In a sign that even Trump-haters don’t see strong enough grounds to impeach President Trump, The New York Times on Monday “broke” yet another breathless story meant to bolster the case about his supposed abuse of power.
Trump “pressed” Australia’s leader “in a recent telephone call” to help Attorney General William Barr collect info to “discredit” the Mueller probe, the paper said, citing (as usual) unnamed sources. “The president,” it concluded, “is using federal law enforcement powers to aid his political interests.”
Other anti-Trump media pushed the smear with similar enthusiasm.
This, on the heels of a whistleblower’s complaint that Trump made a similar request in a call to Ukraine’s leader that became the basis for Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s “impeachment inquiry.”
Trouble is, the Times’ story offered scant evidence to show the president crossed any lines, just as the text of the call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky failed to show any wrongdoing by Trump.

I believe that the time to institute universal background check for all those journalists, editors and publishers of “news media” has arrived.
My gut tells me that will be one sure way to thin that herd.
The fact is... Trump haters and the DumocRATS don’t care whether or not impeachment will work. The haters need appeasement and the DumocRATS need their votes... The DumocRATS fortunately forget for Trump and Republican’s sake, that those votes won’t get them elected in any states except New York and California.
This nonsense will result in Trumps reelection and the Democrats demise in congress, because when a lefty like Pelosi looks like the calm one... You know the DumocRAT party is in very big trouble.
It’s true. They just say whatever Trump does is somehow wrong and illegal.
Trump’s approval numbers are better in the latest Rasmussen poll (Oct 1st) than at the beginning of Sept. =>
He's in office as a result of a crime: he beat Hillary Clinton in the election of 2016.
Therefore, everything he does in office is also a crime, and compounds the original crime.
And they are changing rules and laws on the fly while trying to catch Trump breaking one.
