Trump’s Defenses Are Collapsing
Political Wireby Taegan Goddard

Greg Sargent: “Donald Trump’s explicitly declared position in the scandal consuming his presidency is that pressuring a foreign power to ‘investigate’ a leading domestic political opponent absolutely falls within his rightfully exercised authority. Trump has said this, and so has his White House counsel, making this the White House’s official political, substantive and legal position.”

“But this defense is cracking up. That’s because we’re now learning, one after another, that all of the people around him knew that it was grievously wrong — that is, all except for those who were carrying out Trump’s corrupt scheme.”

“As this becomes more public, Trump’s position will grow increasingly unsustainable — not just as a rhetorical matter but also in terms of whether he’ll be able to keep the support of Senate Republicans, his final line of defense.”
