What a President and a demagogue sound like
Republicans like to point to Bill Clinton when defending Trump's actions. And there was a lot wrong with Clinton and his behavior. But the differences in the two men were never more clear when looking at the two men's reactions after they were acquitted by the Senate. Here are the two reactions. First Clinton Second Trump
Now comes the retributions for people opposing Trump. Listen at the 7-minute point in this link to Vindman's testimony and hear how what he describes as what happens in Russia now happens in the United States. Trump's friend Putin is now his model for how to deal with people who stand up against you. People thought it was going overboard when many of us re-read Orwell's 1984 book when Trump was elected. It doesn't seem that way anymore.
