OP
When a repug ends at the timer they say "Can he answer the question" and Nadler allows it.

It's the normal House procedure for hearings, but I agree that it sucks.

I think someone else should ask it again.

(115,858 posts)2. We don't know what he would have said. It's more likely that
he would have said something neutral, or that it was outside the scope of the report. Nadler cut him off because he's sticking strictly to the 5-minute time limit and applying it equally to everyone, just as he should.
Added: Swalwell asked it and he did as I expected - he said "it's a different case."

I wonder why the Dem didn't ask?

Republican attacks are making him angry.

It prevents thorough questioning while encouraging grandstanding.
