GOP senator says she's too focused on ethanol to read 9-page whistleblower report

By Dan Desai Martin -
September 26, 2019

The nine-page report outlines Trump's illicit activities related to Ukraine and 2020 election interference.

Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) says she has yet to read a whistleblower report outlining credible allegations Trump abused his power by pressuring a foreign government to investigate a political foe, in order to help his chances in the 2020 election.

"I haven't read the full report," Ernst, one of several vulnerable senators up for reelection in 2020, told a Washington Post reporter Thursday afternoon.

The "full report" to which she is referring is a total of seven pages long, plus an additional two-page appendix. Ernst said she was unable to discuss the allegations in it.

"If you do want to talk about ethanol, I am happy to talk about ethanol because that’s where all my efforts are right now," she added.

Stupid is Stupid..and guess what? It is still stupid..

Like your hero, Mr Trump..you have shot yourself in the head. I love that one..........................

"If you do want to talk about ethanol, I am happy to talk about ethanol because that’s where all my efforts are right now," she added.

And stupidly, Joni thinks she can get away with it. Joni will never hear the end of that sentence.

career people who far exceed the senators themselves in various fields of expertise. Lawrence O'Donnell was a high-level senate aide for a quarter century. If they don't want to bother their own people, they could always ask Lawrence to have one of his staffers text over a summary in a few bullet points.

* Trump's screwed.
* Pence's screwed.
