One of the funniest headlines of my hometown newspaper had to do with high school wrestling: "Eagle Grapplers Look For Turnaround." Today's first Impeachment Inquiry made both parties look stupid, as high school wrestling coach Jim Jordan tried to put Adam Schiff in a headlock.
The most disturbing part of the testimony showed that Assistant Secretary of State George Kent and Ambassador William Taylor, providing professional expertise on foreign policy, and National Security Advisor John Bolton, providing bad-assery, were being made to take a backseat to E.U. Ambassador Gordon Sundland and traitorous pig Rudy Guliani, who provided only Trump-humpiness.
The story starts when Oh Blah Blah refused military aid to the Ukrainians in their efforts to repel Russian invaders. Newly elected Donald Trump was certified to release military aid by the D.O.D. in July, but apparently held up the aid until September, seeking dirt on Joe Biden from the Ukrainians. The Ukrainian President Zelinsky was also denied a prestige-boosting White House visit.
Both parties looked juvenile and partisan. Democrats looked to undo an election, while Republicans personally attacked career diplomats. Some Republicans, like Elise Stafanik, continued to act like intelligent adults. Others, like Jim Jordan and Eric Swallwell, looked more like they were vying to guest host The Sean Hannity Show. Such clowns hid behind a shyster in an ill-fitting suit, who tried to use Joe Biden's corruption as a Get Out of Jail Free card.
Political hacks like Sundland and Guliani have no business being allowed to make foreign policy decisions. This is an effect of an administration where syncophants are valued over experts. This looks just as corrupt as Rod Blagojevich selling Obama's Senate seat. Which probably explains why Trump wants to pardon Blagojevich.
