Sen. Van Hollen: There Is No Vindication in a Fraudulent Trial, They Want to Rig the Process

‘If they don’t allow the truth to come out, I think the public will see right through that’

EXCERPT:

VAN HOLLEN: "Well, Jim, at the end of the day, the American people are watching closely to see if this is going to be a fair trial. CNN’s own polling shows that just about 70% of the American public agrees that a fair trial requires witnesses and documents. So if Mitch McConnell and the Republicans just steamroll this through, if they rig the process, it will clearly be a fraud on the Constitution of the United States. And we will have to make it very clear. There is no vindication in a fraudulent trial. The president may claim to be exonerated, but if they rig the process, if they don’t allow the truth to come out, I think the public will see right through that."
