Welcome to America

I don’t think you can call it treason, but he did try and mislead the America people. He is as low as they go . If he had the transcript that had so much evidence in it, why would he have to lie to everyone. I feel he should be held responsible for his actions.

It was not a transcript so how is it you believe he tried to mislead but don’t feel the need to hold trump responsible when he is the biggest liar and offender?

I'm assuming you have documented proof that he lied. Please provide it to us now.

An ahole is an ahole, regardless of the job that they are sworn to do. Just like Lindsey, Maxine, Kamala and Gaetz... an ahole is an ahole.

He said what he was thinking not what was written. What don’t you understand about that. I saw his opening remarks and it was nothing that was in the transcript. So that is your proof. Why did he feel he had to make things up?

Go back and read it again. The WH released a memo of the call, not a transcript, with 2/3 of the conversation missing. Schiff made it very clear it wasn’t verbatim but his interpretation. I know in the bubblesphere they prefer trump’s short sentence lies and he most likely confused them and the president*, but that is their fault not his.

Is your lying president* faking it or is he actually as nuckin futs as he came across today?

It's called making a case. Prosecutors do it all the time. Maybe you can't draw inferences from the transcript, but most people can, based in part on Trump's bullying personality and past history. The difference with an impeachment case is that criminality or civil liability does not have to be proven, and the burden of proof is not as stringent. Nonetheless, with or without Schiff's entertaining and in my opinion accurate and damning assessment, grounds for impeachment are there in abundance. The transcript itself interpreted in the most literal manner is grounds for impeachment. Trump's numerous instances of obstruction of justice uncovered by Bob Mueller are grounds for impeachment. Finally, Trump's statements resulting from his fits of rage in reaction to the impeachment inquiry will result in ever increasing articles of impeachment in real-time.
