    This has been an issue for Plugs since before he decided to run for POTUS.

    The 2018 vote was skewed because the Mueller report was hanging over the GOP. Remember, all the experts were sure collusion was for real, etc? They almost had me believing the lies. Anyway, the GOP lost fewer votes than Obama in one of his midterms.

    I would say precious few care about your posts. But, try to stay on topic or don't post on the thread, I won't ask again.

    You mean when the new Ukrainian president came in and the corrupt one left. We have a treaty to uncover corruption with Ukraine.

    Nothing is going to happen to those two; It's just more conservative hysterics in an attempt to silence them from further testimony if needed.

    Of course it does. If Joe Biden did what he said he did it would constitute a serious Abuse of Office charge...........



    If Biden really did this then he would be unfit for being President. Then we can thank President Trump for getting the Ukrainian President and AG Barr for going after corruption. If Biden didn't do what he said he did on videotape, then it would be a nothingberger.

    If Biden abused his office, that is a matter for American authorities. Not for the president to ask a foreign leader to publicly announce an investigation into it.

    A treaty that wasn't used by the president.

    Comical at best. Trump asked the Ukrainian President to look into the matter and coordinate with AG Barr, that's all that was on the transcript. The rest of it your left nut media is making up.

    Why his testimony is in his transcript released.

    Oh, you mean investigating corruption by the treaty isn't using the treaty?

    Schiff is without morals, ethics or even conscience.

    Technically, I can see the problem with not having the Whistleblower testify. Realistically, it's not necessary, as everyone well knows. There are people with far more connection to and involvement in what happened than the Whistleblower at this point. He's not necessary anymore.

    But he did make the initial claims, so his connection to the case does exist even if his testimony is part of the theater Republicans want to crate to distract from what the president did.

    Not so for Hunter Biden. He has nothing to do with what Trump did other than being the subject. The Republicans want him involved so they can distract from Trump by pointing at the Biden's.

    There's nothing wrong with investigating the Biden's and calling them out if wrongdoing occurred. It's just not relevant to Trump's impeachment. It's a separate issue requiring a separate investigation and separate court proceedings.

    Of course it is.



    If Biden really did this then he would be unfit for being President. If Biden didn't do it then it would go nowhere with the AG, if he did he should be brought to justice.

    The guy admitted to it on video tape, so of course it deserves further investigation to determine if he was BSing or he really did it. The guy wants to be President. We could ask Biden if he broke the law but he'll likely just say it wasn't true and he was bragging. So we have to ask the other side which is what Trump did. Judging by the reaction from the left, I'm thinkin he did it or they wouldn't care because there would be nothing there.

    Sadly, Trump is a lying sack of :icon_shithappens:, however he is still less of a criminal than most of the left. Sad reality of our political system that needs to change!

    Other witnesses have sworn, under oath, that Trump insisted on a public announcement of an investigation into the Bidens.

    And again - this is a matter for American authorities. There is absolutely zero evidence that the Bidens are under investigation. None. Nada. Zip.

    You talked about cross examination. Using your logic, there is no need to cross-examine the whistleblower because "his testimony in his report is released".

    Either you want to cross-examine "everyone involved" (those were your words) or you don't.

    The treaty exists, but Trump did not make his "request" pursuant to the treaty. Read the treaty.

    I don't disagree at all about your stated implications for Biden. It absolutely should be taken seriously, investigated, and made public if there was wrongdoing.

    That's just not what the purpose of Trump's impeachment is, nor would the Biden's being found to have acted improperly change what Trump did.

    The Biden's are worthy of investigation, but as a separate issue.
