Republican Impeachment Report: Dems Have No Evidence On President Trump, No Crimes Committed

This was posted on Facebook by an ex-colleague of mine along with a link to an article.

My reply is:

Republicans have statements.
The House has evidence.
(And a statement that evidence is not evidence is only a statement, not evidence.)

1. House Intelligence Committee Report: Obvious Evidence of Obstruction and Witness Intimidation

It is a federal crime to intimidate or seek to intimidate any witness appearing before Congress. This prohibition applies to anyone who knowingly “uses intimidation, threatens, or corruptly persuades” another person in order to “influence, delay, or prevent the testimony of any person in an official proceeding.” Violations of this law can carry a criminal sentence of up to 20 years in prison.

RushAblican Senators will betray their Oath of Office on that?

3. The Republican "argument" boils down to one word...

4. So, in other words republicans are saying

A foreign country can illegally get their candidate elected as our president and they're ok with that. They're ok with a president bribing others , or extorting other countries to influence our elections , they're ok with an enemy ruled by a corrupt murderer, a terrorist, and blackmailer is ok to choose our president for us. If trump isn't impeached that's exactly what they are saying. Election rigging is ok, and trump accused others of doing what he's been doing all along. If he's given a pass they will soon be attacked by trump and bypassed and weakened even more, because he will get worse, a lot worse and we'll soon be like russia where putin has it only the most corrupt prosper, no one else.

5. Yes it's fine with one unstated caveat...

As long as it's the Republican doing it.
