In watching all President Trump’s appearances in the past 24 hours, and reading the summary of that famous phone call with President Zelenskyy of Ukraine, it’s clear what’s really going on.

Ross: Are you ready for some prime impeachment TV?

Despite finally getting his wall, despite the great economy, despite the breakthrough with China (that will happen any moment…) the president was willing to risk impeachment to get foreign help finding Hillary Clinton’s emails! Which he believes could be on a server hidden somewhere in Ukraine.

“Mr President do you believe that the emails from Hillary Clinton – do you believe that they are in Ukraine,” a reporter asked the president Wednesday.

“I think they could be,” Trump said. “You mean the 30,000 that she deleted?”

“Yes.”

“Yeah, I frankly think that is one of the great crimes committed is Hillary Clinton, deleting 33,000 emails after Congress sent her a subpoena. Think of that!

President Zelenskyy, you would be doing a service to mankind if would just produce those damn emails.

I realize your country is almost the size of Texas, but if you went on TV and asked every citizen to take a moment, check under the bed, behind the dresser, the back of the refrigerator, then they might just turn up. We’re begging you.

Because until you find those emails, your phone, like our ears, will just keep ringing.

Do this, President Zelensky, and as an American taxpayer I will support sending you tanks, planes, Netflix subscriptions, iPhone 11s, anything you want.
