Opinion: Smoke and mirrors are Trump's only defense against impeachment (via latimesopinion)
the president’s overtures to Ukraine and China. Trump’s like a brawler in a bar fight, wildly swinging his fists in hopes of hitting someone, anyone.
Trump’s denials of wrongdoing and attempts to blur reality are part of his effort to seize the narrative of the fast-moving impeachment inquiry. The president andthat, because he did not explicitly condition the release of U.S. military aid on Zelensky granting his request for a Ukrainian investigation into the Bidens, there was nothing untoward about the request, and nothing to impeach over.
But that is nothing but smoke. The request itself was the problem, as was Trump’s double-down a little later when he asked China to investigate Biden and his son’s conduct there — giving a presidential imprimatur to what are little more than conspiracy theories. It’s astounding that so many Republicans — both elected officials and the voters who still support the president — are so willing to shrug off such an egregious act. The left often gets accused of “Trump derangement syndrome,” supposedly so blinded by their hatred of the president that they have dissolved into lunacy.What’s the name for the condition of folks so blinded by loyalty and conspiracy theories that they think they see the emperor’s clothes? That’s a kind of derangement, too.
