scuz posted:that grahambling tweet thread proves the gop has pinned everything on the second-hand knowledge thing as if that somehow means that it's all made up this is awesome I hate this tactics because it's absolutely going to force the whistleblower forward. It's likely literally their job to collect and analyze this exact information. GOP is going to out a whistleblower out of spite and stupidity.

It also seems a questionable move (at least in my mind) for Graham to dare Democrats to vote for impeachment. Like...did you think this would make Trump look good? I know that he's far up Trump's rear end and probably thinks that negative coverage is good, but that's bizarre. e: To clarify who I was talking about.

Graham wants a vote simply so he can point at the numbers and scream partisanship.

Old from yesterday but the way Trump referred to the Ukraine call as a "perfect call" has me thinking he views these things as like some interaction that can be graded like one of those interactions in an RPG like Fire Emblem. "Nailed It! Full Points! The Best Topics! Perfect Tea Time! Confidant Rank Up! Had Zelensky giving me the googly eyes at the end, Sparkles all around em'! Even offered em' a gift at the end but he was already satisfied! Pure Magic!" Obviously it's because he doesn't understand descriptive language and context at all and has to exaggerate the poo poo out of everything to try to turn it into some self-aggrandizing personal accomplishment but still funny.

Man, listening to these republican call-ins makes it clear that anyone on that side of the fence bought the R grandstanding hook line and sinker. Anything, no matter how far a stretch, to shelter from reality.

Yep, and he probably believes the rhetoric that an impeachment would "look bad for Democrats" or whatever. Dapper_Swindler posted:its because he doesn't care and is an opertunistic whore. if trump falls some how, he will stab trump on the way out and pretend he was always loyal to america or some poo poo. This too. I think he and several of the others will continue to support Donny right up until the moment they don't, and then pretend that they were always the opposition.

On a bright note, the DNI basically confirmed that the WH waived privilege on the Ukraine call so it's fair game for a whole lot of other things. Theoretically they could subpoena/interview anyone who listened in on the call without issue..

F_Shit_Fitzgerald posted:There was at least one person in the thread saying that if, by this time, Republicans were still mum about the complaint, it was a sign that things were bad for them. It's certainly a good sign. Their initial shambolic attempts to distribute talking points backfired on them immediately when they distributed them openly, so they're still scrambling to come up with new ones. But I think it was also pointed out that this is still the opening phase of this latest scandal, and it often takes a few days for the Republicans to organize themselves in their normal lock-step manner, so it's really Monday that should be seen as the defining day. If they're still scrambling to defend Dirty Donald's illegal use of military aid as a slush fund to blackmail foreign governments and discredit his political rivals, and the incompetent cover-up of the same, then American public perception of his actions as being blatantly corrupt will begin settling into place.

It seems the core component of succeeding at crimes for multiple decades is to have an obscene amount of money or lock some bank into a loan where they keep giving you other loans because you are too big to fail, i.e. the Trump Special.
