LMAO, Again. No longer is it Quid Pro Quo..............It's moved on to Bribery. You'd think that roughly half of the folks would want to quit being led by these losers, you'd think anyways. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Schiff: Trump could be impeached for bribery By Zack Budryk - 11/12/19 06:55 PM EST House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) suggested President Trump’s possible impeachable offenses include bribery in an interview set to air Wednesday with NPR’s Steve Inskeep. "On the basis of what the witnesses have had to say so far, there are any number of potentially impeachable offenses: including bribery, including high crimes and misdemeanors," Schiff said in the interview. "The basic allegations against the president are that he sought foreign interference in a U.S. election, that he conditioned official acts on the performance of these political favors." In the interview, Schiff said bribery, one of the offenses the Constitution outlines as impeachable, had a different meaning at the time the Constitution was written than how it is commonly understood today. “It was much broader. It connoted the breach of the public trust in a way where you're offering official acts for some personal or political reason, not in the nation's interest,” Schiff said. “Here you have the president of the United States seeking help from Ukraine in his reelection campaign in the form of two investigations that he thought were politically advantageous, including one of his primary rival.” “It doesn't have to be cash. It can be something of value,” Schiff added, saying that conditioning foreign aid on political favors could be considered bribery even in the modern context. “And clearly, given the concerted effort that was brought about to get these investigations going by the president, by Rudy Giuliani, by Ambassador [Gordon] Sondland, by others, this was something of great value to the president,” he said. These comments from Schiff follow a marked shift in the rhetoric used by Democrats to describe what they believe are impeachable offenses committed by President Trump. As the public hearings draw nearer, Schiff and others have sharpened the language they use to speak about the president, dropping the phrase "quid pro quo" and centering their argument around more caustic, widely used terminology such as "bribery" and "extortion." House Democrats opened the impeachment inquiry in late September after a whistleblower filed a complaint alleging that during a July 25 call, Trump urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to launch an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden.

They switched to bribery, because that's the verbiage used in the impeachment statute.

Although Trump is crying like a pussy on twitter this morning it doesn't seem to be working. They're still impeaching him.
Maybe he should cry harder. Give it the good ol' college try and cry even harder. Maybe that'll make the useless weakling feel better.
Go on Donald, cry harder, loser.

As each one of their accusations fail they come up with another. They will keep this up until they are either hauled off to jail or sent packing after the 2020 elections so rolling horseshit can find something else to bitch about.

This Taylor now testifying, is a santimonious POS & every single thing that he has said is all 2nd or 3rd hand hearsay & he even admits verbatim, that what was being done was not done as & with no expectation of being a QPQ, but the implication is that that particular piece of hearsay wasn't credible....................but of course, all the other hearsay, is credible.

MM He ain't "testifying to anything. He's reading the script the Commies stayed up many nights writing... Exactly, he had a prepared written answer to every question Goldman asked and read the answer verbatim. He never once looked at his notes in his answer to the republican lawyer's questions. Also, did anyone notice the facial characteristics of Kent. He reminded me of Strzok Stoke Smirk? ![[Linked Image from rushlimbaugh.com]](https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/APP-071318-Strzok-005.jpg) [img][/img]
