NPR, Still Deluded After All These Years

So if you listen to NPR's account of it all, you'll learn that PajamaBoy's 'whistle' was almost 100% accurate.

Umnnnhhhh.....well, sure, if you think that LtCol Vindman's "affirmation" of PajamaBoy's account is actually worth spit.  But since Vindman told PajamaBoy the story in the first place, of course Vindman's 'testimony' backs up PajamaBoy.

Further,  Vindman's opinions about Trump's 'ask' are merely Vindman's opinions.  So what?  A lot of people have opinions.  But even NPR had to admit that Vindman's supervisor stated, flatly, that there was nothing illegal about the convo.

Then there's the old "many people...." game.  (We all know that the "many people" consist of about 3 dozen reporters who are gossiping over their doughnuts.)  So "many people" agree that Trump held up military aid to Ukraine pending his phone call.

So what?

The point is that the Ukrainian President did NOT know it was 'held up,' not that it was or was not.  The Ukraine guy couldn't care less about the "quid" because he didn't know that it existed.

Lobbyist, grifter, and Obozo Admin flunky Taylor attempted to "confirm" a q-p-q, of course, by stretching a few terms and by really stretching the content of his phone call with our EU ambassador.

NPR doesn't like the fact that the President is wholly and entirely responsible for setting foreign policy--so the reporter-ette here mentions it, but will not concede the accuracy of that statement.

Of course, NPR listeners don't know from "Constitution" anyway......which is exactly the point--and it's why NPR doesn't mention the existence of that document.
