My claim is that the aid was ultimately not withheld, which is an objective fact.
As far as the impeachment, if you don't see this as nakedly partisan, then I would advise you to try and expand the perspectives you look at current events from.
- epakai 4y agoIt has nothing to do with partisanship when a President pressures a foreign aid recipient to announce an investigation into his political rival. It was just plain wrong. That the outcome of the Senate trial was partisan has more to do with party politics. Republican Senators weren't on the floor arguing that Trump did the right thing. They intentionally worked to minimize how much of the trial was able to reach the news cycle because they also knew what occurred was wrong. The whole thing was over in 4 days and it was run on a weekend to minimize exposure. You might recall the upset over how the Senate even voted to not call witnesses.
