We better have a damn quick trial. This has gone on long enough.

[sheilbwright]

What a profound insight, Trump could have avoided prosecution by not committing the crime.

[deborahboggs]

perfectly said: Itsnot about right or left, its about right and wrong-

[johnm]

The American public has a right to know the verdict before the next election

[lutherprince]

In my opinion the trial can’t come soon enough!! I hope and pray Jack Smith charges all who are involved.

“ You can facilitate and further a crime through speeches “
Trump should have listened to Ty Cobb.

[Dave-htdx]

Thank you, Mr. Cobb, for being patriotic and honest still, in spite of working for defendant earlier.

[dreab]

This is not sad. This is great. This is democracy!

[robhaskins]

And this time the defendant can't count on his GOP cronies in the Senate to acquit him in the face of overwhelming evidence of malfeasance.

[Phoenix-in-flight]

Nothing sad about it. America needs to celebrate justice. Sad was Trump ever being nominated and elected in the first place. Hooray for American justice. 🎉

I think of my father who served in the army for 30 years and all I can say I am grateful he is not alive to see what TrUMP HAS DONE TO THIS is the most un-american person in this country.

The whole world must witness that USA constitution won’t be destroyed by any criminal including an U.S. expresidente.

[babajinde]

When you have no defense, and loss is almost certain, you continue to fundraise off of misinformation and delay as much as possible

[niclewis]

Great day for America, the rule of law, Democracy and the Constitution.

[BooksForever]

Perjury is a clear example of a 100% speech-based crime. “Free speech” is an idiotic defense.

[Yourdeadmeat]

Adam Kitzinger and Cheney should jump into this race.
They've EARNED it.

[sms]

Democracy wins with a transparent judicial system. The Jan 6 lawsuit and the cause of it have such a great impact on democracy, that the entire lawsuit MUST BE broadcast live and on every TV channel. Everyone should have the opportunity to watch every second of this trial live and on replay.

[jamesturner]

This situation tests the very first 3 words to the Constitution: We, the people

[teacherofteachers]

I despise Liz Cheney's politics, but I think today she should text Trump a smiley face emoji.
