I am not certain you understand the process, and I am fairly perplexed you still do not understand what will occur.
Surely you are more intelligent than that. Surely this is just a ploy.

What you fail to understand is the time to present witnesses and cross examination comes after a house vote to open impeachment proceedings.

Is the "process" to impeach a sitting President supposed to be held behind closed doors and in secret?  Is the "process" supposed to be to "investigate" without the defense able to cross-examine and/or call their own witnesses?

This is nothing more than a political witch-hunt intended to drag out as long as possible.  Nothing more.
