It may be "secret", but we sure hear a lot about it

Update:

10.23.19:

More huffing and puffing today in the media.  Let's try to look at this from a different angle.  Let's say that the Democrats are exactly right about Trump pressuring the Ukrainians.

Even if they are exactly right, I find it too stupid to believe.  Why would Trump start all this when he has the Russian thing beat, and things are falling his way?

It doesn't make sense what they are claiming, even if they can corroborate it, it still doesn't make sense.  They expect anyone to believe that he was really worried about Joe Biden?  Seriously?  Even the Democrats don't believe in Joe Biden.

Finally, if the Democrats case is so rock solid, then why all the secrecy?

Sorry, I'm not buying what they are selling.  We've seen it before.


10.22.19:

The Star Chamber is leaking out what they want people to hear.  So one thing that they are leaking out is that there is testimony to the effect that Trump really did pressure the Ukrainians somehow, and this was contingent upon aid.

To me, even if it is true, it doesn't matter.  The Democrats huff and puff about the law being violated, but even if he did what they accused him of, so what?  There is probable cause for an investigation based upon what Biden said on tape.  Never mind the spin that they give about it.  It is a clear quid pro quo for firing an investigator in exchange for aid.

If Biden's act wasn't wrong, how can Trump's be wrong?  But Trump isn't wrong, and Biden was.  His son was spared an investigation.  He is at least wrong about conflict of interest.  This much at the very least.  Anything less strains the credulity of the most gullible, in my opinion.  There is more than sufficient evidence to begin an investigation, and it is a scandal that the American agencies weren't doing that already.

Trump isn't wrong, but they'll say that he benefited somehow.  I'm not buying it.  The Democrats don't care about corruption.  Hell, they live off of it.

As for this "secret" testimony, without cross examination, we don't know what if anything he actually said, and what if anything, what its true import is.

Just more bravo sierra as far as I'm concerned.
