Exactly. They’re saying Pelosi has no evidence. She’s got plenty for a trial. People have been tried with less evidence.
Back to my old stand-by: Conservatism is a religion.
Any fact which does not comport with a religion must be disregarded to protect the religion.
Their faith tells them their religious leaders (Republican politicians) are preaching the truth. Therefore the 27% crasification factor which is hard-core conservative religious believers will never accept the facts. (Nixon had supporters who were convinced he was railroaded after he resigned.)
They are lost: no one can reason someone out of a religion they reasoned themselves into (or were indoctrinated into); they must do it themselves.
That giant gap of fence-sitters who seem to be “above politics” or “both sides are the same” are the ones who can be convinced with evidence.
