Yup. I think that with the economy where it's at, if he just wasn't a national embarrassment every single day, his approval numbers would be much different.

Trump attacks ambassador as she testifies in impeachment hearing

President Donald Trump on Friday lashed out at former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch, as she testified in a public impeachment hearing in the House that his words about her in a phone call with the Ukraine president “sounded like a threat. Everywhere Marie Yovanovitch went turned bad,” Trump claimed in a two-part tweet. “She started off in Somalia, how did that go? Then fast forward to Ukraine, where the new Ukrainian President spoke unfavorably about her in my second phone call with him. It is a U.S. President’s absolute right to appoint ambassadors,” the president wrote.

--

Schiff allowed Yovanovitch to respond to the president’s tweets during the hearing Friday, which I thought was pretty awesome.

Also, I just want to say that Yovanovitch is doing a wonderful job with her testimony today. Yovanovitch's professionalism, sincerity, deep knowledge of Ukraine, and her calm and logical demeanor is such a big contrast with the s*** show that is this administration.

Trump hating spin is alive and well. Good thing too, since that's all they have.

The fact is, everything Trump said in that tweet is true. Is the truth intimidating?

If this doesn't bolster an article of impeachment, nothing will.

What I find very scary is (too?) many demorats thinking that since anyone would make a better POTUS than Trump then why not go very far left and run Warren (or even Sanders). IMHO, that would result in Trump (gone wild?) getting another term with no concern whatsoever about being re-elected.

Really? Everywhere she went turned bad? You believe that's a true assessment?
It's complete and utter bull**** and anyone with any degree of impartiality knows that. How on God's green earth does a rational person blame Somalia on the US ambassador?
