Desperate Democrats Dig Deep: "Throwing Joe Biden Under The Bus"

• https://www.zerohedge.com by Raul Meijer

After 2+ years of her fellow party members and Congress(wo)men riding on the now-defunct Robert Mueller train and clamoring non-stop for impeachment of Donald Trump, the man who stole the 2016 election from their candidate, God's own candidate Hillary, the one who deserved to win, after 2+ years Nancy Pelosi does a 180 and joins the chorus. So as not to end up as fish food.

And sure, if she's finally spotted an impeachable offense, that would make sense. But she herself states she joined because of Trump's phone call with Ukraine's Zelensky, and we know Pelosi doesn't know what was said in that call, nor what's in the opaque whistleblower complaint linked to it, a complaint moreover that's based solely on hearsay.

Making the contents of the call public would set a dangerous precedent, because no foreign leader would ever again speak freely to a US president. Even sharing it 'only' with Capitol Hill would make them cautious. In that regard, the White House reluctance to share both the call and the complaint makes a lot of sense.

We're talking many decades of carefully crafted tradition, whose importance cannot be overestimated. Wars have been avoided by these calls. But then again, as Trump said, he's sure everybody and their pet intelligence hamster is listening in the talks already, so what's the use anymore?
