I will sum up the last 3 days of hearings from the Democrats: and I quote, "REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" "WWWAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHJHHHHHHH" end quote. In other words it's the same whining we've been hearing since November 8, 2016 in between sobs of "drumpf is finally going down" and "it was her turn/I'm still with her". pathetic.
