The following segment, describing the “whistleblower” who, Trump opponents hope, will take President Trump down, has been pulled, verbatim, from Stephen Collinson’s article for (Trump-hating) CNN:
Not surprisingly – this being CNN – Collinson buried what you just read far down in the article, after first putting as negative a spin on the story as he could.
But, that notwithstanding, what does it tell you?
It tells you that the “whistleblower” didn’t hear this conversation at all, he/she got it second-hand from someone else, whose knowledge of the call, and whose motives in passing it along, are therefore completely unknown.
In other words, it isn’t a “whistleblower” at all, it’s someone who heard something from someone else.
This is supposed to be a credible attack on the President?
If we weren’t talking about Donald Trump, would any serious journalist even think about presenting it to an editor for publication, let alone publish it?
But we are talking about President Trump, aren’t we? So it has been front-page news for the better part of a week….
…brought to you by the same “journalists” who bristle with indignation if anyone calls them biased.
It doesn’t get more pathetic than this.
