The urgent case for indicting THIS sitting President

Donald Trump is used to having his people going around the world influencing and cutting deals with foreign governments. This is the way he has operated for a long time. It appears he has never had any legal lines he would not cross. The problem is, he has apparently felt no obligation to curb these activities as president, instead opting to use these tactics for political gain in addition to his insatiable quest for monetary gain.
He has had his people in contact with foreign governments before the 2016 election and has continued ever since.
Most recently, on Sunday, October 6th, Trump received a phone call from President Erdogan, and immediately agreed to pull U.S. forces out of Syria, allowing Turkish forces to go in and attempt to wipe out our Kurdish allies who have been helping us in keeping ISIS at bay. He tried this previously, but was stopped that time by congress and the people around him. This time he appears to have circumvented any oversight by unilaterally approving this action with no consultation or notification whatsoever.
It is important to note that -
Michael Flynn was acting as a foreign agent for the Turkish government while serving as Trump's National Security Advisor.
Trump has numerous lucrative business ties and ventures in Turkey, not least of which is dual Trump Towers in Istanbul in which he is paid millions a year for the use of his name.
Lindsey Graham was caught promising cooperation with the Turkish government and agreeing that the Kurds are a threat to Turkey in scam calls from Russians.
In an apparent effort to maintain his hold on power it is important to note that -
Bill Barr was sent to Italy in late September in an attempt to discredit U.S. intelligence agencies regarding the Mueller probe and specifically the Russia investigation and 2016 election interference.
Giuliani traipsed all over the world with his Soviet born 'associates' trying to get dirt on Biden and influence investigations and foreign policy, but especially in the Ukraine.
Giuliani's two associates donated what is thought to be laundered money to an individual known as Congressman 1.
The same amount of money donated to Congressman 1 appears to have been received by former Congressman Pete Sessions of Texas, who in May of 2018 was instrumental in pressing Mike Pompeo for the removal of the then ambassador to the Ukraine.
Giuliani claims he is doing all of this for Trump for free. But this is highly doubtful. Odds are the same laundered money that was used to pay off 'Congressman 1' is used to fund Giuliani's efforts around the globe as well as compensate him for his services. Trump rarely pays anyone himself, opting to be funded by foreign (often Russian) money.
It is common knowledge that anyone with the foreign ties Trump, his family, and associates have would never be allowed to work for the federal government in any capacity, and would NEVER be granted a security clearance, likely at any level.
This is the LAST type of person who should EVER hold public office, let alone run the entire country, and his behavior the entire time he has been in office makes it pretty clear why. He has no allegiances to anyone but himself, and will sell us, the Kurds, our special forces, and anyone else out to any foreign entity that funds him or does what he wants.
It's time officials, intelligence agencies, and Congress stop hiding behind an ill conceived Justice Department memo that does not accurately represent the Constitution or the intent of the founders, convict him of his multitude of crimes against our government, and find this orange man an orange jumpsuit to wear in a deep dark prison cell until the end of his natural life.
