The Impeachment Inquiry Report: You Will Laugh! You Will Cry!


So the Democratic-led House Intelligence Committee released a report Tuesday containing a summary of the evidence it collected in the impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump.


It’s 300 pages of drama! High seas adventures! Romance in the Highlands of Scotland! A tale of heartbreak and bloodshed! You will laugh! You will cry! It’s the sort of gripping yarn that cries out to be made into a smashing film!


OK, seriously. Whazzup?


The report lowers the whammy on Li’l Donnie Boy on two counts:

  1. Fucking around with Ukraine’s military aid to help Li’l Donnie with a personal favor of investigating his political rivals.
  2. Fucking around with Congress by not cooperating when they were investigating the fucking around with Ukraine’s military aid to help Li’l Donnie with a personal favor of investigating his political rivals.


Here’s what it says in the report:  “No other President has flouted the Constitution and power of Congress to conduct oversight to this extent. If left unanswered, President Trump's ongoing effort to thwart Congress' impeachment power risks doing grave harm to the institution of Congress, the balance of power between our branches of government, and the Constitutional order that the President and every Member of Congress have sworn to protect and defend."


Translation: “Man! Even Nixon didn’t suck this bad!” 


And get a load of this: "In making the decision to move forward, we were struck by the fact that the President's misconduct was not an isolated occurrence, nor was it the product of a naïve president.” 


In other words, “Shut the hell up about the goddam phone call being perfect. We are WAY beyond that!”  


So this is what the Democrats had to say on Tuesday. What did the Republicans have to say in reply to Tuesday’s report.


The Republicans delivered their rebuttal to Tuesday’s report… on Monday.


Yes, the GOP was refuting the Democrats’ report before the report was released.


It was the usual stuff


“Trump didn’t say anything.”

“If he did say something, it didn’t mean what you think it does.”

“So what? He said something. Big deal! It’s just words!”

“Trump can say what he wants! He’s President.”

“So he said something! He didn’t DO anything.”

“If he did do something, he can do what he wants! He’s President!”

“If he did do something, it didn’t work! Ukraine got their money, right?”

“We didn’t hear anything!”

“We didn’t see anything!”

“The Democrats are making this up!”

“The Democrats are a bunch of meanie heads who smell bad!”

“HAIL SATAN!”

“Wait! We didn’t say that last part!”

“What about her goddam emails?!?!” 


Are we having fun yet?
