Because the house could have gone to the courts.

It's kind of like the streets. Just because the cops don't like going to court does not mean they can administer their own justice.
This is such a strange argument. The House decided there was enough evidence to indict the president. It doesn’t make much sense for the Senate to stick their fingers in their ears and pretend like there isn’t more evidence available. If the senate wants to judge the truth they should gather all available facts and evidence. To do otherwise is to facilitate a cover up regardless of this flimsy excuse.

If the Dems had enough evidence to impeach why do they need more evidence? Surely the evidence presented is enough to remove the president?

I believe there is enough evidence to remove him. The majority of Americans agree with that assessment. Further evidence would move that number farther towards the remove column. More evidence is unearthed daily, not examining it has no justifiable reason.

Evidence of what crime exactly? A real crime?

He used taxpayer money to pressure a foreign government to interfere in our election. I don’t care if that’s specifically listed anywhere in US criminal code, it’s a crime.
It's neither listed in the U.S. criminal code nor in the articles of impeachment. So tell me again what crime he's on trial for? By the way the GAO found seven instances that the Obama administration broke the law. Should Obama have been impeached?

Did Obama do it to influence an election? Why can’t Trump try and win fair and square? He’s a loser, that’s why.

Trump did nothing but ask the Ukrainian president to look into Biden's corruption. And when did impeachment have to be solely about elections anyways? A crime is a crime. And I didn't say Obama committed a crime, I said his administration broke the law.

That is a very weak argument. It’s lawyer talk and if republicans use it on the campaign trail, they’ll get slaughtered for it.
