Lindsey's BOLD impeachment defense: Trump "did nothing wrong in his mind." USA! MAGA! USA! USA! USA!



“The president believes that the Ukraine interfered in out election,” Graham continued. “I can tell you without any doubt it was the Russians who hacked into the DNC. It was not the Ukrainians. I cannot say that there was nobody in the Ukraine that had worked with [Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort] that did a number on him. I don’t know.”

“All I can tell you is from the president’s point of view, he did nothing wrong in his mind,” the South Carolina Republican insisted.

When it came to calling Joe and Hunter Biden as witnesses, Graham said that he preferred to “end this thing sooner rather than later.”

“I want the American people to pick the next president, not me,” he added. “And so I think the best thing to happen is to have oversight of Ukrainian potential misconduct and move on to the election. I am not going to use my vote to extend the trial.”

“The country needs a break from this,” Graham said. “If you think there’s a whistleblower problem, we can deal with that outside impeachment.”

So what if all those people got hurt. He had reasons.

You have no choice but to acquit.

If the mind isn't fit, you must acquit.

shithole hears voices in his head, but that's fine, and therefore any harm or death because of such is moot . . .

Sincerely, Republicans.

6. "I want the American people to pick the next president"

We chose the last president, but got hosed by a relic from our slave-holding past, Senator. As for the next election, don't you think the American people deserve to make their choice based on the most complete information available? If not, why not? As for needing a break from this, speak for yourself not the whole country. We're quite interested to know if our president is a corrupt grifter, like the evidence that's being presented to you strongly suggests.
