US PoliEra 2019 |OT8| WHITE HOUSE ADMITS TO QUID PRO QUO WITH UKRAINE

So it seems like support for impeachment is going to converge with his approval rating pretty quick. Even just that isn't enough to get a conviction in the senate, it will be enough for a 2020 disaster for reps
There goes the media again being so mean to Bernie and so nice to Warren.

Interesting, thanks
It's kind of insane how almost everyone accepts he's craven af and... some people don't care at alll
Funny enough, my political science undergrad culminated in 2008 with a seminar analyzing the last century of Russian politics. My term paper proposed Russia as the crux of modern foreign policy owing to its oddly large outreach into all corners of the globe - the US and Europe but also the Middle East and China - as well as Putin's continued influence and its social issues.
I have a steady streak of regret not following that up as grad work given how things went.
Now that model of scandal is making me wonder if there isn't a good way to expand on it in a larger work.
Not sure if these count as two separate polls. But Steyer and Yang will probably qualify for debate 5.
Maybe Booker.
Also comparison:
2008 Primary:
Winthrop/ETV Poll
October 7–28, 2007
Clinton 33.0%
Obama 22.7%
Edwards 9.6%
Biden 2.4%
Richardson 0.4%
Dodd 0.4%
Kucinich 0.0%
Gravel 0.0%
undecided 29.6%
2016 Primary
CNN/ORC
October 3–10, 2015
Hillary Clinton 49%
Joe Biden 24%
Bernie Sanders 18%
Martin O'Malley 3%
Someone else 1%
None/No one 1%
No opinion 4%
Biden's 21 pt lead is better than Hillary 08, but worse than Hillary 16 .. against Biden.
Maybe Booker.

.@SteveScalise tells @chucktodd: President Trump is asking for a "favor" in looking into Russia's interference in the 2016 campaign. He wasn't talking about Joe Biden or Hunter Biden when he referred to a "favor."

Just to be clear here: the President's insane request to look into "Crowdstrike" wasn't about *Russian* interference, but rather a bonkers conspiracy theory that Russia, was framed by Ukrainian interests. https://twitter.com/Yamiche/status/1178297832798871554 …

Tom Bossert said the Crowdstrike/DNC/Ukraine story is "completely false" and has "no validity." Says he and others told Trump that, but that Rudy continues to push it. #ThisWeek

How long until the DNC gives people the top 3 candidate debate we all want?
I kind of love the fact that all these formerly respected Republicans are willing to burn their reputations to protect this man. Scalise has always been a slimey racist PoS but like Giuliani he was able to channel a tragedy into goodwill.
That 17% must be his absolute rock bottom, the cultiest of the cult who would gladly shoot themselves in the face if he told them to.
"He's the last hope for white people."
BANG
Well, the November debates will still have Biden, Warren, Sanders, Buttigieg and Harris.
Yang and Steyer need one more poll.
Booker needs two more polls, but hasn't announced enough donors yet.
Klobuchar and O'Rourke need three more polls.
So I imagine that will still be an 8 or 9 person affair.
Almost makes me miss DWS. Which I thought I would never say.
He went too far in the other direction after last cycle's complaints

Booker announces on CNN that he has crossed the 165,000 unique donor threshold for the Novemeber debates.

These people should just throw their money out the window, it would have the same effect without wasting time on the debate stage.
Booker is meant to quit if he doesn't raise $1.7 million or something anyway.
Also... lol
Also... lol
I don't know if he should really be reminding people that underlying Trump's impeachment is his son cashing in on the Biden name and political position.
That was probably bullshit to drum up donations.
He isn't dropping out if he's making November.
The only embarrassing part about it was him caving into, surprise surprise, the Sanders camp.
After primaries begin and steyers and Booker's drop out.
Lol, who is opening an email with the subject line "Disgusting"
How long before we get a leaked RNC email "Why is Jake Tapper such a dick?"
When they show how easy it is to do this it just makes it more frustrating the 95% of the time that they don't.
They know how to do this, they just choose not to, ever.
Less than a week in and they've already managed to dilute the narrative even among liberals I see.
It wasn't quid pro quo, it was extortion. He illegally withheld aid allocated by Congress for Ukraine's defense against an invasion. He asked for a "favor" in the same way the Mafia does, with a fucking gun to the head.

Dude on state media asked a question Donald didn't like:

Trump departs White House wearing his golf attire — white polo shirt, khakis, and red hat — midway through the Sunday morning politics shows.
Stephen Miller was on Fox; Rudy Giuliani, Adam Schiff, Tom Bossert on ABC. Giuliani and Lindsey Graham coming up on CBS.
Trump, while in motorcade to golf course, does more than 18 tweets or retweets criticizing Fox News' Ed Henry.

Is @realDonaldTrump, the President of the United States, name searching Ed Henry and retweeting whatever negative stuff he finds?

----------------------------
Mark Levin is such a hack, he was screaming at Ed Henry who asked a simple question, Levin yelling asking why the media aren't looking into anything and everything except Trump. Henry was good here and kept persistently asking though and that has to be what Trump is upset about.
Also:
It's going to be interesting to see how much those polls change once Kurt Volker testifies and if his testimony confirms the aid was held up for leverage. It is a shame that we have to wait for Thursday in order for that to happen.

Those are terrible for Trump considering the damning details are only going to get worse as the hearings begin.
