Link to source BEHIND PAYWALL.
In its lead editorial today, WSJ responds to Gerry Nadler’s claim, summarizing the House Managers’ impeachment case, that Trump wants to be a dictator or worse, behaves like one:

I imagine the battle plans for the Trump attorneys will be altered a bit.

Oops! “Can we rephrase that, please?”
“You call that a scandal? Try this.”
Overwhelm the nation with bad behavior and scandals. A novel approach to keep us distracted, confused and duped.
