George Kent and Bill Taylor's Testimony Was Devastating

By Robert Reich, Robert Reich's Facebook Page

15 November 19

 

oday the House conducted the first public hearings in the impeachment inquiry, and Republicans behaved just as expected. The juxtaposition between George Kent and Bill Taylor, two career public servants dedicated to protecting our nation's security, and Ranking Member Devin Nunes, a partisan hack job spouting conspiracy theories, was striking. While the witnesses laid out a clear pattern of abuse of power and Democrats used that testimony to construct a powerful, convincing narrative of Trump's corruption, Republicans parroted right-wing conspiracies and made baseless procedural arguments in an effort to prove their loyalty to Trump. Without a legal or factual leg to stand on in defending their Dear Leader, it immediately became clear that Republicans’ main goal was to demonstrate their ultimate fealty to Trump. I hope the American public was able to see through their tactics and fully understand the devastating testimony of George Kent and Bill Taylor.
