No, it's right, he made the attempt and he failed...that is the crime...check it out...there are enough lawyers in congress to say....there is no grounds ...on both sides...that was never the issue
The whole impeachment process is a farce ...he was impeached....that is the House responsibility...but IMO no president will ever be removed from office through the trial process by the senate

there is no "well left" in politics ....you go from centre to left of centre to progressive/far left

Wrong on both accounts Steve.
A farce made possible only because a dem majority had the votes.
Trump's threat was too "veiled," to be prosecutable anywhere except a farcical kangaroo congress.
Had it been Biden or Hillary doing exactly the same, you would be arguing my side of the issue...and I would be agreeing with you.
You know that's true.

Though outwardly obstinate, I want to be optimistic and believe that I am making progress with your growth. LOL
Have a good weekend.
