How many will be persuaded by this?

Peggy Noonan wrote speeches for Bush and maybe Reagan.  Now she appears to be joining with the Democrats and advocating for his impeachment.  She represents the Pierre Delecto point of view in the GOP.

We got a one-sided show in the House.  If this makes it to the Senate, and if there's another one-sided show, it might well be close.

But it shouldn't be.

We should know a lot more.  We should know how this story came to be.  Without the whistleblower and without the evidence of how this whistleblower got his story to Congress, we are missing an important part of the story.  We should also know a lot more about the backstory of how the Russian collusion story can be concocted.  Taking all of that into consideration should show that the President did the right thing.

Noonan's point of view matches those of the Establishment.  How Trump gets treated will be a tell to how the trial will go in the Senate.  If the POTUS gets a fair trial, it will do some damage to the Democrats, and they may be wise to take heed of that.  If the Establishment in the Senate dictates a one-sided treatment in the Senate, then all of these people will be on the judgment seat.  They may think they are judging Trump, but they are on trial as well.  Many people aren't buying this point of view of theirs.
