Wow. Wow. Ok. Wow. I, uhh... okay.

The President would now like you to believe that:

1. The reports of Republicans acknowledging a quid pro quo are "false stories."

1/

2. Those Republicans, in the false story, are also saying it doesn't matter and there's nothing wrong with that, and it's not impeachable.

3. Even though that story is false, and they never said that, what they never said might be true.

2/

4. The memo that was hidden away, and that people were instructed not to talk about, and several people have testified under oath that has been edited, is a "transcript."

3/

5. Even though that memo explicitly asks for a favor before addressing the question of aid, and that question itself would be a crime, there is no quid pro quo.

6. Adam Schiff is corrupt.

7. Schiff made up the contents of the call.

4/

8. Those testifying against him *all* have personal vendettas.

9. Schiff will change the documents and transcripts from those testimonies to make Trump look bad.

10. Republicans should release their own competing documents.

5/

11. Any documents provided by Democrats are propaganda.

12. House Republicans should disavow any information provided by Schiff.

6/

13. Schiff should be impeached for lying, leaking and being a "freak," even though there is no proof of any of that, and you cannot impeach a member of Congress.

This. Is. Bananas. Not one thing listed here can be proven. Not one allegation or statement here is factually correct. This is pure gaslighting and manipulation.

These are the rantings of a paranoid street corner lunatic.

8/

The frightening part is that he just called the play, and dozens of spineless bootlicking sycophants whose campaign accounts were just fattened by Individual 1 will put on their helmets, clutch their pearls, get out there in front of the cameras, and run it.

There is a confession in these tweets. And you don't have to be an expert at subtext to find it.
