    The question in the OP is guilty of using a strategy called thinking past the sale. Trump uses it all the time in his rhetoric. It attempts to force you to accept something in question in order to argue a new point. We don't agree with the premise. The so called facts have to be agreed to first before we can discuss who will be willing to accept them.

    It doesn't matter. The OP does not belong in Current Events.

    who will be the first republican to accept the facts??

    I'm sure there will be many many republicans to be the first that will accept the facts when the Durham criminal investigation is completed. Not only the many republicans will accept the facts, but a grand jury and a court of law as well. Although the left and the media will have much trouble accepting the FACTS.

    Well, you know what they say about opinions? Opinions are just like a**holes, everybody's got one.

    And the whole point in every thread is to express one.

    Maybe you should read the rules, and follow them. This is Current Events, and it has guidelines for thread creation. The OP does not meet the criteria for thread creation.

    What do the rules say about impersonating a moderator? Isn't there an appropriate place for you to express this opinion?

    No, and neither is the impeachment inquiry hearings but that's all the testimony is. Opinions. An opinion as to why a career diplomat was fired. An opinion as to what overhearing what a phone call meant. An opinion as to why corruption wants to be uncovered. An opinion as to why financial aid to a foreign country was delayed. An opinion as to why foreign policies are changing. And just like my previous post stated
    the impeachment inquiry hearing is just a room full of a**holes. Funny how we can come full circle in such a short time.

    I suggest you contact the moderator

    if the mod moves or deletes this thread so be it

    I agree, the thread could have been in a different section

    but , as posted ,

    the impeachment and the discussions about the impeachment are pretty damn current!!

    lol

    Oh. You weren't trying to moderate this thread? So then you were just trolling?

    I do. I didn't create this thread.

    You, on the other hand, aren't following the rules.

    Maybe you should read them.

    And there has been no smoking gun to show anything. So keep dreaming. On top of that, there no evidence. Unless the dems forge something there is no evidence

    Yeah what could Biden possibly stand to gain by halting an investigation of corruption into a company his son was getting buckets of money from?

    Besides, the idea that politicians can only support policy they don't gain from personally is a bit silly. It's actually a key feature of a representative democracy. They literally only do things they gain from politically.

    It's just so happens that even the people testifying against Trump wanted the investigation Trump asked for to take place.

    Wouldn't you want to know if your potential candidate was involved in extortion to protect his son?

    He must of had really good lawyers like Hillary, Dick Cheney, most Kennedys, bill clinton, OJ, and obama. Much better than wiener, rod blagojevich, and stormy daniels.
