BILA: So take out how you feel about impeachment or not. Bottom line is everyone voting already knew how they were going to vote before they heard any of this. And the truth is that people out there in the country are not focused on an impeachment trial. In their minds they're how am I going to put food on the table for my families, what's going on with my kid at school, that is their focus. Donald Trump is no longer in office. The focus right now for most is on the Biden administration and what that administration is going to do to help them or not help them. And frankly, I think that's where it should be.

HEGSETH: It's amazing, though, because the Biden administration has enabled this. I mean, they had a chance to call out and say hey, we want to move past this, we want to focus on our agenda but instead we've seen this show trial, which you point out, Jed, had a preordained outcome. We know exactly where this was going. And the House managers went on for a couple of days. The president's attorneys ultimately only needed three and a half hours yesterday to point out that this is common political language, we have freedom of speech, there were a lot of other dynamics here. It may make for some good television on cable news, but people aren't focused there.

CAIN: That's the point I wanted to highlight. If you were really in a genuine pursuit of truth, you would go ahead and call witnesses this week, whether or not the outcome was predetermined. It's trial by video, trial by TV. That's what all this is about.
