Would expect a scathing op-Ed by Peggy Noonan in the weekend WSJ.
There are plenty of people, like me, who thought the Russian collusion narrative was bullshit. An attempt to “correct” the electorate’s mistake. My opinion on that has not changed.
However, it is sad and depressing that a President would try to strong-arm a desperate guy like the Ukrainian President in such a way...all for dirt on a political rival. It’s totally awful if true. The case isn’t proven, yet. But if that is what happened I wouldn’t be surprised if this all proceeds very quickly.
Again, what a moronic self-inflicted wound...for something that wouldn’t have helped much anyway. Just so dumb...
