No Due Process
Trump’s defense team argues the House never afforded the president due process of law. The team of lawyers argues that because the House rushed the proceedings and violated Trump’s Constitutional right to due process of law the case is “tainted” and should be thrown out. Democrats claimed time was of the essence however the House actually took longer to deliver the impeachment article to the Senate than it did to investigate and hold a debate.
The memo reads:
“Democratic Members of the House have argued that then-President Trump’s alleged offense was so grave and his power so immense that there was no time to wait for the actual facts to come to light. In a crocodile-tear-stained letter, Representative Ilhan Omar, herself no stranger to extremist rhetoric, exhorted her colleagues by saying, “The urgency of this moment is real and we have to be courageous and unified in defense of our Republic…Every single hour that Donald Trump remains in office, our country, our democracy, and our national security remain in danger. Congress must take immediate action to keep the people of this country safe and set a precedent that such behavior cannot be tolerated.” Of course, President Trump’s term came to an end without the apocalyptic predictions of the all-seeing Rep. Omar coming to pass.”
