Impeachment Circular Firing Squad? See Trump’s Allies Turn On Aide Who Admitted Ukraine Plot | MSNBC

Trump’s White House is in damage control mode as they attempt to clean up Mick Mulvaney’s admittance of a quid pro quo during a press conference. Nick Akerman, former Watergate prosecutor, argues it is ‘absurd’ for the White House to ‘try to back off’ Mulvaney’s ‘terrible damning confession.’ Ackerman adds Mulvaney’s confession was ‘a very conscious effort by Donald Trump’ to have an aide ‘admit’ a crime in public to give himself ‘wiggle room.’ Aired on 10/18/19.

    1. @Maria Hartmann what kind of question is that? Do you believe everything people tell you? That has nothing to do with it. Did people believe everything Obama said? I’m afraid a lot of them did and he lied to him like me somebody who voted for him. I believe in what trumps doing for this country he has exposed the corruption in Washington. Anyone that can try to deny that they didn’t try to remove this president is sadly mistaken. You tell me one of the Democrats done since Trump’s been in office except try to remove them tell me one positive thing they’ve done for this country. You can’t because they haven’t. Your ignorance is overwhelming

    2. @Kevin stevens sorry pal I was educated in a time where there wasn’t indoctrination. You’re the only one that’s delusional because you are un educated. Tell me exactly what’s garbage accept the things you’re spewing you sound like a talking head for the mainstream media.

    3. @Kevin stevens we’ll see what a conspiracy theory is when William Barr gets done with this investigation. Your ignorance is overwhelming

    4. @aa5a9ak really what would they be saying if there was a video of trump saying that he was going to have the prosecutor removed or withhold money. Your ignorance is abundant

    1. Jay Morgan you know these two jokers Guilani & Mavelney they should open their mouths more often than we can get the truth 😂

    2. @Shah Bashah LMAO, It is comedy gold. These dumbasses just can’t help it. They just spew in front of a camera. AGAIN. AGAIN…..

    1. @Steven Dean Actually she is watching the real news. You are the one with bad sources of info. They aren’t considered news organizations at all. They are conspiracy theorists plain and simple. You are simply unable to tell what’s real or fake online. Sad really

    2. @Steven Dean 🇺🇸🙊🤔🤔😇Keep it real! Stop lying and diverting TrumPutin troll.🤔🤔🤔🇺🇸👋👋👋

    1. @H Pn You don’t need a quid pro quo…just the request!!! Read the Constitution instead of listening to what someone else said about the transcript!!! Oops, Sorry!! I just fed the troll!!!!

    2. @j walsh what crimes…name one!
      25million buck investigation said no collusion or obstruction.
      The only crime in your head…is winning an election

    3. H Pn another laughable tool troll. Read the report clown it doesn’t say what you say. Another example of our failed education system

    1. DrMossydog Hahahaha okay guy good luck taking on a military who spends more than the next ten countries combined. I’m sure you’ll make a difference

    2. @Tessmage Tessera aren’t you tough…take a chill pill
      Violence only creates more violence, I like you passion and you’re on the right side but I question your methods.

    3. @Tessmage Tessera yeah you responded to the 1st comment. Then I responded. You respond to that by saying you already responded lol. But ok. I apologize in my ignorance in thinking that a conversation/debate was a back and forth. Have a nice day.

  1. Gotta love how 99% of Republicans that agree with the impeachment are former officials. Just goes to show how spineless the GOP is right now.

  2. The father of the first original alternative facts :
    “I was not lying. I said things that later on seemed to be untrue.”
    – Richard Nixon

    1. Scrambled Eggs Because good americans are doing nothing! They will go as far as people allow them to before they wake up & act ugh :o(

    2. elc good point, unfortunately, we have now let things get so far that the evil have their own propaganda network i.e. Fox, they are organized and they have an agenda. We dems have sniveling little cowards up in Washington hiding under their desks and only peeking their head out if they think that maybe they won’t get hurt. There are so few of them that even understand what it is to do their duty but I have little hope

    3. @Mainely
      Time good americans finally make the sacrifice, flood the streets, & STAY THERE until they FORCE the @GOP to put country 1st!
      Pressure works!
      Time to stop daily routine & waiting for someone else to fix this horror!
      Please! While there’s something left to save! ENOUGH!

  3. Seems like that lawyer of TRUMPs is trying to give Trump wiggle room, while he fires guiliani ” I fired him because my lawyer suggested it.

    1. elc That’s totally fine, there are a lot of uneducated people out there that you can talk about it with. So have fun.

  4. Kevin McCarthy can’t even say Quid Pro Quo, three times he said “Quick Pro Quo”, if he can’t say it, he probably doesn’t even know what it means.
