Conservative talker.
Ben Shapiro is typically not correct about
things, but yesterday he actually came pretty
close to being right about something.
Here it is.
"when it comes to scandals, when it comes
to president Trump came up with a plan.
The plan was deployed Rudy Giuliani to uncover
the specific corruption of Joe Biden and then
leveraging the Ukrainian government to help
Rudy Giuliani to go after this specific corruption
of Joe Biden.
Because the man he has a Gimlet eyed, sharp
eyed, steely, steely missile man, eyed plan.
He is just going to carry that, that here's
the best events.
No, right.
This is the best.
The best of it.
It is.
No, you gotta be kidding.
No, that's, this is not a dude with a plan.
And the problem for Republicans there not
allowed to say that, that's the problem for
Republicans is that if you're a Republican
Senator and you say that Trump might attack
you."
Now listen, I wholeheartedly agree with Ben
Shapiro that Donald Trump is not a guy who
has plans.
And the implication of that as well is that
Donald Trump is not a smart guy because he
really is, at least in the capacity that he
is at now.
This isn't a smart guy.
He doesn't know what the hell he's doing.
I guarantee you he doesn't know that most
of the laws he's broken are actually laws.
He's not allowed to break, but Ben Shapiro
is mistaken if he thinks this is going to
be a good defense for the president.
And again, I also agree with Ben Shapiro that
Republicans also think this, that he's a bit
too nutty to understand what's going on, but
I don't think he's too nutty or crazy or stupid
to know that he broke the law and yeah, sure.
We're hearing all the time has been points
out that there's whispers from Republicans,
Oh, if it was held today and we didn't have
to put our names on it, we'd all vote to remove
him from office.
Yeah.
I don't know how much I buy into that.
I know there's rumors of it, but what we're
seeing publicly is a lot of Republicans either
defend it or keep their mouths completely
shut.
But again, this isn't a viable defense.
I mean, you couldn't walk into court representing
a defendant who had been accused of a crime
and stand up and say, your honor, ladies and
gentlemen of the jury, this man is an idiot.
I mean, look at him, look how dumb he is,
is of course he couldn't have committed a
crime.
He's borderline mentally challenged.
No, that's not a defense folks.
And it certainly isn't for the president of
the United States.
There's obvious signs of mental decline there.
But he knew what he was doing.
He may not have had a plan to do it, as Shapiro
says, but he absolutely asked on that phone
call, I need a favor.
I need a favor.
And that favor was dig up dirt on his political
rival or else you're probably not gonna get
this aid money that we've already approved
for you.
So if you want it, you know what you gotta
do.
It doesn't matter how dumb the man is, how
many plans he doesn't have.
That is a thing that he did.
That's the quid pro quo.
That is the violation of election laws seeking
something from a foreign government to help
your campaign.
That's the illegal part.
Those are the laws that he broke and no amount
of conservative talking head saying no, Trump's
too stupid to know what he did is going to
change that.
The president broke the law.
