Did Trump Help Feed False Information to Congress?

November 30, 2018 at 8:35 am EST By Taegan Goddard

Ken White: “The conclusion that the President of the United States knew that his personal counsel was repeatedly lying to the Congress of the United States about the President’s business is inescapable under these circumstances.”

David French: “This is a conclusion that’s directly relevant to the obstruction of justice inquiry. It does not mean that the president obstructed, but it’s important to remember that both the Clinton and Nixon articles of impeachment included charges related to the president’s efforts to get witnesses to lie under oath. We should now ask, did the president have any role in feeding this false information to Congress?”

But he didn't vote for Hillary either.

The label “Never Trump” is and was imprecise. There were actually two broad kinds of Never Trumpers. There were the Never Trumpers who voted for Hillary and the people like me (and many of my colleagues) who were opposed to Trump and Hillary and refused to vote for either candidate. This is not a small difference

That is why they won't stand up to trump when they know that he is destroying our country day by day.
