Ahead of impeachment hearings, Trump claimed multiple times that he was being denied legal representation and due process during the Congressional impeachments hearings.
However, Trump refused to send any form of legal representation.
Why is such a focus put on 2nd and 3rd hand witnesses, many of whom are Never Trumpers, or whose lawyers are Never Trumpers, when all you have to do is read the phone call (transcript) with the Ukrainian President and see first hand? He and others also stated that there was…..
…..”no pressure” put on him to investigate Sleepy Joe Biden even though, as President, I have an “obligation” to look into corruption, and Biden’s actions, on tape, about firing the prosecutor, and his son’s taking millions of dollars, with no knowledge or talent, from a…..
….Ukrainian energy company, and more millions taken from China, and now reports of other companies and countries also giving him big money, are certainly looking very corrupt (to put it mildly!) to me. Both Bidens should be forced to testify in this No Due Process Scam!
Trump justified the White House’s refusal to participate by claiming that the entire investigation was a hoax.
The Democrats, the radical-left Democrats, the do-nothing Democrats, decided when I’m going to NATO – this was set up a year ago – that when I’m going to NATO, that was the exact time – this is one of the most important journeys that we make as president, and for them to be doing this and saying this and putting impeachment on the table, which is a hoax to start off with.
Trump claimed that the Ukrainian President had exonerated him from any wrongdoing in the quid pro quo scandal in which he asked for dirt on Democratic Presidential candidate Joe Biden. The scandal ultimately led to his impeachment.
The claim was made about an interview Time had had with the Ukrainian President. The Ukrainian President made no such remarks in the interview.
Breaking News: The President of Ukraine has just again announced that President Trump has done nothing wrong with respect to Ukraine and our interactions or calls. If the Radical Left Democrats were sane, which they are not, it would be case over!
The centennial in question was the Women’s Suffrage Centennial Coin Act. Trump remarked, “I’m curious why wasn’t it done a long time ago? And also, I guess the answer to that is because now I’m President, we get things done.” He appeared unaware of what a centennial is.
"I'm curious why wasn't it done a long time ago? And also, I guess the answer to that is because now I'm president, we get things done."
During the 53 minutes, Trump spoke at length about various conspiracy theories and made several false claims about the ongoing impeachment hearings. Among them, Ukraine’s supposed role in tampering with elections, and how the phone call with the Ukrainian leader at the center of the impeachment hearings was made up. He also directly admitted to holding up the military aid that had been agreed upon by Congress, saying, “I mean, I asked it very point-blank, because we’re looking for corruption. There’s tremendous corruption. Why should we be giving hundreds of millions of dollars to countries when there’s this kind of corruption?”
The ISIS fighters had managed to escape from Kurdish prisons in the wake of Turkey’s offensive against them. Turkey began offensive operations after Trump unilaterally removed all US forces in the region. Trump appeared unconcerned about European or Kurdish allies.
Greenland is a territory of Denmark. The government of Greenland replied, “We have a good cooperation with USA…Of course, Greenland is not for sale.” The Danish PM also unequivocally rejected the idea. Trump took offense to the Danish PM’s “nasty” response.
Trump said, “I’ve always liked American wines better than French wines. Even though I don’t drink wine. I just like the way they look.”
President Trump says he might tax French wine: "France put on a tax on our companies, you know that, and wrong. Wrong thing to do… I've always liked American wines better than French wines. Even though I don't drink wine. I just like the way they look, okay?" pic.twitter.com/QJxNLK1FTg
….As proven last week during a Congressional tour, the Border is clean, efficient & well run, just very crowded. Cumming District is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess. If he spent more time in Baltimore, maybe he could help clean up this very dangerous & filthy place
After Trump tried to fire the Special Counsel through White House Counsel Don McGahn, Trump later directed McGahn to put in writing that the request had never been made. The President remarked, “if he doesn’t write a letter, then maybe I’ll have to get rid of him.” McGahn refused, and though Trump backed down from his threat, McGahn ultimately resigned.
McGahn noted that during his tenure, he had been asked to “do crazy shit.”
The Special Counsel originated in an FBI investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, and officially formed after Trump fired FBI Director James Comey.
I just want to thank all the incredible men and women who have done such a great job helping with Florence. This is a tough hurricane — one of the wettest we’ve ever seen, from the standpoint of water. Rarely have we had an experience like it. And it certainly is not good. But the people of North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, all of the areas affected, you’ve been incredible.
