If the Ukraine Prosecutor's investigation was a possible threat to Biden's son, wouldn't that be personal gain for Biden?
Ok...I don't know how many times people have to spell this out, but the Biden thing does NOT equate to what Trump did AT ALL.
1) Biden was operating as the VP with Obama's knowledge out in the open and furthering US Policy.
2) Trump was NOT operating as a mouthpiece for US Policy. He was involving a foreign power to try to get dirt on his political rival. He says it was to get Ukraine to focus on corruption, but his ONLY topic was the Bidens...and it has been several years since Hunter Biden was on that board and before the current Ukrainian President was in power.
3) Biden's son's firm was NOT being prosecuted.
4) The prosecutor in question was called to resign by the entire western world. Biden was the messenger
5) The prosecutor in question was asked to resign because he was NOT doing enough to root out corruption, so a new prosecutor would likely be MORE dangerous to the company on whose board Hunter Binden sat.
6) There is NO evidence that Joe Biden or Hunter Biden did anything illegal.
7) Not only is there NO evidence that either Biden did anything wrong, their situation has been investigated, and nothing was found. I have admitted that the investigation by Mueller did NOT prove conspiracy with Russia and I accept that finding (I've said so several times now), so you Trumpers need to show some integrity and say the same thing about the Bidens who have been investigated and cleared.
Now, you idiot Trumpers, quit bringing up this stupid stupid crap that is just not anywhere near the same as what Trump has done here -- and Trump has ADMITTED doing it, so you can't argue he didn't.
My God, some of you are SOOOOO ignorant. It is really unbelievable.
