It is obvious, you don't like anything about the Democrats so I would question your objectivity.
No-one is getting worked up, most of us are enjoying the theatre.
Cheney has a strong view and is cleverly laying out the evidence and he has since stepped back from what you posted. You don't seem to like her either. Fancy bringing her relationship with her sister into discussions.
Not sure anyone has stated Republicans are a legitimate threat to democracy however I imagine a number of us think that lines were crossed by Trump and his cohorts.
One Judge allowed testimony from Eastman to be heard despite Eastman stating client/lawyer privilege. In his summary the Judge also stated that two laws could have been broken. 18 USC §§1512(c)(2) and 371, most commonly mentioned as a basis for indicting Trump.
This has a way to go, I also believe that the Democrats are being cautious in what they say. If they were talking about charges, this would give Trump more fuel for fundraising and ammunition calling it a witchunt (if he isn't already saying it), thus giving him ammunition for the coming elections.
I also think that Garland is smart not making any public comment until all the evidence is laid out.
It’s a tightrope the committee are facing. There is a segment of the population who don’t know or care if republicans are trying to trash democracy (which they are).
This will get everything on public record in a dispassionate way, just the facts. It may sway some moderates and kick some Dems and their supporters to realise this isn’t a drill, the republicans are a right wing fascist party who are looking to destroy American democracy brick by brick.
I do agree with the overall premise that the Dems and many people aren’t taking the threat of Trump and the republicans seriously enough with what they are trying to do.
