So, this rebuttal is short, easy to understand, and exceptionally well written..But, the truth is :
..Most people have 5 minutes to listen and watch all of this.
(not just part, but all of the speech)

Most important parts will fit on any news show. There is nothing complicated. He uses the term, "It is not OK"
that this was done, and that was done. It is brilliant because it was short, simple and everyone understands what was said. If you haven't heard it, it is on the front page of DU. And it is 5 minutes and 10 seconds

Great speeches are short and easy to understand. Everyone understands the great ones.
....Four Score and 7 years ago...etc...3 minutes
....To be or not to be.........about 5 minutes

Short and to the point. This is a game changer. It is all there. Even the republican attempt to interrupt at the end is there. Finally, and perhaps most important, this is the truth. No lies. What a contrast to Trump.
