If it plays out that the Democrats impeach Trump, but that gesture is virtually meaningless because the Senate refuses to convict him, so he remains in office, and then he's re-elected again, will that officially make US politics the strangest in the world?

You left out your problem. Trump made no mention of holding back aid at all, much less in exchange for Ukraine to "find out what happened". Oops!

 

Then of course, "find out what happened" could have resulted in finding out Biden did nothing wrong- and that would have satisfied Trump's request.

 

Now, let's address your attempt to equate crack head Hunter Biden with the Trump children. Of course Trump helped his children along in the real estate business. For decades. That's what parents do. Any rational person would expect that.

 

Hunter Biden's sudden segue to international business after being kicked out of the Navy for drugs using an elected official parent as leverage is obviously an entirely different matter.

President Zelensky asked for Javelin anti-tank missiles, and Trump responded with "do us a favor though".  That made it clear that Trump expected a quid pro quo.

 

If we're going to "find out what happened" based on nothing but conspiracy theories, then let's find out why Deutch Bank, a notorious money laundering bank, was the only bank willing to fund Trump's businesses after his string of bankruptcies.

 

Are Don Jr and Eric in the real estate business?  I thought they were appearing on Fox not-News programs and collecting checks for public speaking engagements.

The evidence is that the aide was indeed held until ukraine would say publicly it was investigating.

Why are you so afraid of Biden being investigated? Like Trump, if he’s done nothing wrong he has nothing to fear, right?

Correct. I dont care at all if biden is investigated. Do it.

 

The impeachment investigation is not about him, its about trump. If you want a biden investigation then set it up and do it legally.

'...sources ranging from former Obama administration officials to an anti-corruption advocate in Ukraine say the official, Viktor Shokin, was ousted for the opposite reason Trump and his allies claim. It wasn't because Shokin was investigating a natural gas company tied to Biden's son; it was because Shokin wasn't pursuing corruption among the country's politicians, according to a Ukrainian official and four former American officials who specialized in Ukraine and Europe'.

The Biden conspiracy nonsense has been debunked so many times to the point where the originator of the story Peter Schweizer, a longtime associate of Steve Bannon, has been exposed as the person who started it all. He "devised a clever way to use the mainstream media against liberal politicians: Just gather a bunch of provocative but unrelated facts about a Democrat and pretend they point to a nefarious plot that's completely unsupported by those facts, then, instead of feeding them into the right-wing media fever swamp, feed them to respectable mainstream outlets that, in their desperate quest for balance, will investigate, promote, and legitimize the story, allowing it to spew all over the news ecosystem."

I know this doesn't feed into yours or Fox News's echo chamber but you've been conned and the evidence is very clearly there so as Sujo says bring it on but do it through the proper legal channels. Biden and son will be easily exonerated (although probably tarnished by association) and yet another Trump fed conspiracy theory will die a horrible but satisfying death.

Do the investigation will clear Biden’s name and hunt rather than help Trump, yes?

 

Yes, “Former Obama administration officials investigated...” former Obama officials and found no corruption. 
 

Well, that proves it, next!

Why didn’t they “...do their legally bound duty..” three years ago when they were calling for it, or after the Mueller investigation proved Trump guilty of obstruction? 
 

Is this legally binding duty something new or were they just waiting to get closer unto the election? 
 

If they have been legally bound all along, and chose to NOT move ahead with impeachment for political reasons, should they not face charges?

Good idea. Let's have baseless investigations of everyone. Certainly that's exactly what the creators of the Constitution had in mind when they created a document that allowed government to investigate anyone no matter how inadequate the evidence.

They (Trump's fans) have been shown evidence so many times that there are only two explanations:

- one is against forum's rule

- the other is that they are in propaganda mode and don't care whether their arguments are contradicted by facts or not.

What I find amazing is that you cannot see just how dumb Trump has been over the Biden conspiracy. 

EVERYONE (his advisers, Washington insiders, Congressmen, the media, Senators the lot) now know it was a cynical media hoax orchestrated by Peter Schweizer in an attempt to smear the Bidens and to help Trump but Trump is soooooo dumb that he actually believed it and is now facing impeachment because of it. However, I suppose we shouldn't be surprised that a man who said of Alex Jones "Your reputation is amazing. I will not let you down' would fall for such nonsense but you just keep banging that tired old drum and try and keep the Biden conspiracy alive as it must be getting REALLY hard now to defend this embarrassment of a POTUS.

Do any investigations you want. But not in trumps impeachment as its irrelevant, like most posts on here.

 

Biden was cleared by ukraine. Nothing burger. But by all means go there again. During a separate investigation. This is about trump.

USA Today got the story from the Washington Post who got the story from Newsweek who got the story from the New York Times who got the story from the CIA.  Yep, that story has been gone over a lot.

How can you 'share my frustrations' when you are my frustration?

 

Yuriy Lutsenko, who took over as Ukraine's general prosecutor after Shokin, told the BBC on Monday that there was no evidence that Biden, or his son, acted improperly.

"I don't know any reason to investigate Joe Biden or Hunter Biden according to Ukrainian law," Lutsenko said. He also explained that any "possible embezzlement" at Burisma was alleged to have occurred "two or three years before Hunter Biden became a member of the board." (Is the BBC on your 'don't believe' list?)

 

And here's one that you might actually listen to:-

Fox News senior judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano explained that prosecutors in Ukraine and the United States dismissed unsubstantiated claims pushed by President Donald Trump and his supporters that former Vice President Joe Biden acted corruptly within the Eastern European country.

"If you talk to [Trump's personal lawyer] Rudy Giuliani, he's got a lot of evidence of inappropriate behavior by the former vice president [Biden] and his son," Napolitano told the hosts of Fox News morning show Fox & Friends on Tuesday. "Yet the prosecutors in Ukraine and even prosecutors here in the United States say there's no there there," the former New Jersey Superior Court judge pointed out.

I've also gone to great lengths to show you how the story originally started (Peter Schweizer) which you conveniently ignore. I've also quoted Trumps own people who have sworn in congress that there was indeed a QPQ. 

Your willful ignorance is my frustration.

Put another way, why won't Trump appointee Attorney/Cover-up General Barr not investigating Biden?  Why is Moscow Mitch McConnell not directing the Senate to investigate Biden?

 

Could it be that they know the investigation would turn up nothing and be an embarrassing waste of time?

 

A Biden investigation has nothing to do with the impeachment investigation.  Stop deflecting.
