  1.  @rawpoetfilm  I don't know whether she's bitter. She's right on the substance though. I think it's getting silly that each time someone points out how outrageous Trump has behaved, they are immediately accused of being partisan or the president tweets that they are "Never Trumpers". This is just an absurd argument. If the president actually behaves corrupt and as a threat to democracy, this is exactly how it would look. It should come as no surprise to anyone that the more people learn about such a president the more they come to believe he's a problem. His behavior is what makes people horrified about what he's doing to the future of democracy. You can't have it both ways. You can't demand that only his sycophants are credible if they criticize him and scream about that anyone criticizing him is "biased" against him. ... at some point you HAVE to actually try to relate objectively to the substance.

  2.  Raven X  From what I can see, everything points to that Trump has done explicitly the thing the founders put impeachment in the constitution for: He leveraged the power of his office to solicit a bribe from a foreign power for personal gains - specifically to help him in his election. It doesn't matter that he got caught.

  3.  Raven X  Trumps point-man Amb. Gordon Sondland explicitly said that he was following the presidents orders and that the investigations were a condition for a White House meeting.

  4.  Raven X  Claiming that there's "nothing" is just blatantly denying the facts. Trump even committed an impeachable offense directly on camera by asking China to start investigations of Joe Biden. And even if we gave Trump the benefit of doubt wrt. all the bribes and election interference it's impossible to deny the obstruction of Congress ... but I'm sure you will try.

  5.  Raven X  Which part of "Was there a quid-pro-quo? The answer is yes" is it you don't understand?

  6.  @rawpoetfilm  You should grow up and let facts matter instead of this silly search for excuses.
