Schiff likely things he's an important guy, someone who could go places ... now.
He's been in congress for 20 years, chair of the intelligence committee and was lead prosecutor in two previous senate impeachment trials for federal judges.
It was probably a very easy decision for Pelosi to tap him to lead the house managers.
I did not see competence in his words or actions, or any strategy ... at all. It was all over in the "definitely weird" category. No clue why or what that means.
But I've seen a lot of comments as the guy's obvious incompetence.
try to look at it from both sides. it seems like you can only say bad things about the party you oppose and its usually more insulting there intelligence than anything substance.
I lived in Schiffs district for 5 years voted against him both times i could, had a Rogan sign on my garage the last year that district was red. hes done some messed up things like voted for iraq, dragged his feet on benghazi. but his court room game is on point. he proved his case very well, i really don't think there is a single senator that doubts trump did exactly what hes been accused of, and there probably were some before. more importantly i think he convinced a lot of americans also that this is not the same republican party that they may have thought it was. hes going to force each senator to stand up to the president and condemn what he did or the country will know they think its ok for the president to abuse his power and then lie about it. imagine if a democrat president does that some day.
