That’s a bad soundbite for Jordan. But that kind of theatre probably does help Rs. Makes it all look like political squabbling. If you want people to take this seriously enough to create adequate pressure on R senators, Schiff needs to stop making opening statements and Jordan and Nunes need to be ignored enough that the media won’t focus on their cheapening of the process.
Hockey thugs play a role in the game. Nunes and Jordan can be effective in debasing entire process here. But my suspicion is they could take it too far and wind up creating a damning soundbite in which a witness clocks them with a Joseph Welch-like mic drop reply.
