But if you say them in a sardonic tone of voice then everyone understands how laughable it is to even imagine such things could be.

I see where heās going. He couldnāt remember everything when Pompeo denied his access to his notes, e-mails etc. Iāll take it as a finger pointing defense as long as itās finally truthfulā¦

Because most Americans under 40 donāt watch the news, local or national, not having cable or bother with antennas and spending most of their āTVā time playing video games, engaging in social media or watching streaming shows. The nature of todayās media, being so diffuse, and the media habits of todayās younger people, means that most just arenāt paying attention and literally donāt know whatās going on beyond that thereās impeachment going on.
I bet that 7 or 8 people out of 10 under the age of 40 canāt name more than 2 or 3 people on either side in all this, beyond Trump, Rudy and Pelosi. We have become a nation of uninformed, disengaged political imbeciles and itās mostly the fault of new media, and the he said/she said way that most non-partisans view politics. And Dems arenāt doing a good job of reaching out IMO, still relying mostly on old media and traditional process, e.g. news conferences, hearings and press statements.
We need our own, 21st century media infrastructure, to compete with the GOPās.
Well the freeps seem to be getting it and they are 100% trumpsters

Whatever tone Nunes used. Iām not watching, got to get ready and go out, but Iām monitoring it all seismically via Twitter.

That will depend on the headlines, purely and simply. If the press coverage indicates Trump Demanded Quid Pro Quo, itās the end. If it gets lost in the shuffle, well then there will be a lot more work to do.

Even that wouldnāt be enough as most non-partisans, i.e. those whose views are not fixed, arenāt following closely if at all and donāt even know what quid pro quo means. Weāre dealing with infantiles and imbeciles, grown people who spend all their free time texting and sexting and instagramming each other, playing video games, watching Housewives and fixer upper shows, and binging shows. Theyāre just not into politics, and something stronger than damning headlines is needed. Itās like weāve fallen into a collective stupor, at least among non-partisans. Itās a recipe for disaster, the tuning out.
Do you live in a red state, I am not seeing that here in Virginia
Well, if it moves some non-Trumpie Repubs against him, who knows. But I donāt see it moving many non-partisans, who are nearly completely disengaged.
Queens, NYC. Literally no oneās talking about this, when Iām in public. Itās like itās not happening.
My daughter in Brooklyn doesnāt talk about it either, but I figured that it was because just living in NYC on a daily basis takes up most of her energy.
That is why Iām saying in the headlines. I know they donāt follow things in depth. And I didnāt intend to write the headlines so Iām not recommending that itās my wording that needs to be used.
I, in fact, doubt that quid pro quo would be in any headlines. What I hope to see and think we need to see is simply that Sondland is blowing the Republican cover story and throwing their ridiculous fig leaf in the dust.
Sondlandās like a 9 year old who had never spoken before whose first words are a recitation of The Gettysburg Address.
