It's not about proving their case, or even making a real case for new witnesses and subpoenas; it's not even about convincing "Gettable" Republican senators to vote their way.
You can tell by the way the "Prosecutors" keep showing their contempt for those Republicans, from Jerry Nadler's charge the first night that they're basically traitors if they don't vote for more witnesses to Adam Schiff's blaring Friday of the hearsay report that the White House is directly threatening GOP senators - a claim clearly proven false by those same senators' live reactions of outrage.
It's no wonder that senators from both parties have struggled to stay awake.
It's as if the House members have been nursing jealous resentment of a senator's right to filibuster, and are determined to do as much of it as they can while they're visiting the Senate floor.
Sadly, you can expect Democratic senators to play along when they get to ask questions, by offering the managers more opportunities to say the same things yet again.
It lets the Democrats show their voters and donors that the politicians hate Trump as much as they do.
The Senate's best answer is to vote as soon as possible to dismiss the House's case, so Congress can get back to doing the people's business.
