understand what bribery is. We need to think of the average US citizen and their mind-set.

Schiff has very measured, well thought out answers to all of the questions posed, and he approaches the subject matter as one who is concerned for his country and the people in it, not politics.

Impeachment was a mechanism not to punish but to protect the country going forward.


This is the right way to approach it, by not allowing opposition to frame this as a man hunt. It's about the office of the President itself, and the duty of Congress when that office is abused.
