SCHIFF: "But this has become the President's defense. And yet, this defense proved indefensible. If abuse of power is not impeachable, even though it is clear the Founders considered it the highest of all high crimes and misdemeanors, but if it were not impeachable, then a whole range of utterly unacceptable conduct and the president would now be beyond reach. Trump could offer Alaska to the Russians in exchange for support in the next election or decide to move to Mar-a-Lago permanently and let Jared Kushner run the country, delegating to him the decision whether to go to war. Because those things are not necessarily criminal, this argument would allow that he could not be impeached for such abuses of power. Of course, this would be absurd. More than absurd, it would be dangerous.“

Why on God’s green earth would Trump sell it back to Russia?Schiff thinks he will sell Alaska to generate enough money to buy Greenland.

Schiff is enthralled with the echoes reverberating down the canyons of his mind. It’s a Burbank thing.

didn’t Jeff Flake, who claims to be a Republican and a conservative one, said Schiff is brilliant?

I can’t believe the #metoo movement and P-brigade hasn’t been triggered by Sanders article on women dream of being raped at same time by 3 men when making love to her man. He wrote this in 1972.
I suppose if Trump twittered this he would get banned eh?

Trump could have NASA contact the aliens from a planet 1,000 light years away and have them come to Earth to abduct Schiff and all the leftists running for president.
