3. I had to turn off the ignorant pundits

Who did not bother to listen to the well thought out program Democratic Leaders had.

Many of them joined in with Republican talking points to talk about what they considered appearance instead of the facts laid out in front of them. The gaggle of so called pundits sitting around giving their ill informed opinions bore me. That is why I watch CSPAN.

What I witnessed was a man, very nervous at the beginning, who did not want to be there. But as the day went on the asinine attacks of rigt wingers, who really showed what they are caused Bob Mueller to stiffen his spine, actually made fun of Gohmert, sat with a poker face during the attacks, then honestly answered the well thought out questions of Nadler and Schiff. Especially Schiff. That man is an expert. Really should run for President.

After the hearing I tuned the TV off. I knew what was coming.

Tip of the hat to Colbert... InAbLuEsTaTe Jul 2019 #1
