3 pages and not one trump supporter has been on topic.

 

Do tell, what is wrong with wanting international attempts to influence an election reported.

It seems many of his supporters support him no matter what. Somehow they think what is good for Trump is good for America is good for them. It should be easy, even for the most intellectually challenged, to see that what Trump does is not good for the USA. They only would have to open their eyes a little to look at reality from time to time. But no, they keep their eye shut and trust in god and fox "news" and Trump. Amazing USA.

They already are [carrying Mao's little red book] in a manner of speaking. 

 

When the mob bays for the head of a professor who refuses to apologise grovellingly for something "white privileged" he may have said, [and when weak cowardly presidents cave in and throw him to the wolves], then you know that America has finally caught up with the China of the 1970s.

In fact, the revolution got so out of hand in China, Mao had to intervene to cool them down.

 

I wonder how a president Biden (or Harris, Warren, Abrams whatever the real president's name might be) would handle the hotheads of the Democratic cultural revolution.....

Way off-topic from Republicans refusal to require reporting of foreign attempts at election interference, but...

 

Trump blew this country's best chance at restraining China when he backed out of the TPP.  Since then he hasn't been negotiating, he's been making noise without stating any clear objectives, alienating allies that could help him contain China, and bankrupting farmers.

 

But some people just listen to the noise.

Exactly what has trump achieved by 'standing up' for America? One thing for sure is increased cost of trade and subsidies for the American tax payer / consumer. China has not backed down on any strategic issues as 'demanded' by trump, in fact trump swings between overt support for PRC and whining when they don't comply to demands. Diplomatically trump can't fight himself out of a wet paper bag.

It seems to me that those who read this didn't read or maybe comprehend where It was mentioned that there are already laws that make gifts or donations from another country illegal. Both Democrat and Republicans alike must disclose all donations. And then there is Biden and his son Hunter whom received millions from the Chines and Ukraine and never mentioned that...Hum I guess that doesn't count. I see a tremendous lack of common sense not only in America but also abroad like here in Thailand. Try reading beyond the headlines of the bias new media and do your own facts checking.

You might be right on actual evidence,  but many Americans are curious just the same. There is so little Americans know about the bidens.

There are laws against receiving foreign election assistance.  There is no law requiring that offers of foreign election assistance be reported.  This law would have corrected that.

 

Hunter Biden was hired to work in China and Ukraine.  Whether his employers got value for their money is debatable.  However Joe Biden did not take any money from either of these countries. 

        Trump claims not to of been told of the Bounty scandal, not surprised IF TRUE, with all the gutless cronies around him, not wanting to upset him, then being fired.

Anything will do to re-elect the red-toupeed conman, even turning to external powers. The GOP has become a cesspool of traitors.  However, what goes around always comes around, sooner or later, in one form or another.

I think it was sleazy of Hunter Biden to accept those offers. But his sleaze pales in comparison to Jared Kushner's. Via a bizarrely favorable sweetheart deal, his family got bailed out of a huge failure of a real estate deal done by Jared himself. So far the identity of only one of those investors is known: the govt. of Qatar. And unlike Hunter Biden, Kushner is a government official. Not just that, but a government official with a special responsibility for the Mideast. And then there's Ivanka's very favorable treatment for trademarks from the Chinese govt. Oh yes, she, too, unlike Jared Kushner is also a member of the government.

I note you provided no link to your biden claims.

 

I also note you didnt address the topic. Yes they must disclose donations, but that isnt the topic, its about disclosing when offered is made.

 

So tell me, if a foreign govt offers help to you think that its ok or should be disclosed.

I'll gladly answer. If a campaign is aware of offers of help from foreign governments, it should be disclosed.

An allegation from  Andriy Derkach 

Derkach was the fellow who released tapes of conversations between the former Ukrainian PM and Joseph Biden. Despite the fact that they were highly edited, there was absolutely nothing incriminating on them. He's aligned with the pro russian faction of the Ukrainian parliament.

Gee, you're right. Doesn't everyone want to give a crack head kicked out of the military a six-figure income on his merits? Let's at least try to keep it real, shall we?

Just because Hunter Biden didn't merit the payments does that mean it was a payoff to Joseph Biden?

Because the family of Trump's son-in-law got a huge bailout from the government of Qatar, does that mean it was a payoff to Trump?

In Hunter Biden's case, probably.

I don't know about Jared Kushner. But obviously, he is a skilled and successful businessman whereas Hunter Biden is just a loser crack head with no merits.

Take that up with the person who asked the question using the word "should".

As I noted it was sleazy. And it's almost certain that Burisma was hoping it would help with the Obama administration to have Biden's son be earning a large and unjustifed income. The same way it's almost certain that Qatar was hoping it would help to give a huge sweetheart deal to bail out Kushner's family. That doesn't mean in either case it's even close to being established as a fact. But the crucial difference is that Kushner is actually a government official with a special responsibility for the mideast. And his family was bailed out of a disastrously bad deal of Kushner's devising.

And of course there's the Chinese govt granting Ivanka a large number of trademarks in an unusually short time. Just about the time that Trump spared the Chinse corp. ZTE from bankruptcy and extinction.

Seems to me that such enlightened views were rejected by Trump supporters on this forum whenever Trump's many potential conflict of interests issues arose, or when his son in law got some dubious bailout courtesy of a foreign power. Don't recall such positions regarding Trump and his campaign staff meetings and talks with various Russians of interest, or the offers involved.

It seems to the better-informed people this is election year politics. Republicans oppose _____________ bill from Democrats. Democrats oppose ____________ bill from Republicans. Boring.

You don't know about Jared Kushner. Because it wasn't discussed on topics here and or numerous media outlets. But you do know that he is a "skilled and successful businessman". Granted, one that needed a bailout from a foreign power. Very believable, there. Not.

No evidence presented that the payment was illegal.  And of course no evidence it benefited Joe Biden.

 

Finally, consider the source:

 

"Among those with whom Giuliani has met is pro-Russian Ukrainian MP Andriy Derkach, a former member of the Party of Regions, the political party of Ukraine's toppled pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych. In recent weeks, Derkach has held a series of press conferences pushing unsupported theories attacking ousted U.S. Ambassador Maria Yovanovitch and leveling allegations without proof that Hunter Biden received corrupt payments. At the press conferences, Derkach has presented dubious documents that he has also frequently misrepresented.

Ok, now you've gone into outright lying.  Joe Biden never bragged "about extorting an entire country to call the dogs off his loser son and loser son".  He bragged about implement the goals of the US and European allies in removing an inept and corrupt prosecutor. 

I can see why you misunderstood my meaning. I'll gladly make it more clear. Biden bragged about extorting Ukraine. It is highly likely he did so to call the dogs off the scent of he and Hunter's grift.

Biden made his reasons clear, and they were legitimate and served the interests of the U.S.  There was no active investigation of Burisma when Biden pushed for the prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, to be fired.  You have no evidence to support your "highly likely" claim.
