SO, MR. DERSHOWITZ TRIED TO EMBELLISH HIS LEGAL CREATION AND DISTINGUISH AMONG THOSE ABUSES OF POWER WHICH WOULD BE IMPEACHABLE FROM THOSE WHICH WOULDN'T, ABUSES OF POWER THAT WOULD HELP THE PRESIDENT GET REELECTED WERE PERMISSIBLE AND THEREFORE UNIMPEACHABLE AND ONLY THOSE FOR PECUNIARY GAINS WERE BEYOND THE PALE.UNDER THIS THEORY, AS LONG AS THE PRESIDENT BELIEVES HIS REELECTION WAS IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST, HE COULD DO ANYTHING AND NO QUID PRO QUO WAS TOO CORRUPT. NO DAMAGE TO HER NATIONAL SECURITY, TOO GREAT, THIS WAS SUCH AN EXTREME VIEW THAT EVEN THE PRESIDENT'S OTHER LAWYERS HAD TO RUN AWAY FROM IT. WHAT ARE WE LEFT WITH? THE HOUSE HAS PROVEN THE PRESIDENTS GUILT. HE TRIED TO COERCE AN ALLY INTO HELPING HIM CHEAT BY SMEARING HIS OPPONENT. HE BETRAYED OUR NATIONAL SECURITY IN ORDER TO DO IT. WENDY WITHHELD MILITARY AID TO OUR ALLY AND VIOLATED THE LAW TO DO SO, HE COVERED IT UP AND COVERS IT UP STILL. HE IS CONTINUING OBSTRUCTION IS A THREAT TO HER OVERSIGHT AND VESTED POWERS OF THE HOUSE AND SENATE AND IF LEFT UNADDRESSED WILL PERMANENTLY AND DANGEROUSLY ALTER THE BALANCE OF POWER. THESE UNDENIABLE FACTS REQUIRE THE PRESIDENT TO RETREAT TO HIS FINAL DEFENSE. HE IS GUILTY AS SIN BUT CAN'T WE JUST LET THE VOTERS DECIDE AND HE IS GUILTY AS SIN BUT WHY NOT LET THE VOTERS CLEAN UP THIS MESS? HERE TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION WE MUST LOOK AT THE HISTORY OF THIS PRESIDENCY AND TO THE CHARACTER OF THIS PRESIDENT OR LACK OF CHARACTER AND ASK CAN WE BE CONFIDENT THAT HE WILL NOT CONTINUE TO TRY TO CHEAT IN THAT VERY ELECTION?

We're now seeing in real time the unfolding of Schiff's warning for the re-election strategy of Donald Trump: manufacture a lie to investigate imaginary crimes in the hopes of having some kind of show trial between now and election day. iOW, the exact kind of abuse of power every dictator uses (short of summary arrests or assassination) to stay in power. Trump and Barr are tag-teaming the demolition of the upcoming election at the national level while red state governors and legislatures will do the dirty work at the "street" level of voting.

Another hapless liberal conned by a psychopathic liar.

You'll be one of the first Trump will put in camps!

Better go hide under your bed or call your mommy.:lol:

Might as well just declare yourself a traitor to and sworn enemy of the United States with that kind of comment. But thanks for agreeing that Your Dear Dirtbag is a fascist dictator in the making.

It never ceases to amaze me how, with more and more evidence coming out every day that it was Democrats working to obstruct the Trump presidency, and more and more evidence of how baseless their charges against Trump were, that they STILL see themselves as the victims in all this.

Its par for the course anymore.

They embraced that conspiracy theory for 3 years based on lies and speculation, but disregard the truth and all of the documents and testimony proving it.

What else besides TDS can explain so many people reaching such illogical conclusions?

While Schiff is an extremely smart man, accurately predicting what Trump does based on what he always does doesn’t exactly make Schiff a prophet.

That's because you never listen to anything but what you want to hear: far-right infotainment/propaganda, depending on the source, and all of it instructing you to believe every single thing a Democrat ever does is designed specifically to victimize your political tribe.

You've chosen to isolate yourself in a false reality. Of course it "amazes" you that the people your false reality condemns don't see what you see. The kind of person who is willing and actually able to isolate themselves in a false reality is the kind of person who could never conceive of things being other than what they believe they are.

A person who suffers a literal delusion cannot think themselves out of it.

But a person who chooses to embrace an illusion has necessarily chosen not to do the things that would allow them to see the delusion for what it is. You're still able to see your way out of this false image of "Democrats" and "the left". You just chose in advance not to let yourself.






After all..... that would mean that you are personally at fault, completely so, for all of those things you justified with one of your "LOOK AT WHAT YOU MADE ME DO (liberals)!" screeds.
 
That's not a sentence.

For you. For me its a complete thought conveying meaning to its intended audience, which was not you. Whether or not you understand, or care to, :shrug:.
 
Apple’s autocomplete function would have created something more coherent.

"Siri, please give me directions to Lowe's."

SIRI: <plays "Get Low">
 
Not at all surprising.

Your quote machine is broke. Let me fix it for you.

So your "intended audience" speaks gibberish. Okay.

What planet do you live on? Obviously you didn’t read the testimony of the traitors given under Oath. Are you telling me your traitor buddies were lying to Mueller? Your buddies exonerated Trump.

Yes Trump is following a playbook as old as dictators and tyrants themselves. His attempts to break down out institutions and the separation of powers is unique for us though. We have never had a President so bent on destroying what our founders so wisely devised in his quest for absolute power.

Basles???

He was impeached, colluded with a hostile foreiign government to fix an amo election in his favor, blackmailed an ally in an attempt to fix another one, and has many pending charges when he leaves office (most likely in cuffs).

But he is the victim...

It’s a rarity to see someone actually praise Adam Schiff. Any praise can only come from the ultra partisans that are clueless of how destructive that man has been to our republic and our system of governing. From his closed off basement hearings to leaking intelligence committee meetings content during breaks he has been the worst steward of our constitution in my lifetime.

I'll gladly march into one of Trump's camps if Mexico paid for the walls.

Does the Cult of Dirtbag send you this BS to repeat or is it your own, um, "creation."

Crap straight from the bowels of the Cult of Dirtbag, obvie. Your duty is to spread as far and wide as possible, right?
