Trump Defense: “Nuh Uh!”

January 25, 2020 By: El Jefe Category: Impeachment, Trump

The impeachment trial has adjourned for the weekend after only two hours.  Impossible to listen to for more than 2 or 3 minutes at a time, Trump’s lawyers alternated between yelling “Nuh Uh!” and lying.  In the face of a mountain of evidence, they kept repeating that Trump did nothing wrong without actually refuting any of the charges or said evidence.  It’s going to be a long 22 hours left.  The lies will be neck-deep by then.

Holy Crap!

Y’all, I just heard the tape of Trump saying to get rid of Marie Yovanovitch.

Get rid of her!” a voice appearing to belong to Trump says on the recording, according to ABC News, which on Friday first reported its existence.
“Get her out tomorrow. I don’t care. Get her out tomorrow. Take her out. OK? Do it.”

That does not sound like a firing.  That sounds like a B grade movie of a wise guys  hit.  It makes my skin crawl.

Walk It Off

Remember when Trump said there were no injuries when Iran attacked a US base in Iraq?

That’s the truth, well, except for 34 of them who have been diagnosed with Traumatic Brain Injury.

But this is a new form of TBI that isn’t actually physical and certainly isn’t serious, said Dr. Trump

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, President Donald Trump on Wednesday downplayed the injuries as “headaches.”

“I heard that they had headaches, and a couple of other things,” he said during a press conference. “But I would say, and I can report, that it is not very serious.”

According to the DOD, brain injury was “about 22% of all combat casualties from Iraq and Afghanistan.”

So, ya know, it can kill you, but hey, walk it off.  After all, what’s important?  Your brain or Trump’s perfect war?

Tell me again how much he loves the troops.

 

Susan Collins Is Playing Maine

Okay, get a load of this.

Susan Collins sent a handwritten note to Chief Justice Roberts at the end of Jerry Nadler’s speech on Tuesday night.  Minutes later, Roberts chastised both sides.

Now, imagine for a moment that a Democrat sent a secret handwritten message to the Chief Justice.  Sean Hannity would bust a vein in his neck and Moscow Mitch would start babbling hate speech in Russian.

Collins was reluctant to acknowledge any contribution to the remarkable rebuke of the parties arguing the impeachment trial. When she came off the floor about 2 a.m. ET Wednesday, a reporter told her that she was seen handing a note up to the dais, to the parliamentarian, she replied coyly: “Who me? I did that?”

She said that? She did? And she expects me not to be outraged by it?

By the way, I am delighted that Adam Schiff’s remarkable speech last night was aimed at the American people and not the Republican senators because (1) the American people understood it and (2) Collins ain’t gonna do crap and I seriously doubt that Romney will either.

 

Just Bang Me, You Hunka Hunka Burnin’ Love

Okay, y’all, Ted Cruz, that master of communication and Harvard debater, is talking about something usually left in locker rooms.  And you’d think that Sean Hannity would know that.  Not that Cruz or Hannity have ever been in a locker room, but …

 

 

No, guys, it’s pound the facts, not bang the facts. Bang means something else entirely.  You know, like mattress wrestling or getting frisky.  It means that.

However, it’ll be lots of fun to see a bunch of old white guys talk about banging facts and law.  In truth, it’s probably a confession because that’s exactly what they they are doing.

I can’t believe he said that.  He’s a lawyer, for goodness sake.
