Don't Fall For The Okie Doke: Trump Impeachment Lynching Remark An Attempt To Distract From Ukraine

Donald Trump is always describing investigations into his actions as witch-hunts and coups, but today he chose a much stronger word to describe the current impeachment inquiry. The nation's complainer-in-chief tweeted, "So some day, if a Democrat becomes President and the Republicans win the House, even by a tiny margin, they can impeach the President, without due process or fairness or any legal rights. All Republicans must remember what they are witnessing here - a lynching. But we will WIN!" Don't be fooled ... Trump is a master of distraction. While we were outraged by Trump's lynching comment, Bill Taylor, the acting US ambassador to Ukraine, said during his testimony to the House committees investigating impeachment that everything including the release of military aid to Ukraine, was tied to Ukraine President Zelensky publicly announcing investigations into Joe Biden and the 2016 election. Don't fall for the okie doke ... Trump is trying to distract the American people.
