Paul Manafort...Impeachment 1 (Ukraine)

[Johnny2X2X]

Don’t let any Republican forget that Manafort was in Ukraine helping install a Putin puppet before he became Trump’s campaign chief.

Also, don’t let them forget Truml was impeached for threatening Zelensky with withholding the arms he needed to fight Putin with while asking Zelensky manufacture evidence to interfere in our democracy.

Manafort was doing Putin’s bidding in Ukraine. Trump was doing Putin’s bidding by withholding arms from Ukraine. Trump and Manafort support Putin taking over Ukraine.

So when you see or hear some Rightwinger suggesting this wouldn’t be happening if Trump were president, after you get done laughing say, “you serious? Trump, who tried to help Putin by weakening Ukraine and denying them arms when he was President would have stopped this? Hell, the US would be backing this invasion if Trump were in charge.”

1. Also, Manafort started the "lock her up" chant in Ukraine. And he picked Mike Pence for VP

10. Told Trump his shitty plane had mechanical issues so

He could meet and spend “quality” time with Mike. In Mob speak “its part of this “thing” of ours.”

2. Good framing!

3. BTW where is Manafort these days? Surly not in Ukraine...nt

4. "Helping them install a Putin puppet"

Also, remind people what this help entailed. Ukraine presidential candidate (at least one) poisoned; Ukrainian citizens attacked, imprisoned or killed; American service members attacked or killed.

And this was just Ukraine. Manafort didn’t likely limit his work for Putin to this one place. He is slime.

5. Drumpf...

...was gleefully disbanding NATO. That was and is Pooty's wet dream!

He would have done it if he was reelected.

Now NATO is stronger than ever. Europe now knows that they have a madman at the door threatening nuclear warfare.

Nicely played dickwad...

Oooooh...the chess master!

6. NATO is stronger than ever now

Biden held it together and this invasion has made it stronger than ever. Huge miscalculation by Russia. Trump would have pulled the US out of NATO in a second term.

8. You're correct about the second term.

He had a package of plans that most Americans would have opposed and withdrawal from NATO was one of them.

7. You're right. When they claim "this wouldn't be happening if Trump were president," what they

really mean is Trump wouldn't have taken any action to support NATO, no sanctions would have been put in place and he would be arguing for isolationism.

9. Sure, Paul Manforte did a great job but it takes a team to install a puppet

Tad Devine helped too! His next gig was to be Senator Sanders’ campaign manager.

11. I don't think that was reported by FOX News?

So, the odds are that they will know nothing about it.

Started the day TFG was elected.
