On Monday, President Trump unequivocally denied he threatened to withhold aid from Ukraine in order to pressure the country into investigating former Vice President Joe Biden’s son.
He and his handlers/surrogates have been preparing us for this for the past 3 years by making this level of criminality seem normal. Not just the corrupt act itself, but all the criminal conspiracies (lying to congress etc) that went with it.
THAT’S Trump’s method, strategy and, in fact, ESSENCE.
He ropes people in and then has folks “comfortable” with it not so much because it IS comfortable, but because of a mass self-delusion so as to get through the day, raise families, go to work, love a spouse, cherish loved ones.
Rachel Maddow and people like her will receive Nation-Saving accolades for keeping us sharp…
What does need investigating is how many other members of the administration knew/were complicit in the illegality. From other reporting, it does sound like VP Pence is also a co-conspirator.
That is what I especially like about this particular scandal. At last we caught QTip with dirty fingers. I want this vile sycophant gone as much (and as quickly) as his nasty boss…
