They couldn't hide anything even if they wanted.  First, all the information is in the Executive Branch.  Trump could release any documents that.would exonerate him ( as he did with the "perfect" transcript).  He could also schedule a press conference with any witness who could.help him.  If there were any, we'd know by now.

Second, all the hearings have Republicans in the room.  They know what was said so they already have any testimony that might help Trump's case.  They can leak such information at any time (A Congressperson can't be prosecuted for anything they say in the House chamber).

Third, the Senate trial will be 100% in public.  The Democrats will have to show the transcript or call the witnesses in.  They will be cross-examined in public by Trump's lawyers.  Any information that wouod help Trump will come out.

Fourth, the central figure appears to be Giuliani.  He was the message bearer, the one with direct.access to Trump. He could clear it all up by answering the subpoena or releasing his own statement.  But suddenly, he has nothing to say.  What he did say before clamming up didn't help himself or Trump.

I would add a 2A - there will be public hearings in the House as related to articles of impeachment, where all of these witnesses will be brought forward for public testimony. If the House chooses to move articles to the Senate, then the Senate would have a trial, where it could call witnesses as well.[/quote]
