A pivotal witness in the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry described several conversations among top administration officials this summer in which President Trump’s Ukraine quid pro quo was explicitly discussed.
And just like that the foundation for further inquiry leading to impeachment proceedings is cemented into place.
And the turtle retracts into his shell:
Mitch: “Mr. Trump only worked for me a short period of time, and in a limited role. I never met him.”
Just a coffee boy, eh? Just one more straw landing on the camel’s back. Shit gettin’ real, folks.
Chickens taking a limo home to roost.
I look forward to this day:
Putin: “Mr. Trump only worked for me a short period of time, and in a limited role. I never met him.”
I love it, they either continue to support Trump to get the MAGA vote and lose everyone else or they dump Trump and lose most of the MAGA vote and still don’t do well with everyone else. I am assuming that if Trump isn’t running in 2020, the MAGA’s will stay home in large numbers.
I believe this is what is referred to by those in the know as a “smocking crater”.
Twitter will be fun tomorrow as Dear Leader desperately tries to pinch one off on the Golden Throne at 0445.
Please, PLEASE offer Mr. Taylor 24/7 guards.
I’d love to be able to substitute Pence’s name for Trump’s in just a few written appointments, or emails, or documents that Trump will have to review.*
*This might seem mean, but it is actually important that when he is replaced on the ticket, he has already had some time to process it. It is kindness that makes me want to do this.
From Josh’s “Editor’s Blog” post, pointing out that just an announcement of an investigation was the true “deliverable” as far as Trump was concerned:
Having the government, indeed the President of Ukraine himself, make a high profile declaration that the accusations were legitimate, that crimes were probable and that the government was launching an investigation would probably have been more than enough to fatally wound Biden’s candidacy.
And indeed, we see what James Comey’s announcement of the re-opening of a probe into her e-mails did to her candidacy. History repeats itself; things occur first as tragedy, then as farce.
That is an interesting question. Is his base so rabidly in love with him that they won’t vote for anyone else?
These are not what we call high-information voters. I would not be at all surprised if a not-insignificant fraction of Trump’s base does not vote on a regular basis.
I see eagles protecting America…
One of my fav photo shoots!
Next stop: “Sure it’s not what I would do, but it’s not impeachable.”
Don’t think most Americans will see it that way though.
