    About the fact that lefties don't need evidence, just hate and feelings? You are certainly right.

    But the part most forget, is that Trump is so stupid he would end up shooting one of his supporters!

    I DIDN'T say that.

    Hopefully you have better "tactics" than Another Epically FAILED Attempt to put words in Other People's Mouth?

    It Is TRUMPISTS who believe (literally) ANYTHING that Trump dishes out.

    Happy to clear that up.:salute:

    You admitting that Schiff being smarter than you isn't saying much about you.

    What makes the DNC and Biden immune from investigation?

    Neither are above the law.

    Yeah, to make sure that they are going to abide by our rules.

    That's how things work when handing out money.

    Try to keep up.

    Sure. What about Rudy. He was one of the Democrat politicians taking money from the Ukrainians, huh?

    You'll ignore the corruption among elected officials in order to divert and attack a private citizen. How left wing of you.

    How did Barr miss this?
    Must be part of the deep state, I guess.

    Post it here. See if it works better.

    Ehh the " dirt for a campaign against a political rival" is a framing technique imo. What's real dumb to me is to say no quid pro quo knowing you'd eventually have to reverse course later. The masterful part by Trump was pretending it was no big deal but reversing course sends a different message. I still don't think it's impeachable but this blowback may top the scales along with the Syria ceasefire.

    They do that all the time. Run out one defense, then once all his supporters start to parrot it, he figures out it sucks and tries a new one.

    Yes they do but generally about inconsequential stuff wasn't expecting it for something this serious

    It generally means it's about to come out anyway so they try to get ahead of it.

    Not if there is, "probable cause," of a criminal act.

    And Trump released the transcript.

    If what you are saying is true, the House vote to proceed with Impeachment should show up on the docket as soon as tomorrow morning.

    Hillary wasn't above the law when she was running for POTUS. And these accusations against Biden began before he decided to run for POTUS.

    Why would you think Barr missed it? The investigations are not yet complete, or do you have some inside information? Have you watched the video?

    Yes, exactly. They seem to have no problem with corruption in their own party. Perhaps some of these people supporting the Bidens are not really Americans. It's hard to believe that many Americans would put party ahead of country. If so it's not a good sign for the future.

    This is from 2008 when Biden was again accused of corruption, but it was naturally ignored by the left.

    Trump never asked for any "campaign assistance". The Democratic Party has become full of Adam Schiff wannabes!

    Actually Comey and Lynch decided she was above the law. However we'll see what happens when the investigations by John Durham are made public.
