The US Senate rejected democratic efforts to protect the US President in the case.

Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell did not support the plan to speed up the hearing after facing pressure from fellow Republicans.

This is no more than covering up, according to democrats.

The Senate rejected three Democratic bids with the voting of 53-47 to get evidence in the trial

Senators blocked a motion to Subpoena White House Files from Democratic leader Chuck Schumer.

They also demanded an order of records and documents from the White House Budget Office and State department.

The House Democrat Adam Schiff said in a statement that most Americans do not think there will be a fair trial.

He said, “They don’t believe the Senate will be impartial,” “They believe the result is pre-cooked.”
