It was obvious that the impeachment inquiry was one-sided. The chairmen of the House of Representative Government Oversight and the Judiciary committees acted one-sided on behalf of the Democrats. They packed the witness box with people who were not impartial, who spread their own opinions which were not backed by written documents or other means. What they reported was their own assumptions and presumptions and what the Democrats wanted to hear.
This all started by a phone call between President Trump and the newly elected president of Ukraine on July 25. It was a congratulations call and other topics but no requests. It was supposed, by some eavesdroppers, that President Trump asked that the Ukraine president to investigate Hunter Biden because former Vice President Biden was a candidate for president. However, at that time Vice President Biden had not declared his candidacy.
If a person was about to plan a clandestine operation he/she would ensure nobody could hear the conversation by secluding themselves. How did the eavesdroppers listen in on president’s conversation? Also, how close were they to the president and through how many doors did the words have to go. The further a person who is eavesdropping in on a conversation, the less they can hear clearly.
The Democrats have not revealed the identity of the so-called eavesdroppers for their safety, however the Secret Service and FBI have protected many people before and will continue. The accused has a right, according to our Constitution, to face their accusers. This should have priority over questionable safety of eavesdroppers.
From the time that President Trump appeared to be the Republican candidate, the Democrats have planned to ensure that his term would be a failure. When their candidate, who they were sure would win because she was a career politician, lost to a non-politician they were dumbfounded. Their candidate lost by a large margin. This infuriated all of the Democrats who then plotted against President Trump a business man.
President Trump has moved our economy to new heights with record employment, lower unemployment, new heights for the stock market, less red tape, lower taxes, more minority employed, less dependence on imports from other countries just to name a few. All of these accomplishments while the House of Representative doing nothing except trying to unseat the duly elected president at a huge spending of taxpayers’ money which could have been used to provide housing for the homeless, etc.
You can see how retained hatred can affect so many people. The Democrats say they are an inclusive party but their actions support otherwise.
