Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif, may have been the leading House impeachment manager, but it was Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., who got the last word in a comical moment that quickly went viral on social media. Wrapping up the second day of questioning by the Senate jurors, Chief Justice John Roberts called on the House managers to answer the final question of the evening.
"Could you please respond to the answer just given by the president's counsel and provide any other comments the Senate would benefit from hearing before we adjourn for the evening?" Roberts read from the card.
Nadler is then seen jumping out of his chair and rushing

Oh boy, seems there is a little power struggle going on with the House Managers. How will Pelosi handle this? I am sure she will side with her boy, Schiff, but clearly Nadler is upset with Schiff’s hogging of camera time. It has been the Schiff Show that’s for sure. Actually, this little breakaway by Nadler was quite amusing, but I am sure he is going to get an earful from Schiff. Please, we just want it all to end. The hyperbolic lying by the House Managers is unbearable. I hope to watch them go down in defeat in spectacular fashion. It will be the highlight of the entire fiasco. The President’s defense team has been impeccable. So proud of them. The contrast between the two teams has been striking. Professional, organized, prepared and confident vs. lies, innuendo, mind numbing repetition, and juvenile. It definitely has not been a contest between equals.

Nadler got to that podium so fast, I'm surprised we didn't see water and milk cups and papers fly off the evil, lying, traitors' table. And, fatso did a terrible job! Wouldn't a fight between these two be fun to watch? I bet they'd push and shove each other like six-year-olds.

I would bet Nadler was about ready to explode that he had very few opportunities to speak on either day of questions. Schiff took over the lead and never gave it up. A few others, here and there, were allowed to speak, but Nadler only had a few chances and I would bet he was hell bent on giving that last speech. It was a nasty speech. He didn't do the Democrats any good by preaching to the Republicans!

I watched highlights of the hearings and very little of the House managers but I did listen to the President's counsel.
I have to say it was the Adults vs. the children from elementary first grade. It was horrible to watch and SC Roberts is hard to observe too. The entire hearing was a freak show in the well of the Senate. I would have liked to see bottles of liquor in front of everyone then let inebriated drunks perform for the people. That's how stupid this entire hoax was. Thank Adam Schiff for this act of stupidity with help from the mighty hand of Pelosi the senile witch of the north.

Nadler probably thought there was a bag of pork rinds on the podium.

The funny part was Schiff was saying Jerry Jerry Jerry & Nadler ignored him & went on with his speech...I suggest a go fund me page to give them their own network.... they love the camera.

Nadler, who looked like Jabba the Hut from Star Wars, back in the 1990s, had gastric bypass surgery, and lost perhaps 200 pounds.
Since then, he appears to be cheating himself, gaining alot of weight, which requires intentional non stop small portion eating.
His pants are belted up under his armpits, like a character on Saturday Night Live, and he has the mouth of a catfish.
His life expectancy is about the same as RBG, with that humpty dumpty belly.
And he s incapable of speaking without notes or script.

The article is misleading. Nadler can’t “jump” or “rush” anywhere. The best he can do is struggle to his feet and waddle.

Jerry Nadler, who formerly was Jabba, the Hutt, is beyong an evil, lying person. I hesitate to call him a man.

I had wondered if the other House managers had opinions about Schiff's constant mike-grabbing.
