Help please.

I just remembered something.

Before the election was even over someone told me that no matter who won, someone was going to impeach someone else...meaning if hilary won, she would get impeached, and if trump won, he would be impeached.

I said no way. People should NOT be talking about impeachment this early.

Damn that person was right and damn was i wrong.

Which is to say, your point that some Democrats were set on impeachment from the outset is taken.

They cried wolf.

And now the red tie-wearing wolf's drool is dripping on our heads and many of us still don't take it seriously because the people saying it cried wolf too many times.

Has it occured to you that Republicans are taking advantage of this very reputation you speak of, using it as cover for their own corruption? Calling it a hoax, saying there is no evidence when there is...counting on people to not examine the facts for themselves.

Before i knew more facts i was leaning against impeachment too.

And who is the Inspector General of Intelligence?
Michael Atkinson
Party Affiliation - Democratic Party

Hired by Trump though.

In any case I don't think it's suspicious that he was doing his job. It sounds like you're saying being a Democrat makes someone a criminal.

That the inspector general of the intelligence community notified congress of a whistleblower complaint, as is required of him by law. Makes sense but oh wait...he's a democrat, nevermind, he's on the wrong team, we can't trust him. So much for bipartisanship.

And what exactly are you suggesting? That he made up the whistleblower complaint? Maybe he's hired all the witnesses in the hearing and wrote the texts and emails that were presented as evidence too? He probably wrote the transcript that trump released as well. Damn those wily dems.

Why do some people get disrespected even though that person does things right?

I'm assuming you're younger than 25 forgive me if i am incorrect.

Yes. But nice people are easy targets. Once they take a stand its too much of a shock and it baffles the abuser.
My take. Its better to be an ase wipe than a nice guy because nice guys finish last

I had lots of thoughts like that growing up and i have learned a lesson that goes like this: I'd rather be nice and like myself than be mean and end up not liking who i am. Liking who you are is something you will wind up caring a bit more about as you get older.

You might win an argument in the moment by being mean but you'll feel like dirt afterward. At least that is how it always worked for me. Not everyone would agree with me

Well why does nice people get disrespected.
Same thing .

Well, to be socratic about it, why does anyone get disrespected? Is there usually a good reason for it?

We should all just be nice to eachother and respect eachother. Some people aren't nice and don't follow that rule.

Sometimes it is a matter of retalation, one token of disrepsect in exchange for another.

Or who knows. Life is complex and infinitely varied. There isn't always a specific that can apply in all situations.

I would think the answer to that question would depend on the context.

The whistleblower's complaint is actually posted on the house of reps website.

Do either of you know if the Whistleblower's letter has been made public?

I havent heard anything.

I imagine they wouldn't release anything that could hint the identity of the whistle blower until trump is no longer president. By impeachment or other means.

Todays top impeachment story is the release of an email from a white house official to DOD requesting the hold be put on the aid two hours after the phone call.

Being said, I apologize for any infraction I may have caused you.

I was probably a bit hasty and shouldn't have taken it personally.
