GOP Point 1: Trump was fighting corruption. He was not focused on Biden.
Fact: on Oct 3rd, Trump was asked what he wanted the Ukraine President to do. He said investigate Biden. Not fight corruption.
GOP Point 2: Ukraine meddled in our election.
Fact: on Dec 9th, Trump’s handpicked FBI Director says the US has no information that indicates that Ukraine interfered with the 2016 presidential election.

GOP Point 3: There was no quid pro quo.
Fact: on Oct 17th, from the White House podium, Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney told the world there was in fact a quid pro quo.
GOP Point 4: He didn’t commit a crime so you can’t impeach him.

GOP Point 5: It’s OK because he’s President and the law doesn’t apply to him.
Fact: As Marco Rubio pointed out in 2012, in this country no one is above the law.
GOP Point 6: Even if all of this is true, it is not impeachable.
