I'm confused by the R defense on Trump

[TheHak]

So half of them really are saying that basically there is nothing into it, and that had Schiff and Pelosi seen the 'transcript' before acting too quickly they would not have impeached


And the other half are telling us that this was an effort orchestrated by the democrats and that they helped even write the complaint

How are those defenses even compatible? And then seems like individual 1 likes to retweet them all.

Please inform all villages who have lost their idiot to go and look for them at ?310 First Street SE; Washington.

1. It's not about being logical. It's all about muddying the water.

I just made a somewhat related post about these various arguments that Republicans are putting forth: https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=12553759.

2. "We'll just throw everything against the wall and let Trump's base cherry-pick it!"

3. Republican officeholders are doing what they normally do.

They are lying and working their asses off to build a false narrative. They generally all mouth the same line, the fact that they are split shows how rattled they are by the evidence that has mounted against Trump.
