Donald Trump Is a Clear and Present Danger to the 2020 Election (epic hurl)
NY Times ^ | 12/05/19 | Anne Milgram

Posted on 12/05/2019 4:49:07 PM PST by Libloather

The report released on Wednesday by the House Intelligence Committee begins with a powerful indictment: “The impeachment inquiry,” the first sentence says, “uncovered a monthslong effort by President Trump to use the powers of his office to solicit foreign interference on his behalf in the 2020 election.”

Mentions of the “2020 election” and the president’s re-election campaign can be found scattered throughout the 300-page document. The core message comes through loud and clear: The harm here is not a historical one. This report warns of a future harm: that an American president used his enormous power - and may use it again - to compel a foreign country to alter the outcome of the next presidential election.

We are faced with a direct threat that is unfolding before our eyes. If left unchecked, the president’s abusive behavior stands as a clear and present danger to the future of our democracy. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said as much on Thursday when she announced that the House Judiciary Committee would begin drafting articles of impeachment. “The facts are uncontested,” Ms. Pelosi said. “The president abused his power for his own personal political benefit, at the expense of our national security.”

Our criminal law has three main goals: to punish a person who has broken the law, to stop that person from causing a current harm and to deter future harm.

Yep. Just ask any illegal alien.

Ms. Milgram is a former federal prosecutor

Schiffty was an Assistant United States Attorney in the Office of the United States Attorney for the Central District of California. Hollywood.

Where is the evidence of this “monthslong effort by President Trump to use the powers of his office to solicit foreign interference on his behalf in the 2020 election.”?

“uncovered a monthslong effort by President Trump to use the powers of his office to solicit foreign interference on his behalf in the 2020 election.” A complete and utter lie.

If an investigation found no wrongdoing, would it alter the 2020 election? No.

If an investigation found wrongdoing, wouldn’t it be best to prevent a person breaking the laws of our nation to become the CIC? Yes.

The Left doesn’t have a leg to stand on here.

Yes, and not a word of that is true and there hasn't even been a piece of evidence to even suggest this occurred even for the wildest imagination. Quite the opposite. Yet, this was still written.

To the Left, it isn't important for something to be true - it is just important that it is effective in furthering their cause. The truth and facts are wholly irrelevant for consideration.

The “Treaty with Ukraine on Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters”, Treaty Document 106-16 was approved in 1999 under President Clinton. It authorizes mutual assistance with Ukraine in the investigation of crimes. Trump was following the law in the Ukraine phone call, not violating it.

“The facts are uncontested,” Ms. Pelosi said.

Considering that there has been no trial, technically
that would be true, it’s also irrelevant.

More importantly, where are the people that care besides the 25 percent of the country that HATES Trump no matter what.

He’s disliked by more but the INSANE HATE factor is only about 25 percent, if that.

If Trump gets a third of the black vote, it’s all over but the cheating.
