4) Warning to House: if you impeach me, Ill burn every American alliance and interest before I go

Geez . . . you left out a lot of other "possibilities," many favorable to Trump's motives. But, I understand--rumors, possibility, maybe, conjecture, innuendo, could be, perhaps--these figure deeply in how you come to conclusions. But why are these verbal nebulae re you're analyses of Trump always selected from a negative point of view?

There is a term for the exchange of U.S. intelligence or, worse, policy for money: espionage.

OK. Quit being vague. Are you accusing Trump of espionage?

I apparently left it out of the negative possibilities.
It's more of a possibility that he did that than his accusations of committing Treason that he has made of many of his opponents, though I assume you will say he was trolling the media, misconstrued, misspoke or out of context.
What other memorandum of telecom are hidden in the code word server?
Just what was discussed in his meeting with Putin?
In the Oval office meeting with Russia's foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, and ambassador to the US Sergey Kislyak?

Ah! I see. You're accusing him of a possibility.

And those possibilities are why there is an inquiry in the House.
