LISTEN: Richard Painter & Chauncey DeVega
Richard Painter was White House chief ethics counsel
under George W. Bush and is a frequent political commentator and
analyst on CNN, MSNBC and other news networks. Painter is
also a professor of corporate law at the University of
Minnesota and the author of several books, including “Getting
the Government America Deserves.” He is also the host of
“The Politics Podcast With Richard
Painter.”
Painter explains why Donald Trump’s machinations with the President of Ukraine are
so dangerous.
He also offers insights on how the Democrats should proceed with
impeaching Donald Trump and why Nancy Pelosi waited so long to
begin this process.
And Richard Painter warns that if Donald Trump is not impeached
for his apparent efforts to extort and bribe the President of
Ukraine to help defeat Joe Biden how that would further embolden
Trump’s assault on American democracy and the rule of law.
