"Arms for Dirt"

Heard that description of Trump's little Ukraine adventure last night from a Republican (non-Trumpist) Consultant and thought that it was brilliant. It captures the essence of what Trump was up to without the need for more explanation and is reasonably understandable by even the most intractable Deplorable. Like them or not, the Rethugs have a huge headstart in go-for-the-jugular consultants and I'm not averse to taking this freebie and running with it. I believe "Arms for Dirt" should be emplazoned on every web site and repeated ad nauseam on every liberal-leaning TV show from now until the impeachment trial.
