    Dont even bother . Biden could go on national television and claim he loves the AR-15 and these guys would defend deflect and outright lie to defend him.

    The irony is that all these progressive Presidential candidates who want to confiscate all the "weapons of war" actually are acting so that only criminals who don't obey laws will have them.

    Might as well Quote Attila the Hun on the Romans. Your source couldn't be any more biased.

    Please tell me what is inappropriate about this and how is it any different from what The Dems did in 2016. And please don't hand me the old saw about they went about it more indirectly.

    Accurate I think. Trump is an awful human being.

    DC and better than a lot of it.

    Heads of state ask each other for "favors" all the time. It is a polite way of saying what you would like the other to do. Very often those favors involve criminal and corruption activity and investigations; they are easy things to ask, unlike please give me $500 million.

    Wow! They should have appointed you Special Counsel. Mueller certainly found no collusion or obstruction from the Trump Tower meeting, and he and his expert motivated team looked really hard.

    Please provide a few examples of your "all the time" instances of a head-of-state, after holding up vital, allocated funds, requests a "favor" - that the foreign government investigate his leading political rival and his son against whom there is no evidence of criminal activity.

    Just a few examples should suffice.

    Wow! Basically he just about commits a corrupt act every time he breathes. Any single one of which would have tainted the whole administration of any other President. The corrupt acts that Trump commits in just one week would probably have merited the impeachment of any other President in history.

    and now we have Trump trying to obstruct his latest collusion attempt with Ukraine

    wow, you need to read the real report and not go by the Barr book report....

    Mueller was very clear, if he thought Trump was innocent he would have said so, he did not say so and the report shows why

    So, what do you reckon Trump was 'politely' asking Zelensky to do?

    Investigate the corruption of the previous Ukrainian administration. The Steele Dossier and Hunter Biden are specific examples.

    That is what they call semi automatic 22 caliber rifles which are illegal to use deer hunting in many states because they are not powerful enough and thus inhumane.
