Let’s give Rep. Chris Stewart a little credit: At least he bothered to show up Wednesday for the first public impeachment hearing.
That’s better than he had done for half the depositions of senior officials who have laid out how President Donald Trump withheld aid to Ukraine unless the new president announced a corruption investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden’s son that would help Trump politically.
And we’re lucky he was there. By parroting the Trump talking points, it spared us all from having to read the same trash on the president’s Twitter feed.
