Trump's own words -- and staff's cover-up -- enough to impeach

Monday, September 30, 2019 5:55am
By Tom Burke / Herald columnist

... I wanted to write about Timberline Lodge on Mount Hood or Everett Civic Music, the best entertainment value in the Western Hemisphere ...

But I can’t write about this fun stuff because Donald Trump has forced the start of an impeachment investigation; and concern about our democracy, and the sheer mendacity of our president, takes precedence. Lord, how that man is upsetting our lives, our liberty and our sacred honor ...

... let’s forgo Trump’s typical in-the-bunker, back-against-the-wall playbook of attacking the whistleblower; discrediting the accusations; and belittling the media as calculated distractions and leave unproved conspiracies about the Bidens or BS about the Democrats in the trash, where they belong ...

For now, let’s all pay close attention to the facts; filter out the distractions and smokescreens; and watch this constitutionally validated investigation play out as we discover if our president is a liar, a thief, a thug, and a petty little man who would break any law for his petty little self-interest.

Thanks.

Every GOPer in office needs to be checked out to see if they did more than cheer for TrumPutin.
