The quid pro quo, in my judgment, is a red herring, Kennedy opined before agreeing that it would be over the line for Trump to ask Ukraine to conduct an investigation into Joe Biden.
I think this case is going to come down to the presidents intent, his motive, did he have a culpable state of mind? Kennedy said.
So, over the line, does that mean impeachable? Brennan wondered.
Yeah, probably, Kennedy agreed.
So there is something that could potentially persuade you to vote for removal? the CBS host pressed.
I cant answer that, Margaret, Kennedy deflected. Because that encompasses all possible scenarios. It is like asking me, if I didnt go fishing on Saturday, how many fish would I have caught?

(5,810 posts)Does he even listen to the garbled mess that comes out of his mouth? I doubt it. History wont be kind to him. He needs to think about that. Every time he goes for an interview he is sealing
his fate and his place in history.
I just wonder if any of these clowns who are stirring the pot for tRump have given any thought to their place in history. Real thought. 🤔

(22,156 posts)their faces when rump and cronies do something totally illegal. I feel (IMHO) that if they do nothing, they are effectively guilty of aiding and abetting rump and cronies to continue to break the law, etc. Consequences must be severe in their complicity in allowing this crap to continue. Country first, remember?

If he had asked rhetorically, "If I HAD gone fishing on Saturday, how many fish would I have caught?" THEN he would have made sense. Of course, being a Republican, that is frowned upon, I realize.

(63,221 posts)Maybe there isn't something I am getting, but if Trump "honestly" wanted Hunter Biden investigated for wrongdoing, why wouldn't he ask our own intelligence agencies? Why ask a foreign power for information? He knew exactly what he was doing and he knew it was wrong. He's stupid, but he's not that stupid.

(34,423 posts)is unbelievable. Their chiropractor bills must be enormous. Their torturous verbal gymnastics, obfuscating, and downright lying fills me with a morbid fascination. They will do or say anything to save that con man. The only explanation is they're deathly afraid of their vile, despicable base and/or they have their own problem with Russian money. History will not be kind to them, but they don't care. The only thing that matters to them is power and their cushy jobs now. And every day we slip farther into the abyss. Thank God we took the House and there are still federal judges who value the rule of law. We would be utterly lost.
