Democrat impeachment report exposes the weakness of their case

Jenna Ellis:

The Democrat impeachment report is an even bigger nothing-burger than the highly anticipated Mueller Report was in June, exposing the politically motivated effort to remove President Trump from office as the farce it really is.

Contrary to the liberal media’s portrayal of the report as an open-and-shut case against the president, the Democrats have produced the weakest rationale for impeaching a U.S. president in history. The “radical Republicans” of the Reconstruction era are rightly condemned by history for contriving the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson on purely political (and unconstitutional) grounds — but at least they bothered to contrive an actual crime to justify their partisan effort to remove a president from office, which is more than can be said of today’s Democrats.

Here are four key takeaways from their impeachment report that are worth considering now that the House has voted to send its flimsy articles of impeachment to the Senate.

1. “Collusion” with Russia is the hoax that just won’t die

If you thought that former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report would be the end of the Democrats’ obsession with the Russia collusion hoax, you were mistaken. House Democrats revived the long-debunked collusion myth to argue that “Trump has fallen into a pattern of behavior: this is not the first time he has solicited foreign interference in an election.”

In support of that ridiculous claim, the report references President Trump’s joke about Russia releasing the hacked Hillary Clinton emails during the 2016 campaign, completely ignoring the fact that Mueller and his team “did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.”

2. Abuse of power is nonexistent

Despite its length, the 658-page impeachment document doesn’t present much in the way of direct evidence and substance. In fact, the Democrats were so starved for evidence that they were forced to draft only two articles of impeachment: abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. Neither, notably, relates to either the “quid pro quo” allegation that served as the original basis for the impeachment inquiry or the “bribery” allegation that Democrats concocted in hopes of swaying public opinion in their favor. Instead, they are relying on subjective allegations designed to create the perception of wrongdoing without the need to present any evidence of an actual crime. “Abuse of power” is a very grave accusation, but the impeachment report reveals that it’s based on nothing more than the Democrats’ insistence that President Trump should never have been elected in the first place.

3. Obstruction of Congress is a contrived charge

The preposterous claim that President Trump “obstructed Congress” is even weaker than the claim that he abused his power. In their report, the impeachment-crazed Democrats argue that “President Trump did everything in his power to obstruct the House’s impeachment inquiry,” citing his refusal to participate in his own political crucifixion as evidence.

4. Moderate Democrats are being thrown under the bus

Democrats who campaigned as moderates in districts that voted for President Trump in 2016 will be the most obvious collateral damage from Pelosi’s impeachment debacle. Polling shows that widespread disgust over the politically motivated farce is enhancing Donald Trump’s appeal, especially among swing-state voters, and vulnerable Democrats who side with party leaders on this issue will undoubtedly face a backlash at the polls next November. Honoring the will of their constituents is equally risky, though, since any Democrat who votes against impeachment will likely be defeated by a primary challenger who reflects the unhinged Trump-hatred of the party’s radical base.

The Democrat leadership is either delusional are dishonest in making these things the basis for their coup attempt.  They are giving their credibility over to a Liar like Adam Schiff.  The voters should punish them for such lies and nonsense.
