Trump impeachment prosecutor, Adam Schiff, is becoming Exhibit A in president's defense
House managers broke the three golden Rules of Atty, repeatedly, over 2.5 years and three days. I've mentioned #1 and #2 many times. And #3 is "keep it simple, stupid" (KISS)--prosecution or defense storytelling--or else you will confuse the jury.

To confuse the jury IOW is to introduce "reasonable doubt"--definitively not the desired outcome for either advocate.

Well, Lamar Alexander admitted that the House Managers had proven their case. But the Senate was no impartial jury.
