The Russians collaborated with the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton Campaign,
Calling out a President for abuse of power and obstruction based on words and acts he does in plain sight is not the "politics of fear." Rep Schiff and the Impeachment members are carrying out their Constitutional mandate to check the power of the Executive branch.
The Russians collaborated with the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton Campaign, not the Republican National Committee or the Trump organization.
I find Adam Schiff to be quite clear, precise, and completely credible. God knows I'm only being honest in saying so. I am also aware of why Character assassination is in the playbook of the insidious.I heard some of Schiff's remarks the other day, and the claims are so imaginary, over the top, so far beyond anything credible or reasonable, that it's hard to imagine anyone but a dyed-in-the-wool partisan believing such absurdities.
And IF, on the outside chance that the House members actually believed some of it to be true...how is it that the articles of impeachment that they voted on did not feature any of it??
I am going to guess that this was your opinion even before he opened his mouth to speak. It would be almost impossible otherwise.I find Adam Schiff to be quite clear, precise, and completely credible. .
And what are YOU referring to?So since I do not wish to be with the wicked by projecting that I want to believe that you are wicked and casting unfounded insinuations against others such as myself....Of course it's not possible to know exactly what you're alluding to when you present only derogatory assertions without any example as to what you are referring to.
Good grief... has the Republican base become nothing more than a mouthpiece for Putin's disinformation?
That is contrary to known facts.The Russians collaborated with the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton Campaign, not the Republican National Committee or the Trump organization.
Putin hated Clinton whereas Donald was an easily manipulated newbie.And why not?--it had nothing to fear from a Hillary Clinton administration and her famous "restart" button, whereas President Trump has done plenty to try to stifle Putin's adventurism.
In retaliation for Russia throwing our diplomats out of Russia.Trump ordered Russia to close three of its diplomatic facilities in the US: its consulate in San Francisco and annexes in Washington, DC, and New York City.
SourceCNN said:"I want to thank him because we're trying to cut down our payroll and as far as I'm concerned," Trump said.
"There's no real reason for them to go back," Trump said. "I greatly appreciate the fact that we've been able to cut our payroll of the United States. We're going to save a lot of money."
It wasn't simple espionage, but the attempted assassination of Sergei Skripal.Publicly condemned Russian espionage in the UK.
He signed a veto-proof bill given to him by Congress and, even then, tried to water it down.Imposed sanctions.
Again, that seems to be the work of Congress rather than a presidential initiative.Worked to stop the new natural gas transmission line from Russia to Germany.
That is also related to the nerve gas attack on Sergei Skripal mentioned before.Expelled Russian diplomats in the USA.
That is contrary to known facts.
Who's claim was that one?
And Donald John himself:Most of Trump’s supporters back then.
Reuters said:DORAL, Fla. (Reuters) - U.S. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said on Tuesday that Democrat Hillary Clinton’s plan for Syria would “lead to World War Three,” because of the potential for conflict with military forces from nuclear-armed Russia.
Oh look - hand waving. How convincing!Lots of half-truths and downright errors on that post. Too many to bother correcting and too many that are just repeats of talking points employed by the RESIST! folks.
The biggliest Trump supporter!
Keeping in mind that wickedness projects wanting to believe bad about others as opposed to wanting to believe good about others, please explain why you would guess I would opine on what Mr. Schiff says before he says anything without implying prejudice on my part?I am going to guess that this was your opinion even before he opened his mouth to speak.
Please explain how I could possibly opine on what I had never heard?It would be almost impossible otherwise.
You said this:And what are YOU referring to?

Lots of half-truths and downright errors on that post. Too many to bother correcting and too many that are just repeats of talking points employed by the RESIST! folks. If the president shows the usual diplomatic courtesies to another head of state, he's criticized as though he was kow-towing or "in cahoots" with that person, but if he adopts a firm tone, the same critics criticize him for being aggressive and "undiplomatic."
Then you didn't read the article in my OP or listen to what Schiff said on the Senate floor.
Headline: Schiff warns of Russian attack on the US mainland.
His exact words were "As one witness put it during our impeachment inquiry, the United States aids Ukraine and her people so that we can fight Russia over there, and we don't have to fight Russia here," Schiff said, drawing rebukes from commentators across the across the political spectrum.
So that's not the politics of fear and terror? Or something like the Daisy commercial from 1964 that you can see in my post #2??
Derogatory refers to your criticism as diminishing, regardless of the language. Respectfully, I did not opine. I said that I did not want to think you are engaging in wickedness, and I meant that and I even gave you reason why I meant that.But you did opine, using the terms "wickedness" and "derogatory" in response to my post.
I was critical, yes, but refrained from using excessive language.
All right. Consider the following, particularly Schiff's words in the final paragraph which were widely criticized.You simply need to provide some examples of the things he has said which prompted your criticism, and it would also be all the more ingenuous if you would explain why you find them to be imaginary, over the top, and/or unreasonable.
American's can no longer have full confidence that the 2020 Elections will be free and fair - should "The Donald" defy the polls and be re-elected, how will he be able to convince a skeptical electorate that he is their legitimate President, as more incriminating evidence continues to surface!
That’s not what he said.The issue here, however, had turned to something that IS new--a prominent member of Congress actually saying, under oath, that the people ought not be trusted with making the decision (since, of course, they might again choose the candidate that that the speaker and his party doesn't prefer).
