Now if the MSM would treat it as such, it would fade away.

But we all know they won't.

6. Pretty sure they're saying the same thing to themselves when the world doesn't help.

If you're worried, just know that no other countries are inclined to give them anything, and they certainly can't force them to.

Why would our allies want to help Trump. There's no good reason they can think of.

What country even likes Trump? A small handful of corrupt dictator and strongmen maybe, but no one else. He’s broken treaties and agreements, and he’s threatened them and insulted them and been an all around dick all the time. They want to see him go down as much as we do.

other four of them is more important than the safety of a corrupt few in one of them.

Don't worry. This bullshit effort by the DOJ personal law firm effort for 45 isn't going anywhere.

13. AND this non-issue will in no way undercut the credibility of the articles of impeachment.

They are stories that have never found evidence, and as such will be ruled irrelevant in comparison to all the evidence gathered by Democratic and intel investigations.

It's the evidence of coverup that gives strength to the current 45 removal effort, because coverup implies guilt in lawbreaking.

So clever-by-half, they think that they can avoid coverup charges by mistakenly breaking the law openly, which proves their utter stupidity about their oaths and what they took an oath FOR.

So it's too late for them to now try this, because it only brings new articles of impeachment.
