According to a really interesting article by Mike Lillis and Scott Wong in The Hill, the whistleblower’s report over Trump’s Ukraine call looks like the smoking gun for impeachment Trump critics have been looking for.
For months, President Trump’s critics have been scouring his record in search of the smoking gun that might compel voters to back impeachment.
With this week’s release of a damning whistleblower report revealing Trump’s questionable dealings with Ukraine’s president, some lawmakers think they’ve found it.

Rep. Judy Chu (D-Calif.), head of the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus, delivered a similar assessment.
“In general, the feeling is that it more than adds to our case that the president broke the law and that he violated the Constitution,” she said. “They certainly look to me like they’re impeachable offenses.”
