Not quite. What scares me is that the Republicans are lowering the impeachment bar to include "political purposes" and "lying".

Just about all politicians lie. We probably have not had one President that has not deliberately lied, sometimes concerning issues of significant national interest. The Republicans are hardly being truthful, themselves, about the reasons that they are going thru with the impeachment.

I don't justify lying, but the Republicans are setting a precedent that Presidents may be impeached if they are caught lying, even if that lie is a result of a political trap.

The Republicans are releasing a cancer on our constitutional system by doing this. And noone in the Republican ranks has the balls or backbone to stand up and stop it from happening! It's a sad time.
