ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム動画 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「The House Democrats prosecuting former President Donald Trump rested their case on Thursday, branding him a clear and present danger to the United States’ democracy who could sow new violence like the deadly assault on the Capitol last month if he is not barred from holding office again. Calling on senators to render “impartial justice” and embrace the “common sense” of the country’s founders, the nine impeachment managers closed their case by laying out the grave damage the Jan. 6 riot had caused not just to lawmakers or police officers at the Capitol but to the democratic system and America’s standing around the world. None of it, they argued, would have happened without Trump. “If you don’t find this a high crime and misdemeanor today, you have set a new terrible standard for presidential misconduct in the United States of America,” said Representative Jamie Raskin of Maryland, the lead manager. A day after delivering the Senate a harrowing account of the deadly violence, replete with chilling, previously unseen security footage, the prosecutors returned for the trial’s third day with new video clips, court documents and interviews in which the rioters defended their actions by citing Trump’s directives and desires. “I’m not afraid of Donald Trump running again in four years,” said Representative Ted Lieu of California. “I’m afraid he’s going to run again and lose, because he can do this again.” Tap the link in our bio for complete coverage of the impeachment hearing.」2月12日 10時20分
