Excellent article
The real reason for the Russia Hoax (and Ukraine, and impeachment, and the next thing)
FTA:
The Russia Hoax was never about Russia. It was always a cover story to unleash a legal assault on Team Trump, the sole aim of which was to look for, and create, secondary crimes (e.g., decades-old loan applications [Paul Manafort], a misremembered timeline [George Papadopoulos], raiding the son of a top-tier target [Michael Flynn] to compel a guilty plea, or the ever-reliable “lying” charge [Roger Stone]).
That’s it in the shell of a nut.
I missed this treehouse article first time around because I thought it was just bemoaning the long schedule the Senate was giving the impeachment trial. But a current article pointed back to it and I find there’s more research in there and some really depressing thoughts that the Senate is really aiming to take Trump out on the basis that they still have conservative Pence. Then bring in Nikki Haley as 2020 VP candidate. YUCK!!!!
But needful reading.
Senator Burr: Senate Impeachment Trial Will Last 6 to 8 weeks
Imagine their frustration when they had access to all of Trump’s communications, and those of third parties who he did busines with, and all of his business dealings, and they STILL couldn’t find any real crimes he has ever been involved with. I have said before, Trump must be the most clean person on the face of the earth. He has probably made sure to do everything by the book for a least the last few decades knowing that he might someday have to enter politics.
