Inappropriate? Really?

Bribery is specifically mentioned in the Constitution one of the reasons for impeachment.

The bottom line is:
  • Trump lacks finesse when he speaks so half of what he says comes off as insulting whether he means it or not. He is his own worse enemy.
  • Something needs to be done so that there can not be another Hunter Biden situation because that whole thing just reeks of corruption despite all the media claiming differently.
  • Some of these career folks, including the LTC, could use a refresher on who sets foreign policy.
  • LTC Vindman is the original gossiper to the “whistleblower” and everyone knows who he is, no matter how they are pretending they don’t.
  • The president and buddies were up to no good and yes, were probably inappropriate - but it is not enough to justify this impeachment.
  • Adam Schiff, some members of his staff, and the “whistleblower” were up to no good.
  • It sucks they are doing this 11 months before the election.
  • I was the only person I personally know who has been paying much attention and now even I am bored to death.
I agree with all of this. Well said.

Really, now? But I'm sure Trump was justified in attacking a Lieutenant Colonel via Twitter because, well, he's Trump, and as long as he does it, it's OK. Right? Just like it was OK for him to attack Yovanovitch on Twitter. That's what Trump does. He's "unorthodox," so any behavior is acceptable. What say you, Trump supporters? It's OK, right? Lieutenant Col. Vindman deserved it, I'm sure. Or are you going with the "But Democrats did XYZ" excuse? Or are you just going to ignore my question entirely?

How do Republicans support this?

How do they sleep at night?

I can't wait for the sea of tears after Gossip girl is stripped of his rank and command and finally demoted with a dishonorable discharge. An arrest and a lengthy prison sentence would be the cherry on top.

This is best response you can come up with?

Ask for better material.

No, the answer is "Trump just doesn't know any better." Therefore, he's given a pass for everything, no matter how nefarious his motive. According to Trump supporters, he's not a "professional politician" so therefore his lack of ethics, even his lack of awareness there is such a thing, his lack of moral compass, his inability to distinguish right from wrong, his ability to lie nonstop, his nonstop bullying, name-calling, and character assassination - all of that is excusable and for which he has no culpability or accountability because "he just doesn't know any better."

In reality, what they are saying is Trump is unqualified and incompetent - and therefore, because, by his nature, he is unqualified and incompetent, he is not expected to comport himself with the dignity, integrity and professionalism befitting his office because he is ignorant of the meaning of those qualities.

You know the Republicans had a bad day when their best witness said Joe Biden is a good man who isn't corrupt in the slightest.
