Tulsi Gabbard: Transcript doesn't show 'compelling' case for impeachment

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Omaha Steve (a host of the General Discussion forum).

The Rising reports:

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) said Wednesday that the partial transcript of President Trump’s call with Ukraine’s president released by the Trump administration doesn’t show a “compelling” case for impeachment.

“Most people reading through that transcript are not going to find that extremely compelling cause to throw out a president that won an election in 2016,” the Democratic presidential candidate said during an appearance on “Rising.”

The Hawaii representative maintained that impeachment will only deepen the “hyperpartisan divides,” and argued that most people will only see it as another politically-motivated move by Democrats to oust Trump.

I said it before and I'm saying it again. Somebody is smelling like a GOP double agent. You can count on her to take up a position contrary to whatever we are doing the way you can count on Collins to be "concerned" and and Lindsey to say "it doesn't matter".
