Okay Bart, "evidence please." I realize that's what your screaming, off the wall, terminally biased sources of opinion say, but they have no more actual evidence of it than Mueller had in his more than two year coup attempt. This one isn't even gonna taxi fast, much less get off the ground.
Russ,
Trump has admitted in public having requested a foreign leader help to dig dirt on a political rival. This is unconstitutional.
There is no need to prove anything else.
The quid pro quo, another word for corruption, did obviously happen but isn’t needed to impeach Trump.
Even Fox TV couldn’t deny this truth... so this isn’t liberal media plotting a coup, it is the truth being impossible to bend this time because there is a clear constitution and clear facts violating it.
When you use illegal means to attempt to eliminate a political rival, democracy is at risk and I am totally puzzled that you consider Trump’s actions to be aligned with the GOP’s values. I don’t think you would be fine with Trump ordering Biden to be executed by a killer. Well what he attempted to do is just as illegal and as unethical.
If I were you I would think about the relationship between values and the means needed to enforce them. When you compromise too much ethically on the means, you end up becoming the unethical means you use to reach what you believe to be a higher end. So how far are you willing to go to win?
Even if you have given up on ethics, think about what your example means to your grand children.
Cheers,
Bernard
