Optics:
Mick Mulvaney admits to the president’s Quid Pro Quo, saying it’s how business is done and to just “get over it.
Mitch McConnell declares, before a trial date is set, that the president’s acquittal is a foregone conclusion and that he will coordinate the trial “hand in hand” with the White House.
Defense:
Apparently, “Yeah, he did it, so what? And while he didn’t actually do it, there wasn’t any wrongdoing anyway and regardless, his actions are above the law, but that Joe Biden guy . . . someone ought to ask him about his son’s Involvement with organized crime figures in the Ukraine. That’s where the focus should be. And then we need to figure out why Hillary is still out running free when she should be locked up alongside Shifty Schiff and Nancy Pelosi.“
Conclusion:
It’s a swamp all right, but not the one El Cheato campaigned to drain.
