House Democrats are fond of saying there is no dispute about the facts in the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump. They are right, in this sense: Republicans are dealing in facts, and Democrats in fantasy.
After two marathon question-and-answer sessions in the Senate on Wednesday and Thursday, it became clear that the Democrats’ case against President Trump is essentially based on five misquotes.
They are as follows:
1. Ukraine call misquotes. The investigation of the president began with a “whistleblower” complaint that claimed “the President of the United States is using the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign country in the 2020 U.S. election.” The complaint was inaccurate, but the “whistleblower,” at least, admitted he had not heard the call first-hand. After Trump released the transcript, Democrats were deflated, but House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) had an answer: he just made up a better version, faking a mob movie dialogue as he opened the first public hearings in the impeachment inquiry.
2. Fake Trump quote. After a series of inaccurate leaks from closed-door meetings in Schiff’s “basement,” Democrats finally voted to authorize the inquiry and hold public hearings. Once the Intelligence Committee was done, the proceedings moved to the Judiciary Committee, where Democrats presented a misquote of the president, complete with deceptively-edited video, claiming “I can do whatever I want” under Article II of the Constitution. Trump was referring to his right to fire executive officials, not his power in general. But the misquote became central to Democrats’ argument that Trump risked becoming a “dictator” if not removed.

I would like to see a strong, viable, patriotic Democrat Party. There are Democrats out there who are just like that- they’re called “Democrats for Trump”.
The 'rats are about power and control. The democratic socialists of today would've been first in line to sign up with the National Socialists party back in 1930s Germany... Same basic ideas and ideals regarding enforced conformity, just repackaged for the new era.

They did back then too. It’s a little bit of American history that most hardly know about or want to forget. Like the Race Riots/Wars and the Northern Migration in America. If American history was really taught in American more Trumps would be elected and demonrats would never be elected again.
Fake, fake, fake, fake and fake.
Think I’ll turn in for the night.
I’m tiring of reading of Ukraine misquitoes.
