Impeachment Trial: Day 1

Published | Video Starts at 00:09

But what today was about was whether or not The United States Senate, in a trial, is going to have witnesses and documents, relevant evidence of what we're seeking from four witnesses and lots and lots of documents. And I think unless Republicans change their voting pattern, which is to vote against every single Democratic motion, to get those witnesses and get those documents, then I think the Republicans are part of the Trump cover up and they have an opportunity.
