Focus for a moment on the defense that Mr. Trump cannot receive a fair hearing unless the whistle-blower is identified and compelled to testify. Suppose an anonymous person calls 911 to report a crime in progress. The police respond and catch a wrongdoer
in the act and arrest him. Applying Republican logic, the charge must be dismissed and the criminal released unless the police can, somehow, find the caller and make him available as a witness for the defense so he can be questioned about whether he made
up the story because he disliked the defendant. Mr. Trump's other "defenses" are equally plausible.
