2. LOL, Democrats are NOT rushing

Trump has been doing impeachable things SINCE DAY ONE

7. He's talking about Republicans rushing to defend it.

Not Democrats rushing to pursue it.

He says that the GOP shouldn't rush to declare that there's nothing there, because in his opinion, there's something there.

9. he says "Democrats ought not to use the word impeach"

seriously, WTF

[TwilightZone]

11. Ah.

I didn't get that far. In the article I read about it, that part wasn't mentioned.

It's a bit of a contradiction. He's talking about the "terrible" stuff in the report, but heaven forbid that Trump face any consequences for it, I guess.

So...typical Sasse.

12. yup

4. Watched the Rethugs for more than

five decades. Each and everytime they have any type of Crisis,they march out some Guy that is or not up for reelection or is sitting in what is called a save set. Sasse will sell this new Narrative over the next 48 hrs. Plays great in Omaha.

5. 'there's obviously lots that's very troubling there.'

6. The Mueller report had enough of there there to impeach. This new issue is just the cherry

on the top (so far)!

8. As if I'm going to respect the wisdom of someone who's voted lockstep with MM mean legisltation

Moscow Mitch is your leader. Get him to come around, then let's talk about purging our government of YOUR corruption.
