Trump’s Best Option for Avoiding Impeachment: An Apology (barf alert)
National Review ^ | 10/30/2019 | Jonah Goldberg

Posted on 11/01/2019 12:10:43 PM PDT by bkopto

In l’affaire Ukraine, the president is guilty as charged. And the best strategy for him to avoid impeachment by the House and perhaps even removal by the Senate is to admit it, apologize, and let voters make their own judgment. It’s also the best way to fend off a disaster for Senate Republicans.

The president is accused — politically, not criminally — of trying to force the Ukrainian president to tar former vice president Joe Biden with an investigation into his alleged “corruption” in exchange for the release of military aid and a meeting in the Oval Office. I believe a plain reading of the rough transcript of a phone call between Trump and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky supports the charge.

The traitors, cucks, neocons, and bow-tied losers at NR are piling on.

I don't usually give clicks to the NR losers, but I saw this article linked elsewhere. I knew it would be garbage.

Gee, and I sometimes need to be reminded why I let my NR subscription run out back some time ago. Jonah wants people to forget a timeline of years of events (as highlighted in the Glenn Beck video on the subject) so he can make this b.s. seem credible.

Yeah, Jonah really has Trump’s best interest in mind.

Not sure what happened to Jonah.

He was on his way to being a great one.

Why would he want to avoid impeachment?
Getting impeached will guarantee his re-election.

Bring it on.

In l’affaire Ukraine, the president is guilty as charged.

But there is no charge.

There is only the Guilty verdict.

National Review just can’t help themselves. No matter how they try to hide it, their RINO spinelessness will always reveal itself.

You’re right.

But he climbed on the NEVER TRUMP wagon and became a nobody.

Not sure what happened to Jonah.

He is what Paul Craig Roberts calls a presstitude - a journalist hired gun, a whore, writing contracted hit pieces for his 30 pieces of silver.

Jonah is a NeverTrumper Loser. In a fight he’d tap out before he even got hit.

I used to enjoy Jonah's work. But he has jumped a whole school of sharks.

Here is an unfortunate truth: Apologies never appease real political enemies.

The Democrats want to destroy Trump--and no apology is going to appease their blood lust. And, as I have been reflecting today, if they can destroy Trump with this sort of bullsh*t, then no GOP President is going to be safe again if Democrats control the Congress and key positions in the Deep State.

Jonah does not have sufficient killer instincts. We are not dealing with civilized and decent human beings. I don't like saying that--but it's true. You don't have to actually demonize Schiff and Pelosi, but you have to have to guts to tell them where to go and what to with themselves when they get there.

apologies are nice and wonderful
but
just WHAT does the author suggest PDJT apologize for, since he’s the constant victim of all kinds of slander and malicious allegations

victims do not normally need to apologize
