    • Democrats seem to be using the word "scheme" quite a lot in today's hearing. It must have polled well in their focus groups!

        • They tried "quid pro quo", but that didn't play well, so they settled on "bribery"... now they're saying "scheme".

          They're gonna keep trying until something sticks!

            That is your choice, but realize you just spat in the face of an honest effort to try to understand why we see things so differently.

                Nonsense, they used quid pro quo all day to descibe the nature of Trumps scheme in the very same hearings.

                  All 3 phrases/words apply almost equally well, depending on which aspect of what was done is being discussed.

                    Because imprecise language and equivocation is exactly what you want to hear when considering the very serious matter of impeaching a US president.

                    Look, I get that you guys hate Trump, but even you have to acknowledge that the Democrats are playing fast and loose here.

                          No. What they are saying is "abuse of power" and "obstruction of Congress". That covers the lot.

                            It looks like that's what they've settled on, two vague and amorphous terms that don't describe any actual crimes. In fact, Democrats are claiming that "abuse of power" and "obstruction of Congress" can refer to perfectly legal acts that are done with the "wrong" motives.

                            This thing is turning into a bigger farce than I think anybody could have predicted.

                              Don't worry your pretty little head Tass, Trump is not going anywhere...
