beyond the white house response and the politics in the senate, what does it mean if u.s. presidents are allowed, with no punishment right. to ask, pressure, whatever, other countries to investigate domestic political rivals. what does that mean for american democracy? let s take the democrats argument here at face vaul value. what does it mean. it means an american president can cast about for dirt be is it real or unreal to any foreign power they wanted to and possibly use the levers of his government and taxpayers money as this document alleges the president did. this would be a terrible precedent for a american president to do this and to have foreign powers interfere in american elections and that is what you hear schiff saying over and over again. they have to draw the line here. listen, democrats didn t want to be here. pelosi was dragged here and schiff was dragged here and they hear the call of history and the call of precedent that said,

clear sign of the left s intentions to impeach the president. i don t know what they are going to charge him with. let s not talk about the constitution. that doesn t seem to matter on that process. still with us, radio talk show host steve leavy, fox news contributors doug schoen and deneen borelli. you know what? let s go to doug schoen right here. what s the strategy here? what s the plan? i mean, maxine waters, by the way, the poverty warrior that she is, has a 4.5-million-dollar mansion on 450,000 claimed income. that s another story i need to get. in what are they selling to their base, doug? they are selling resist. i m a centrist democrat. the party has moved far left. they recognize they can keep everybody together with one simple principle. resist and attack donald trump. i would have put forward an alternative tax plan. they didn t do that. now, in fairness, the republicans weren t that eager to compromise the democrats didn t want.
