What Trump wants to do is give the public the impression that Trump was justified in having suspicion that Hunter Biden was involved in corruption, and SloJoe was keeping the prosecutors away - he doesn;t have to prove those things, he only has to show it is reasonable to suspect those things.
Do the same with Ukraine meddling in the 2016 election.
Trump had to know Ukraine was going to be used against him, just like Russia was. Deployment of Rudy to Ukraine was done for a reason.
I agree - now, as POTUS, what obligation is there to protect the presidency as an institution? Does the plan need impeachment for one reason or another? I can see how it justifies unleashing the hounds - but before or after? I think there’s a case to be made that impeachment should be avoided at all costs. NOTE “Q” said that there was no chance for removal from office and the Senate was the target - but the wording was always no chance for impeachment vs. removal. TBD ;)
