It all seems a bit unfair to me  ...Trump saw a jugular and went for it .

A bit like asking a Tiger to go easy on that poor lamb !

 

Yes, it's totally unfair to ask of the President of the US not to blackmail foreign heads of state for own political gains. One cannot hold Trump up to such lofty standards.

Agree totally!

Maybe you have adopted Trump's moral compass,

 

Baiting

 

but Zelensky seems to understand who he is doing a favor,

 

Speculation, personal interpretation

 

and he is not the only one,

 

Opinion stated as fact, no evidence provided.

 

that's how things work with Trump at US Presidency.

 

Speculation, opinion dressed up as fact.  No evidence provided.

 

Trump is innocent of this charge until proven guilty.  To talk as if he were already guilty is disingenuous.  To raise any circumstance surrounding this "scandal" and pretend that it is rooted in corruption without providing any evidence is disingenuous.  This is what Dems do.

Is Biden also innocent of whatever he is being charged with until proven guilty?  Is there any evidence that VP Biden did anything illegal?

 

Trump is asking another country's President to dig up dirt on a political appointment.  You don't see anything wrong with that?

Is there something wrong when a policeman investigates crime report? Is the cop digging dirt or doing his job?

Oh it's going to be painful alright. The Democrats will be squealing for another 5 years at least. 

 

Seems to have fired up Trump's support. Evidently he raised $5 million dollars in the time since Pelosi held her press event, from all 50 states. The dems need to realize that impeachment A. won't work B. will give the impression that they are trying to steal the election.

 

You all are up in the polls it should be decided by voting. If the dems somehow remove Trump they will never get anything done with a split house and senate. If they get a clean win they will have somewhat of a mandate.

The White House has a complete transcript of Ukraine call but hid it in a possible 'abuse of power,' whistleblower complaint says

 

A whistleblower complaint over a call between US President Donald Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart said that White House officials hid a full transcript of the call.

The document, released Thursday, claims that White House lawyers moved the transcript from one computer system to a much more secure one reserved for classified information.

The whistleblower said they had been told the contents of the call did not need to be classified this way, and were moved for political reasons.

Never mind Biden, I think the problem for the Democrats, is they are running scared from what may be found about their interference of the 2016 election. If they were concerned about interference from the Russians, Ukraine,  or Trump, why didn't they let the FBI investigate their servers, and other matters? 

Another smoke screen and preemptive attack, by an Obama operative, trying to cover Obama's tracks.

But that was the problem in 2016, and again in 2020. Who would that competent leadership be? Comrades Bernie, or Warren, surely you don't think Joe can do it.

It's always bizarre to see Trump supporters criticizing Biden on the grounds of incompetence. Or not being fully engaged with reality.

But Joe has a track record, and Trump is the least of his problems, when it comes to the nomination. Never mind comments from a Trump supporter, look at the comments from his fellow Democrats.

The latest from the disturbingly unhinged president. He said he was going to try to stop the impeachment process through the courts. That's not a thing. A few days ago he said Biden deserved the electric chair.

How anyone still supports that man is truly amazing.

Why did the policeman only get interested in the four year old crime report, which had already been investigated and found to be baseless, when there was political gain for him?

Enough of the "but, but, but....Biden!" 

 

Trump solicited help from a foreign national for his election campaign, which is illegal, and made it clear that future US military aid to Ukraine was contingent on getting this election help, which is an abuse of power.  All else is deflection.

No for the policeman there would be career gains by being seen to do good police work. It would look good on his record.

 

Just as politicians are motivated by political gains. That's how they get elected and stay in power. Things that look good on their record make people vote for them. And exposing corruption in a rival is not only the right thing to do, it is politically expedient.

 

The left has been digging up dirt relentlessly as their only policy move appears to be impeachment. If they actually got some dirt it would help them too. The left has no room to complain about dirt digging. It is all they do.

I agree with your entire post and I don't like any of that "but,but,but" stuff either. Still, it has never been clear to me how soliciting help from a foreign national for an election campaign, by proxy, is substantially different than seeking help from a foreign national for an election campaign directly. The intent of both actions, it seems to me, are clearly illegal.
