Himes: Trump’s Abuse of Power, Corruption ‘Makes the Nixon Impeachment Look like Child’s Play’
Breitbart ^ | 11/12/2019 | Pam Key

On this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT) said President Donald Trump’s abuses of power made former President Richard Nixon’s impeachment “look like child’s play.”

Himes said, “We are looking at abuse of power and a level of corruption here that makes the Nixon impeachment look like child’s play. Remember, Nixon wasn’t the guy who actually broke into the Democratic National Committee headquarters. He just knew about it. Nobody died in Ukraine because Nixon held up aid to a very vulnerable nation. Nixon didn’t fire any ambassadors because Giuliani didn’t like that ambassador.”

In the age of bottled water, water coolers seem obsolete. A new gathering place is the wireless printer/copy machine. When someone prints a hundred copies of a 23 page document, the waiting crowd backs up

(based on my observations while visiting )

Alas, Nixon was not impeached.

You have it backwards. The corrupt and complicit MSM crafts the words for these people, then films them speaking the words.

I think they share the same brain.

They keep saying "abuse of power" and "corruption" - tossing these terms around to invoke an emotional response.

Not only an emotional response, but intellectually vague. One can look at the quid pro quo and say, "No, don't see it," but general charges? No one knows what they're talking about, most of all them.

I can still remember Jim Himes at one of the “Town Hall” Congress critter meetings he ‘attended’ regarding the ACA.

I say ‘attended’ since he was there on stage - checking his cell phone for clues on how to answer various types of mad questions.

He seemed so inhuman.

The only thing Nixon did wrong was to lie and help cover up a stupid escapade.
