I agree with you, it's not just the money wasted, but IMO, I don't think a trial by career,corrupt politicians, no matter how much they claim to support Trump will allow their crimes to be exposed..Senate should say no trail because of partisan hit job and no facts. get Trump re elected, and continue to fight another 4 yrs for "the ppl"..think about it: it's taken 3 yrs of drip drip pieces of truth to waken a small # ppl, what makes anyone think a speedy trial(11 mos away) before election would undo 100 yrs of corruption?
