Reasonable Minds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I watched every minute of the Intelligence Committee open hearings.  While I can\u2019t say I read every word of the thousands of pages of transcripts from the closed hearings, I did read a lot of them.  At the end of the day (that was Thursday) the evidence was overwhelming, clear and convincing:  the President of the United States tried to use US aid money and a White House meeting to force a Ukrainian investigation of Joe Biden and the 2016 Election.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Republican side of the Committee refused to participate in honest fact finding.  They spent most of their time in obfuscation, throwing out de-bunked conspiracy theories, and attacking honorable witnesses like Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman, Foreign Service Officer David Holmes, and former NSC executive Fiona Hill.  And they spent hours and hours trying to convince Americans to \u201cnot believe your lying eyes.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They were successful.  They maintained that segment of American society dedicated to supporting the President.  That was their goal:  hold onto the base.  The last Real Clear Politics average showed the nation almost evenly divided, with 48% in favor of impeachment\/removal, and 46% against.  This mirrors the Presidential approval poll, that shows 53% of Americans disapprove of Trump, and 44% approve (RCP<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201creasonable minds\u201d test failed.  A reasonable mind would recognize that the President is guilty.  A reasonable mind would move to the next question:  is what the President did worthy of removal from office.  But we are not in an era of \u201creasonable minds\u201d.  Ask Republican Congressman Will Hurd of Texas, who spent most of the hearings straddling the fence. Even he was finally forced to \u201cstand with the President\u201d in the last couple days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Post-Truth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In 2004 author Ralph Keyes<\/a> coined the term \u201cpost-truth era.\u201d  The impeachment inquiry is just the latest example of a segment of Americans simply ignoring facts; somehow thinking that it\u2019s \u201cOK\u201d to choose their reality, as if ordering a Big Mac rather than McNuggets.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps some day we will be in a \u201cpost Fox News\u201d era.\u00a0\u00a0Rupert Murdock found that there were huge profits in taking \u201ctabloid journalism\u201d and cloaking it in respectability.\u00a0\u00a0He wasn\u2019t the first to do it:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u201cYellow Journalism\u201d led the United States into the Spanish American War in the 1890\u2019s.\u00a0\u00a0But Fox\u2019s \u201cFair and Balanced News\u201d projected what a segment of Americans wanted to hear.\u00a0\u00a0It was their Big Mac.\u00a0\u00a0Facts had little to do with it.\u00a0\u00a0Fox sowed the seeds for a Trump-like TV candidate to grow and flourish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFake News\u201d has been the battle cry of the Trump Campaign since the tragic moment he came down the golden escalator.  But like much of what the President does and says, it is just another example of \u201cprojection\u201d.  Mr. Trump takes his own illegal or unacceptable actions, and \u201cprojects\u201d them onto others.  The most recent example:  Trump tried to bribe and extort Ukraine for help in the 2020 election:  he claims that what Biden did was the same thing.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Super Powers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The true Trump \u201csuper power\u201d is his ability to convince others that his projections are real.  It helps him that others in authority \u201cdouble down\u201d on those projections.  Attorney General Bill Barr is on his quixotic international quest to disprove Russian interference in the 2016 election, while this week his Inspector General again reaffirms that truth.  And Senator Lindsey Graham is now using his Senate Committee to look for \u201cCounter Strike\u201d and investigate his close friend, Biden. They both have lent their \u201cgood name\u201d (what little they have left) to legitimize these fables. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advertisers will tell you that it takes five repetitions to sell a concept.\u00a0\u00a0Even as I write this essay, the President is on \u201cFox and Friends\u201d repeating more false charges:\u00a0\u00a0from President Obama spying on him to Ukrainian election interference to a \u201cnew\u201d Apple Mac computer factory in Texas (that opened six years ago).\u00a0\u00a0The Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee ignored witnesses to chant their \u201cfake news\u201d litanies.\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s all to hold onto the minds of the base. And it works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Fifth Avenue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I can\u2019t see any \u201cfact\u201d that will change the true \u201cTrumper\u201d mind.\u00a0\u00a0It is easy to wish for a \u201csilver bullet,\u201d maybe John Bolton\u2019s testimony in a Senate Trial, which might alter the equation.\u00a0\u00a0But should John Bolton testify, the Trump\/Fox machine will simply send him \u201cunder the bus\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0Even if it convinces Republican Senators, it won\u2019t change the political equation they face: stand with the President, or end their political careers.\u00a0\u00a0It seems no one in this post-truth era is a Profile in Courage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donald J. Trump, forty-fifth President of the United States, will be the third President to face an impeachment trial in the Senate.  My cloudy \u201ccrystal ball\u201d shows him surviving a Senate trial.  And then the election of 2020 will really be on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Democrats will need to find their own \u201csuper power\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0It should be easy:\u00a0\u00a0the majority of Americans will vote for the Democrat, just like in 2016.\u00a0\u00a0Get out the vote, continue the Democratization of the suburbs, and it should result in a win.\u00a0\u00a0But that\u2019s what we thought last time too.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Democrats do have a weapon to capture the middle, those suburbs and \u201csoccer moms\u201d.  They have the facts:  a President committing bribery. And they have the law: bribery, high crimes and misdemeanors.  Now Democrats need to beat on the table loud enough to make sure Americans know it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
