As the impeachment story rolls on, I would like to have Sen. Johnson answer a simple yes or no question. Should a public officeholder use his office to enhance his reelection? If I remember right, this was the situation that caused Chuck Chvala so many problems.

     There is a lot about Pres. Trump that has incited a lot of problems for our country, our image not the least, as well as trade and relations with our neighbors, Mexico & Canada, so let us pare it down to this question. I suppose that Sen. Johnson could claim that Pres. Trump was not doing partisan politics during the phone call to Ukraine. That just calls into question Sen. Johnson's perception, or his unquestioning support of a president doing whatever he can to get reelected. It may be that Sen. Johnson could say that it is not an impeachable crime, but, as noted above, the legal system disagrees with him. The president should not be above the law. If this offense is deemed not worthy of impeachment, he would be placed above the law.

      I will send off this letter to Sen. Johnson, but as a write in candidate to replace him, he ignores my letters, so I put this out to newspapers, and my blog, to publicize my queries and opinions.
