Debunking GOP talking points on impeachment using their own words

[DesertRat]

GOP Point 1: Trump was fighting corruption. He was not focused on Biden.
Fact: on Oct 3rd, Trump was asked what he wanted the Ukraine President to do. He said investigate Biden. Not fight corruption.

GOP Point 2: Ukraine meddled in our election.
Fact: on Dec 9th, Trump’s handpicked FBI Director says the US has no information that indicates that Ukraine interfered with the 2016 presidential election.

GOP Point 3: There was no quid pro quo.
Fact: on Oct 17th, from the White House podium, Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney told the world there was in fact a quid pro quo.

GOP Point 4: He didn’t commit a crime so you can’t impeach him.
Fact: As Lindsey Graham pointed out in 1998, this is not the standard for impeachment

GOP Point 5: It’s OK because he’s President and the law doesn’t apply to him.
Fact: As Marco Rubio pointed out in 2012, in this country no one is above the law.

GOP Point 6: Even if all of this is true, it is not impeachable.
Fact: As Mike Pence pointed out in 2008, this is the exact standard for impeachment.

Doug Gordon is spot-on!

No matter what the Guardians Of Putin say,
Trump betrayed the Constitution.

4. Wonder if the Senate will call the cabal to answer questions?

Turley and these confused deplorables are chewing off their own tails when they back Turley's complaint about "fast track" and not using the third branch to weigh in on subpoenas.

I honestly think ameriKKKa is too dumb and poisoned to follow the logic of all of this. "Nation of morons."
