What a day. Trump opines: “You people with this phony Emoluments Clause” because apparently there’s a US Constitution.
So much diversionary activity as Trump repeats campaign lies during his “Cabinet meeting” press opportunity. That event was meant to offset the failed Mulvaney press briefing of last week and the even more disastrous TV appearances.
Gaslighting Nation continues today with another version of the “Russian asset” meme as Trump pointed toward Tulsi Gabbard in hopes that Hillary Clinton becomes the real criminal.
Just remember that some criminal investigations are continuing, despite all the distractions, including a claim by Jacob Wohl that Ted Cruz is a “swinger”.
House Democrats are zeroing in on a framework for their impeachment case against Trump that will center on a simple "abuse of power" narrative involving Trump's actions regarding Ukraine, according to multiple people familiar with the deliberations.https://t.co/UmLM3FKLId
Trump, in the middle of a monologue about how George Washington was also a businessman while in office, cast baseless aspersions on Obama's post-presidency deal with Netflix. He then mocked the "phony Emoluments Clause," which is in the actual Constitution.
1. Trump solicited a bribe from Ukraine 2. The favor he sought, “though,” was itself criminal: Foreign election help 3. By withholding aid till getting that favor, he helped our adversary: Putin 4. Putin helped elect T 5. T also sought Ukraine’s help to cover up #4
Mulvaney is basically left with few allies at a top level right now. So he went out to the briefing room at a moment when he needed to show POTUS he could do the job. And it didn't go well.
Tulsi Gabbard say that she doesn’t control the Russian bots that support her, but she did control the hiring of Chris Cooper, the smear campaigner who was paid by Natalia Veselnitskaya and her Russian backed sponsors to smear me and try to repeal the Magnitsky Act in DC https://t.co/pxS1eBmln8
We need to be clearer that some GOP lawmakers are fully behind Trump because they *affirmatively support* his act of corruptly pressuring Ukraine to investigate (i.e., smear) Biden.
Some have argued Trump's removal won't be possible without a huge popular mobilization, because our institutions are weaker than in Nixon's day.
Great list of top movie quotes. But it’s SERIOUSLY lacking in quotes from The Princess Bride and Fletch. Nevertheless, I’m particularly fond of #61, from the immortal Tony Montana: “Say ‘hello’ to my little friend!” https://t.co/jAYy9IhvVq
