Impeachment: Democrats can read minds

The following is from my latest article in The Hill

In following the Democrats’ impeachment effort, I have listened to both sides with an open mind, tried to do some original research, and put a lot of thought into the arguments and claims.

If what the Democrats allege is true, it’s disturbing, indeed.

Democrats claim President Trump is corrupt and that he abused his power, primarily because he called the new president of Ukraine and demanded that he find dirt on a Trump political rival — Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden — to bolster Trump's chances of winning the 2020 presidential election. The U.S. president acted solely in his own personal political interest, they say, and selfishly sacrificed the nation’s interest.

Furthermore, Democrats say, what Trump held out as leverage — a quid pro quo — was U.S. taxpayer-funded military aid to Ukraine. They say people died while Ukraine waited for this critical aid, and that it was released only when Trump realized he was in trouble and under investigation. And finally, they say Trump held up a White House meeting with the Ukrainian president until he would commit to announcing an investigation into Biden, in a very public interview with CNN. It’s bribery. Treason. Impeachable.

The issue I have is that to prove their points, Democrats require us to believe they can read minds.

President Trump said nothing about a quid pro quo during the phone callin question. He didn’t threaten to hold up aid or a White House meeting. But Democrats say that’s exactly what he meant. (Continued...)

    OUTSTANDING

    I am a Democrat but this is so unfair for our president.
    I wish ABC, NBC, CBC, CNN, etc. would put this in there news but they will not.
    Most America people do not get the correct information, it is unfair and sad.

    Thank you
