On Tuesday's edition of The Chad Hasty Show, Republican strategist Matt Mackowiak joined the program to discuss the first week of Joe Biden's presidency.

Mackowiak and Hasty discussed President Biden's call for unity and his contrasting actions during the first few days, as well as the second impeachment of former President Donald Trump, the U. S. Senate and the future of the filibuster, the minimum wage debate, and more.

Mackowiak said, while speaking about the impeachment process and the likelihood of Trump actually being convicted in the Senate:

They're nowhere near seventeen Republican votes to convict, and so it's basically a waste of floor time. They want to take up three or four weeks of Biden's first hundred days on something that's pointless, with [former President Trump] not even in office anymore? It's silly. I'm actually surprised Pelosi transmitted the articles at all.
