If you don't like how Democrats have framed the Articles of Impeachment, help them tell the story!
Disclosure - I totally stole this idea from DeminPennswoods
FTR, nothing is stopping you from describing the impeachment
in terms of bribery when you are out canvassing. Just be sure to understand that when you use the term bribery, the vast majority of people are going to think it means Zelensky tried to bribe Trump, not the other way around.
If you want a simpler message, probably better off using the hostage analogy. Trump held Zelensky hostage in order to get something that personally benefitted himself. Use Schiff's quote, "nice country you have there, shame if anything happened to it".
https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=12767973Instead of complaining that the Democrats didn't include this or that in the Articles of Impeachment, help spread the word about impeachment on the ground with the people you know. The Democrats can't message this all by themselves. And people in the real world aren't going to get all of their information - or even some of it - by reading Articles of Incorporation and watching Pelosi press conferences in the middle of the day. But they're much more likely to listen to their friends and neighbors who are knowledgeable about what's happening.
Tell the story in your communities. Explain to them that Trump abused his power and threatened national security by trying to extort favors from a foreign government. Help them understand what's going on and what this all means.
We all should play a part in this and the Democrats have given us more than enough to work with!
