Even after running around New York for a week whining about how he couldn't call any witnesses (which was a bold-faced lie) and declaring that he wouldn't participate in the impeachment and Senate trial process because, in his mind, it was just so unfair, they still gave him an hour-and-a-half when he decided at the last minute that he wanted to do just that: make a statement. Did he try to make a case.......with actual facts this time.......that he never did what he's been accused of? No. Of course not. He just gave one more performance of his insane "Is giving elderly people free rides on the mass transit system a reason to impeach me?" schtick and whined about how he shouldn't be removed from office because his father was a working-class immigrant.
He could have called witnesses. And he could have testified on his own behalf. And it wouldn't have made any difference because he doesn't have any friends in Illinois anymore. And he did make the statement he wanted to make, and it only dug the hole that much deeper.
He's a delusional dirtbag. If he didn't have kids, I'd say I wish he'd wind up bussing tables in a greasy spoon eating establishment for the rest of his life. As it is, I just wish he'd go away.
