Hannity Previews Trump’s Legal Defense: “So What?”

The Washington Post reports:

We now have a particularly ugly preview of what this defense may look like, as Trump’s Senate trial gets underway. On Sean Hannity’s Thursday night show, former Republican National Committee chair Reince Priebus said: “Sometimes the best defense is the ‘so what’ defense. If everything the Democrats said is true, it’s still not impeachable. If everything Lev Parnas said is true, it’s still not impeachable. That’s what this is about.”

Hannity endorsed the argument. Parnas is the former accomplice of Trump lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani who just revealed explosive details about Trump’s scheme to extort Ukraine into doing his dirty political deeds. The Hannity segment is a fog machine of disinformation and incoherence. But the whole thing is must-watch TV.  It features arguments that set up the claim that there’s nothing wrong with anything Trump did.
