Nobody who had first hand knowledge that would have been able to provide evidence against Trump was prevented from going. Republicans aren't keeping anyone from the stand who has info against Trump.  

Yet you said:

So Republicans could make it so we have the people directly involved testify to what occurred. Republicans could put them on the stand. But they aren't. Why would that be?

First you say, "Republicans could make it so we have the people directly involved testify to what occurred. Republicans could put them on the stand. But they aren't."

But then you come back and say that "prevention doesn't always work"

But remember you just clearly said, "(Trump) is preventing them from testifying. So Republicans could make it so we have the people directly involved testify to what occurred. Republicans could put them on the stand. But they aren't."


In short, we aren't hearing from people directly involved because they are being prevented from speaking, but since prevention doesn't always work we aren't actually being prevented from hearing anyone who wants to testify against Trump.
