Schiff: Impeachment testimony shows Trump 'doesn't give a [bleep]' about what's good for the country

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), a prominent figure in the impeachment inquiry, has said that President Trump "doesn’t give a [bleep] about what’s good for our country."

Schiff, in an interview with The New Yorker, cited the impeachment testimony of diplomat David Holmes, who said he was told that Trump did not care about Ukraine and only cared about "big stuff" like an investigation into Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.

“That says it all,” Schiff told the magazine. “The President doesn’t give a [bleep] about what’s good for our country, what’s good for Ukraine. It’s all about what’s in it for him personally and for his reelection campaign.”

So Schiff believes that Vice Presidents selling their office, and laundering bribes from Ukrainian oligarch’s through his son is “what’s good for our country”?

Were Biden to be elected, wouldn’t his Ukrainian sale of office scheme be exactly what the founders intended impeachment to address? Trump was 100% right to seek an investigation of massive fraud during the Obama years, and protect current aid. He should have caused creation of a Special Counsel for this long ago. I presume he couldn’t find anyone in the DoJ or outside honest enough to conduct it.

Yes, of course, because the largest migration of jobs INTO the country ever, the lowest unemployment rate probably ever, energy independence for the first time in 70 years, a revitalized and re-equipped military, and secure borders are the pursuit of a President who doesn’t give a damn about the country.

Who can believe this assault on reason?

About 65 million dolts living especially in those bluish areas.

I guess what’s good for Adams country is:
Politicians using family members to enrich themselves.
Ambassadors with their own agendas.
Endless sham hearings and make up law and rules as you go along.
Hearsay becoming more important than direct evidence.
Open borders, sanctuary cities/states, illegals voting.
Minimum wage increases to kill off small business and buy votes with other peoples money.
Unlimited wiretaps for political purposes.

This is just a starter list...

The attitude shown by Pelosi, and now Schiff, seems to be anger & complete disbelief that President Trump refuses to put his head through the noose they’ve created (out of thin air) for him. Defending yourself against false charges and hearsay, refusing to obey “subpoenas” that are not legal or binding and asking to be able to set up your own defense and question accusers is not “Obstruction of Justice”.

Somebody said they were told

That is layered hearsay. Actually its gone into being the kindergarten game of “telephone” only deeper.

IOW, it isn't testimony. It's not even hearsay, probably, because he made the **** up, or the jackass who purportedly told him had made it up, or perhaps read about it in an interview with Schiff.

Schittforbrains is where he is based on less than 200 thousand votes. Our Great POTUS is where he is based on nearly 70 million voters who love and support him.

F*** off, Schittforbrains, you insanely jealous POS! Go back to your third world Schitthole in Kalifornia!

What is the Democrat-controlled House of Reprehensibles doing that’s “good for the country”?
