CNN contacted the offices of 64 Republican lawmakers in the House & Senate today to see if any had concerns with Trump’s public call for China to investigate Biden.

Only a few responded, not a single one said yes.

This is where we are.

1. We were there before the 2016 election

Trump asked the Russians to find and release Cllinton's emails.

No wonder he thinks asking foreign leaders to do his opposition research for him is A-OK...

2. And this is what we do: DEMOCRATS, read the following EVERY DAY to the press,

and ask a different celebrity to do it each day:

52 U.S. Code § 30121. Contributions and donations by foreign nationals

(a) Prohibition
It shall be unlawful for—
(1) a foreign national, directly or indirectly, to make—

(A) a contribution or donation of money or other thing of value, or to make an express or implied promise to make a contribution or donation, in connection with a Federal, State, or local election;

(B) a contribution or donation to a committee of a political party; or

(C) an expenditure, independent expenditure, or disbursement for an electioneering communication

3. Or just say, "Crimes committed out in the open are still crimes." Simple and easy to grasp.

I'm not sure why Democratic leadership didn't immediately hold a press conference today to say just that after Trump made his China comment.

"We witnessed yet again today the president commit an impeachable offense. Crimes committed out in the open are still crimes. The president is trying to fool the public into believing that if he admits to collusion then collusion must not be wrong. It is wrong. It is impeachable. And we are going to hold the president accountable. We will not allow him to normalize his criminality. We'll now take a few questions."

Simple as that. Control the narrative.
