what do you make of what congressman stuebe just said?look, i've been in trial and i've been in trial when i have weak evidence. can you imagine going to trial with no evidence and expecting that they vote, the senate, being the jury on the impeachment, that they vote when no evidence has been gathered, which is the sole responsibility much the house when it engages in impeachment. it is a dangerous precedent, i agree and the reason for that because there is a gap in the law. the law is imperfect. the constitution does not indicate what should happen. it gives a mandate that the senate has to take up a impeachment. it says it cannot impeach anyone that is a private citizen. we have a gap in the law that gets filled in by the leadership in the senate. so we need wisdom. we need thoughtfulness and consideration for the long term effects of going forward. elizabeth: yeah, going forward. in other words, you can do a snap impeachment, railroad it threw without what congressman stuebe is talking about. let's break it down this way. what if the
