White House counselor Kellyanne Conway put a new spin on her “no quid pro quo” defense by comparing the ongoing impeachment testimonies to … a high school prom?
FFS, stop saying “quid pro quo.” The term quid pro quo is a morally neutral term that can apply, alike to a lawful exchange of valuta, a licit favor granted in expectation of a licit favor in the future, as well as bribery and extortion.
I agree. I think investigations in general should rely on a single oracular witness, preferably one appointed by the president. Justice is way too inefficient and unreliable.
That thing about how cheerleaders are asked to the prom is conjecture on both counts by Conway. First the cheerleader count, second hand information. Second being asked to the prom, not a chance unless she would do for to the quarterback what she is doing to our country.
Yes, the President would describe it as perfect and benign, the way he describes the one from July 25th
Well dUH… of course the April call was benign… it was simply about congratulating Zelensky on his win. The July Call was made to further the extortion and bribery being promoted by tRump. The transcript of that call speaks for itself. WHY on earth the Media lets tRump/GOP get away with this bullshit is beyond me.
KAC needs to ask George for the proper legal interpretation of this set of crimes and resultant impeachment. He knows DJT needs to be booted, as per the Constitution.
(They were both, of course, convinced that Bill Clinton needed to be removed from office this way and worked diligently to make that happen with their famous FAX machine for the Vast Rightwing Conspiracy.)
Then why didn’t they release it last week when Trump said he’d release it the next day… Which then became Tuesday (today)… Now by the end of the week…
At first I thought that it should be benign as well. But it does seem that it’s likely got something of interest in it, otherwise they wouldn’t have to keep kicking the can down the road.
