I think the televised impeachment inquiry hearings will likely be a hyper-partisan shitshow..........just like with the final Benghazi hearing, the Kavanaugh confirmation, the Michael Cohen testimony, etc.
Elected representatives from both parties (with a few exceptions) are much more focused on showing off and either coddling or eviscerating witnesses to fit their own narratives than they are with getting to the truth objectively, in my opinion.
Anyway, I don't have an expectation that the upcoming televised hearings will play out like the more fact-finding and professional style of the Nixon impeachment hearings, but it would be a very welcome surprise if they do.
