DS> It was not a "footnote" it was and is a law. And Trump violated it.
What you're missing is that GAO was from a legislative body, which does not
have the same teeth; nor the authority against the executive branch, therefore
it might as well be nothing more then footnote, and dim memory.
DS> True, the Democrats did not count on the President releasing evidence
DS> that proves he committed a crime -- but that is exactly what he did.
Look- you need to understand what the articles of impeachment say.
Neither of them are a crime that is punishable or will result w/ removal of the
President.
These articles are laughable...
Abuse of Power
Obstruction of Congress
Neither will stick, due to the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution.
What this is really about is a policy difference.
(both of these so called articles are said to exist because what the Democrats
believe took place on the phone call.) if that is true then why is it that
other Democrats have indicated that impeachment proceedings began days after
Donald J. Trump was elected. with the likes of Rashida Tlaib on Trump:
'Impeach the motherf---er' on 01/04/2019 creating a constitutional crisis
where there is none.
DS> Policy -- The Democrats want to protect the USA national security by
DS> aiding Ukraine in its war with Russia. Trump wants to allow Russia to
DS> do whatever it wants, anywhere.
President Trump sent the Ukrainians defensive weapons, where Obama sent them
blankets and pillows.
Where was the concern with the Obama administration with the protection of
Ukraine then, it did not exist.
