He engages in a moral relativism. a democracy to the dictator ship. he does it in interviews and private meetings as well. if we can find out what else he has said to leaders like putin and mohammed bin salman. and conversations which have been filed in the code word protected system. clearly to keep them out of public view. this is the equal of the white house tapes. for the nixon white house. this is damming stuff. were seeing it come out. the ship of state is springing leaks. impeachment has ...
