Not anymore than any other President in the 60 years. Don't be naive. But I digress.There was NO proof Trump actually violated ANY statutory law. Funny, that being said, then the Democrats shift this into the philosophical debate about "abuse of power" As if that isn't flimsy and subjective as hell.I don't know why Republican's took such offense. McConnel probably told them that, symbolically. We all know the revenge of tramp even on his republican's. They need to be kept in line, even Paul knows that:

“If they insist on having people like Bolton coming forward, my insistence will be not just one witness. But that the president should be able to call any witnesses that he deems necessary to his defense.” If any of his colleagues get any funny ideas, he added, they’ll be in for a world of pain. If “some Republicans help Democrats get witnesses and there are no witnesses for the president, I think the end result is a revolutionary tide against those people,” Paul said. “I can’t imagine that [Trump] will let it go by if someone votes to bring in witnesses that his administration isn’t interested in.”

Dems that hate Trump will think this is a sign of corruption. And the Repubs will see this as a attempt to nullify a legal and fair election. It's a lose-lose situation for us all.

Not the point. Trump has abused and debased the office of president BEFORE he even took office.
Pressuring another country to aid him personally was crossing the red line.
