE
HEARINGS TO EXTEND FOR WEEKS OR EVEN WORSE LEAD TO A FAIR TRIAL.
(LAUGHTER) NOW HERE'S THE THING, I'M ALL
FOR WITNESSES, HUNDRED PERCENT THERE SHOULD BE WITNESSES BUT
I'M NOT SURE I WANT THIS TO DRABBING ON ANY MORE.
LIKE THIS IS STARTING TO FEEL LIKE STAR WARS, YOU KNOW?
(LAUGHTER) I USED TO BE REALLY INTO IT, NOW
I'M JUST SORT OF WATCHING IT OUT OF SOME KIND OF OBLIGATION.
(LAUGHTER) NOW OF COURSE SENATE MAJORITY
LEADER MITCH MCCONNELL WANTS TO SHUT DOWN THIS TRIAL AS QUICKLY
AS POSSIBLE.
SO IF HE DOESN'T GET ENOUGH VOTES, HE'S GOING TO BE VERY
UPSET.
AND THE ONLY THING MORE DISTURBING THAN AN ANGRY MITCH
MCCONNELL IS A HAPPY MITCH MCCONNELL.
