Even if a quid pro quo was needed to establish abuse of presidential foreign affairs and military power for personal political purposes — and it isn’t — the transcript DOES show both the QUID and the QUO, and they are damningly linked by the president’s use of the word “THOUGH.” — PolitiTweet.org

.@RepAdamSchiff has summed up better than anyone else the reasons for moving forward with this impeachment inquiry without waiting for the transcript or the whistleblower’s complaint: what we already know demands moving toward Trump’s impeachment. https://t.co/rfAfjudYbU — PolitiTweet.org

”The Ukraine issue is about compromising U.S. national security — and direct pledges to allies — for the president’s personal political gain.” Exactly. Here’s a powerful look from the battlefield: https://t.co/1lACr8s5Gy — PolitiTweet.org

John Yoo’s tortured logic concedes that “high crimes and misdemeanors” include using foreign affairs powers for personal political gain but denies that offering $400 million in aid to Ukraine for damaging information about Biden would warrant impeachment: https://t.co/yxcw5cab5I — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s ever-shifting story is a study in slow-mo self-immolation. Sad to watch. Although I must admit a tiny bit of, well, good old schadenfreude https://t.co/sb6CgVdLLD — PolitiTweet.org

Beyond withholding military aid from Ukraine to help himself politically, Trump was helping Putin in his aggression against Ukraine and thus improving his standing with his benefactor and potential blackmailer. And usurping Congress’s spending and oversight powers. 5-fold abuse!! — PolitiTweet.org

“Mueller’s evidence ended up resembling a lot of dry kindling that lacked a spark. The phone call to Ukraine, along with Trump’s potential refusal to let Congress investigate it, could well provide the spark.” https://t.co/67hAVE6Rqe®i_id=26089630 — PolitiTweet.org

The President’s Oath of Office: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” — U. S. Constitution, Art. II. — PolitiTweet.org

Withholding military aid to advance the president’s own political interests is the most obviously impeachable offense yet. Even if you’re a Trump supporter, you’re bound to see how much any president who does that threatens the country. — PolitiTweet.org

“When I took over the United States.” — Donald J. Trump, Dictator-wannabe, September 23, 2019 (referring at the UN to the start of his presidency). Only impeachment can disabuse DJT of that megalomaniacal delusion. — PolitiTweet.org

Two weeks of this stuff in real time and in full Monty is doing more to make impeachment unavoidable than two years of hypercautious Mueller tiptoeing under Rosenstein’s self-protective watch ever did. — PolitiTweet.org
