...and a leader who can think.russia has universal healthcare.
here is the oracle of "smelly walmart people" preparing the flock for impeachment hearings:
I’m guessing the volume level, which is uncomfortably high at the moment, on the Fox News/ GOP denunciation machine is directly proportional to the sheer volume of incriminating evidence and testimony against The Anus?Daniel Goldman, the Democrats’s lead impeachment hearing lawyer, is doing a masterful job of questioning Ambassador Bill Taylor and State Department official George Kent. His background in prosecuting mob bosses is perfectly suited to this process.
Now, whether any Republicans, or the US public at large, is actually listening is, of course, another question.
So I turn on my radio, and I hear a repub saying exactly the four things listed above They figure to gaslight America; if Americans hear that list repeated six or seven times, many will just take it on as true.The GOP defense against Trump’s impeachment has been formalized, and distilled down to four points:
https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/12/politics/house-republicans-trump-memo-impeachment-defense/index.html
- The July 25 call summary "shows no conditionality or evidence of pressure."
- Ukrainian "President (Volodymyr) Zelensky and President Trump have both said there was no pressure on the call."
- "The Ukrainian government was not aware of the hold on U.S. assistance" during the July 25 call.
- The security assistance hold was lifted on September 11.
Here is an excellent debunking of this pathetic attempt at a defense, point by point.

This Ukraine fiasco meets all the requirements for an impeachment. If it doesn't happen the 'checks and balances' stopping a POTUS becoming a dictator are not working.
USA becomes more like Putin's Russia every day.
Yes but even in these polarized times people are all unique individuals. Some fit your image of know- nothing Trump cultists, some differ some in one dimension or another, some differ more. There are lots of suburban areas that went for Trump in 2017, but Democrats are winning now. There is still a middle, including more educated people who are happy neither with Trump or with the Know-nothings. Enough votes to win are there if the Democrats can get them.Trump supporters don’t care about the constitution or legality or abuse of office leading to quid pro quo deals or withholding aid, even if it’s military... especially if it’s military. Just build that wall. Ppl will just say he’s doing a great job getting more value from his great aid deals than Obama. The cruelty is the point. There are not enough trump supporters who are bothered enough to sway.
THE mistake is trying to appeal to people who just don’t care about such things.
Hope you are wrong. Blodbaths end with ruthless people in power, in general.
Since we're already there, we can skip the bloodbath then.
