Opinion
Donald Trump keeps making it harder for supporters to defend him
by Philip Klein
 | October 03, 2019 11:26 AM



As President Trump keeps talking, he makes it more and more difficult for his supporters to mount an actual defense of his underlying behavior.

Trump's pushback against impeachment efforts seemed to be gaining some traction on Wednesday with the revelation that House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff lied about having had contacts with the Ukraine whistleblower. In fact, the whistleblower reached out to his office before filing the complaint. This came on the heels of Schiff improvising a version of Trump's call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during a Congressional hearing rather than just reading directly from the text of the call. In a highly politicized impeachment fight, being able to portray a leader of the opposition as being dishonest is a way of undermining public confidence in the integrity of the impeachment process.

But Trump cannot help himself from making statements that keep his own conduct front and center. On Thursday morning, Trump stood in front of the White House, and not only said that Ukraine should investigate the Bidens, but also China.

Schiff did not personally speak to whistleblower.

Last paragraph of article:

"Trump's defenders can point fingers at the coordinated efforts of leftist institutions to take down Trump all they want. But just because people are out to get him doesn't mean he didn't do anything wrong."

This line rings kinda hollow since after two years of repeating it Trump's approvals seem to be higher than ever. But I guess they'll keep trying.

Doesn't bother me in the least. 

I expect only the pearl clutchers in the MSM and NT'ers are the ones all in a tither with bunched panties.

So you were there?  Or are you just believing Schiff's say-so?
