Today, Rep Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) is hoping to move up the ladder of Trump social prestige:
FIRST ON FOX: Oklahoma GOP U.S. Senate candidate Rep. Markwayne Mullin Tuesday is introducing a resolution to expunge former President Donald Trump’s first impeachment – saying Democrats didn’t prove “high crimes and misdemeanors.”
Mullin’s nine-page resolution, if passed by the House, would declare “expunged” Trump’s 2019 impeachment over allegedly leveraging U.S. military aid to Ukraine for political favors involving investigations of the Bidens. It accused Democrats of “flippantly exercising one of the gravest and most consequential powers with which the House of Representatives is charged.” [Fox News]
If we all stamp our feet and howl loudly at the moon, our beloved Leader’s criminal act will have never happened!
It must be noted that this is also another sordid attempt at moral equality, as it accuses the Democrats of ‘flippancy’ when it comes to impeachment proceedings. However, an official expungement is not the same as disproving the actual accusations, but is more along the lines of a pardon.
Yeah, he did it. In order to salve our hurt feelings, let’s officially forget about it.
