Then why didn't the house subpoena him and go to court to make him testify? Still waiting for this answer

That question has been answered, many times. Just let them testify and turn over the documents as requested, that's what a non-guilty Administration would do.

LMAO it was the houses job to gather and bring said evidence. Now who is the idiots?

LMAO squared.
They brought evidence. Enough to legitimately impeach Trump. The trial is the responsibility of the Senate.
The house did their job. Will the Senate do theirs? It looks as if they will try their damnedest not to.
Will the Trump leg humpers accept the Senate neglecting their sworn constitutional duties? Of course they will.

It's been answered 100 times. Because they were trying to expedite the process.
They knew Trump was going to fight every subpoena and that the Senate would have more leverage.

Why would it matter if what you are doing is right ? Instead of sniffing the political winds , I would think taking your time , doing it right , crossing your I’s and dotting your T’s would be what you’d be seeking instead of pushing it through . 🤷‍♂️

Lol. The senate would gladly get on with the “trial” if they could.

Maybe they should have let it play out over months and in the courts. Had they gone that route, we all know that the redhatted would be screaming about prolonging it into the election cycle for political reasons and that they would hold the vote if there was enough evidence. It was a judgement call.
Either way, it has nothing to do with the Senate's duties of having a trial.

You don't actually believe that do you?
There's nothing stopping them......other than the pathetic desire to protect Trump by suppressing the truth.

To properly complete the process they need to pass the articles over to the senate. Let’s get on with it.

The senate can’t have a trial until they get the paperwork . It’s kinda like the DA telling the judge and jury he won’t present the case until the court is ran the way he wants it to be ran . So what’s being done now is pure politics .

All McConnell has to do is say that the Senate will hold a legitimate trial. Instead he's publicly stated the opposite numerous times.....and yes, that is pure politics.

I think everyone knows that.
That's why she is stuck using the little leverage she has in her efforts to guarantee a legitimate trial.

She has no leverage, none whatsoever. The longer she withholds the impeachment paperwork the worse it make the whole process and the Dems look.

She has the leverage of not releasing the impeachment paperwork. That's why we're having this conversation.
Had she released the paperwork immediately, the Senate would have already acquitted with no trial.
Each day adds a little more pressure for at least a semblance of legitimacy.
Take Bolton's comments about his willingness to testify for example.
I call that leverage, but the term is not important.

There is no pressure on the Senate. Without the paperwork they can't so crap so why would they feel any pressure?

No the house is responsible for the the evidence. All they wanted was stupid career hack diplomats who despite what they think do not run things to come and say in private yes we think this is impeachable even though we're don't have first hand knowledge. You would think you idiots would learn. But keep driving this party right over the cliff. Those if us with good sense about us will gladly watch this.

Your Democrats in the house are responsible for throwing up their hands and taking their ball home.
And to answer your stupid question because he's the M..Fn president! For 5 more years

They're not my Democrats. I didn't vote for a single one of them. That being said, the trial is in the Senate, not the House. Stupid question? LOL...there's an illustration of you in the dictionary next to the word "stupid"
