But my Republican friends and family are circulating a post on social media called Impeachment Trial Summary. It's full of errors, so I thought I'd fix it! My corrections are in red.
Before I begin I just want to remind you regardless of the Senate Outcome - Trump will always have IMPEACHED on his presidential record!
Impeachment trial summary:
Dems: We have an airtight case against the President
Reps: Ok, go ahead
Dems: Trump and his staff came up with a plot to withhold
funding to Ukraine contingent on the announcement of investigations into Joe
Biden's son. AN ABUSE OF POWER, then he obstructed our investigation!
(We know this because Guilliani sent a letter to Ukraine also asking
for the investigations in which he made it clear this was for private citizen
Trump not president Trump)
Reps: Oh gee that sounds bad.
Dems: It gets worse, he also withheld a meeting with the new
President of Ukraine unless he complied.
Reps: WOW. That poor man, when will they get the money?
Dems: Oh, they already got the money. A few weeks before the
deadline
(because TRUMP found out about the whistleblower)
(because TRUMP found out about the whistleblower)
Reps: Wait, he got the money? Are they going to withdraw the
investigations?
Dems: He never announced the investigations, but Trump asked
them to investigate in their meeting.
(We have Les Parnas’ note now pushing the investigations, or at least for them to claim they had started investigations, at Rudy’s behest)
(We have Les Parnas’ note now pushing the investigations, or at least for them to claim they had started investigations, at Rudy’s behest)
Reps: Wait, THEY HAD THE MEETING?
Dems: Well yeah, they had a meeting
Reps: So let me make sure I have this right, Trump gave them the
money before the deadline (Because he was found out about the whistleblower), they
didn't announce any investigations and they got the meeting.
Dems: Yes
Reps: And you investigated this?
Dems: Of course we did, we had to, the president clearly has bad
motives.
Reps: and you found proof of this?
Dems: Absolutely, one guy overheard someone else on the phone
talking to Trump about the whole scheme. (We also have Guilliani’s
admissions on not just CNN but on Fox News)
Reps: Like on speaker phone?
Dems: Not exactly, more like across the table in a crowded
restaurant, not on speakerphone.
Reps: I see, I suppose he destroyed all the evidence, thus the
obstruction.
Dems: Well no, first he declassified the meeting transcripts,
BUT then he said he had executive privilege or some nonsense. (Not
actual Transcripts, the way Trump “remembers” them)
Reps: What did the court say?
Dems: What court?
Reps: Didn't you take him to court to get the records?
Dems: There was no time, we can't have a president extorting
foreign countries. LOL MAN, are you crazy?
Reps: Just a second, let me catch my breath.
Dems: Shocking isn't it.
Reps: To recap, Trump gave Ukraine a meeting, the funding, no
investigations were launched, declassified the meeting, and offered to go to
let the courts decide on executive privilege, and you impeached based on an
overheard phone call and the fact that you were in a hurry?
Dems: Well... when you say it like that it makes us sound silly.
But you'll see when we call new witnesses during the Senate phase.
Reps: YOU HAVEN'T EVEN INTERVIEWED ALL THE WITNESSES YET? (Because
all of Trumps allies who claim he is innocent refused to show up and defend
him)
Dems: Well, no but we did interview a few low level staffers. (Wait,
the Ambassador to the European Union is a low level staffer? The Ukraine Envoy Kurt
Volger was a low level staffer?)
Reps: *looks around*
Dems: *grins confidently*
Reps: You're *** crazy. (Puts head in sand, refuses to hear or look at evidence and literally hides from facts)
