Pretty sure that was a staffer, not an elected member...but these staffers should also quit if that’s how they feel.

I'm sure it was as well, but the same applies to the elected members. Most of them are not idiots, they know the scoop, its just theatrics to ensure their reelection.

Shorter Jordan: If you fart in a room, someone enters it then tells someone else, that fart did in fact not occur at all.

And Jim Jordan with the self-fulfilling prophecy and goal post moving. Trump shouldn't be impeached because aid was withheld, it's because he asked for a favor and threatened withholding aid. Whether or not it "happened" is entirely irrelevant.

Well the GOP are looking like children in this hearing so I can understand why Gym Jordan is getting uneasy.

The problem is it doesn't matter what they look like or what they say. Lines have already been drawn and sides chosen. Very few people are going to flip no matter what actually is said/done today.

I was wrong about the Republican defense of Trump. I thought it would be bad but it turns out that it's astoundingly awful, beyond all salvation.

I'm smelling napalm in the morning.

Wait, what? The last guy's argument was "Trump gave Ukraine more weapons than Obama!" ... what the fuck?

Again with the "well he got the aid without delivering, so it's not a problem!" It's really unfortunate that this absurd argument will work for a large portion of Americans.

It's exactly as it was during Dr. Ford testimony. Nothing new for GOP.

Media just needs to keep this simple -

If your wife's boss asks her to give him a blowjob or she loses her job, but she doesn't actually give the blowjob because HR found out about the demand...it's still a crime.

Nicely done.
