Trump’s Defenders Have No Defense
Wall Street Journal ^ | 11/22/2019 | Peggy Noonan

Posted on 11/22/2019 3:38:22 PM PST by HogsBreath

Look, the case has been made. Almost everything in the impeachment hearings this week fleshed out and backed up the charge that President Trump muscled Ukraine for political gain. The pending question is what precisely the House and its Democratic majority will decide to include in the articles of impeachment, what statutes or standards they will assert the president violated.

So far, at least, pdjt has done nothing requiring defense. The D’s haven’t even produced that jaywalking ticket against him. ( if they ever find anything he’s done wrong, then of course he would have something to defend against). So far, nada nil. Zilch. There’s No beef in the D burger ( not even any fake meat, ha!). Strikeout

The facts say otherwise. POTUS decisions are beyond reproach, by definition.

Using the current definitions of what is impeachable, obozo shoud have been impeached 100 times over.

And democrats, get ready for it. If and when one of your clowns from the clown car gets elected in 2024, the Rs (the few with stones) will come after him or her in the same way.

And that will be the model for the rest of the history of the USA.

Peggy Noonan and Jennifer Rubin have weighed in today. Shouldn’t they both be at the border, distributing Spanish translations of Milton Friedman books, along with the rest of the people on the Wall Street Journal’s payroll?

Dear Peggy Moron;

The ONLY evidence presented proves you a liar.

Sondland: I was never directed by President Trump that aid was tied to the investigations”

Rumor, hearsay and wishful thinking is not fact. That you,and the infantile scum in the DC Swamp, have a hysteric mindless hate for the President is not an impeachable office

The retiring Congressman from Tex who is ON the committee, a personal foe of President Trump who has no reason to defend Trump, said THERE IS NO CASE HERE.

Grow up finally you infantile scum. You lost in 2016. Get over it finally.

The speechwriter who thinks she is a policy setter and analyst. Her sole job was to directly transcribe others ideas, under supervision, into flowery speeches for others to give.

She has gone over to the dark side. But at least all her Upper West Side liberal friends will keep inviting her to parties.

There is a treaty that was signed by Bill Clinton and ratified by the Senate that is the “law of the land” and covers the request for investigations. That treaty says that asking Ukraine for assistance with quote “Investigations”, is legal and further goes on to describe the OBLIGATIONS that both sides have to assist with the requested investigations.

So the request to investigate the Bidens was a legal and legitimate request.

Never Trumper idiot. No one who watched with any objectivity could come this fools conclusion but this column wasn’t written for us. It was aimed at R senators who hold Noonan in very high regard.

Was she ever on the side of light. I think not. She has always been on the dark side but like so many eastern conservatives she talks a good talk at times but she is really a elitist snob who knows better than the common folk. I tuned her out 30 year’s ago.

"... but any Republican who wins the Presidency has
committed an impeachable offense by defeating a Democrat."

That's what it's coming to in the USA.
With the the Media and others driving it brains
of the youth of America.

I tend to hear such varying opinion differences between Constitutional experts and pundits. I was sad when I realized Peggy was just another never-Trumper spouting the GOPe line.

She thinks a bunch of second and third hand information about what JOE BIDEN CONFESSED TO DOING is an impeachable offense??

With every DeMOCRAT and The ENTIRE Fake News Media declaring Trump committed Bribery, why isn’t JOE BIDEN IN JAIL for his CONFESSION to the same act????
