Trump’s ask of Zelensky was so grave that both the CIA general counsel, Courtney Simmons Elwood, and the general counsel at the National Security Council, John Eisenberg, decided the accusations had a “reasonable basis” and together called the Justice Department on Aug. 14 to discuss how to handle them. Elwood reportedly intended this call to be a criminal referral about the president’s conduct. Later in August, the Acting Director of National Intelligence and Inspector General for the Intelligence Community referred the allegations to the Justice Department as a possible criminal matter. This means that upon learning of Trump’s ask alone (forget everything else we’ve learned), multiple senior government lawyers, all appointed by Trump, were worried the president had committed a crime.
Do these Trump appointees have TDS?

OK, OK, some were "worried" about a possibility. Some are not. So goes politics and investigations. So the Senate will decide. Good luck with that.
In the meantime, did you watch the video? Probably a dumb question since you said you don't watch the videos I post. But, I know it's asking too much from you since you're so massively infused with hate for Trump and must use any and every occasion to inform us about it . . . but I will kindly ask anyway. Will you please, if you don't watch a video, please refrain from commenting on it, or worse, please don't inject some other subjects into the thread. If you don't want to discuss the video, just stay out of the thread. Please.
