Doc Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 22 hours ago, All_Pro_Bills said: Trump was impeached because he was investigating how much cash the Biden's sucked out of Ukraine. What some described as trying to dig up "dirt" on his opponent. A type of election interference. What it meant was you can't ask questions about corrupt politicians that are protected by the system. But I understand the threshold of proof here on PPP is dependent on the subject of the investigation. We've got lots of slow-witted posters here convinced Trump sold nuclear secrets to our enemies with absolutely not a single shred of what might constitute the minimum level of suspicion. They are most gullible and buy over and over again the proverbial Brooklyn Bridge proverb. With the Biden's we've got official FBI documents detailing specific activities, most of which are illegal. Wire transfer records, avoidance of taxes, and unaccounted for sources of income. We have a House committee investigating the Biden's which is expected to produce about 10 criminal referrals of Hunter Biden, for starters. But no "proof". I find the entire debate mentally draining and senseless because unless Joe Biden walked up to their door, rang the doorbell, and announced he was guilty many of his defenders here won't be compelled to use any common sense or objective thinking and acknowledge there's more to the story than smoke. Joke could kill a man on 5th Avenue and Dems... 22 hours ago, BillsFanNC said: Even here you give them too much credit. Not a single one would be prepared to even begin scrutinizing Biden under your scenario. This is what happens when you've been completely demoralized and live under a perpetual green sky. Again, they need to believe that he's as pure as the driven snow, because Trump was so horrible. It's fascinating to see. 21 hours ago, SoCal Deek said: I’m going to assume that many on here have adult aged children. If so let me ask you this: Your son or daughter tells you they just got a job working for a Ukrainian Energy Company after having jumped on your plane to visit that far away, meaningless country; would your response have been to NEVER ask him/her “say what?…you got a job?…doing what exactly?”. Give me a break! But Joke doesn't ever lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can’t do or ask anything that would relate to a potential rival even if he knows or believes a crime has been committed? I’m sure there’s something about that in the constitution. And if he’s not supposed to ask about it personally then the right thing to do is have your FBI spy on the opposition’s campaign. No, wait!

That’s an interesting explanation of the history There was no evidence, then there is no evidence now of any wrongdoing by Joe Biden There is, however, a little bit of a problem with a phone call where Donald Trump tried to use military aid to try to coheres Ukraine and trying to find dirt on Joe Biden, which never existed All these things you like to believe they sound really nice if only for the fact that there is no proof, there is, however, an audio of a phone call that can’t be denied 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has gotten to be utterly ridiculous. The entire country has seen the video of Joe bragging about getting a prosecutor fired. President Trump was more than correct to ask the incoming Ukrainian president to look into what the heck that was all about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t believe this is even a discussion you do know that we have a DOJ that was that had leaders that were appointed by trump.

I am an independent my views on things go back-and-forth across the aisle though they do lean left just because I can’t stand Donald Trump. He was a horrible president. I will explain this again. There are tools did the United States uses to do these kinds of investigations they are not done directly by a president for the very reason that Donald Trump got impeached. Joe Biden is doing it the correct way he is leading the proper people do the proper investigations it’s not anybody’s fault that Donald Trump is a ***** idiot and a criminal I’ve already defending him on the handling of the pandemic, not Donald Trump’s fault I have already called January 6 a riot and not an insurrection However, there is no excuse for the documents case. I probably feel stronger about that one because I spent 10 years of my life in that field. Donald Trump is a crook it would be different if he was just a bad president.

Yes, he gave them back as soon as they were identified which is by the way the reason why Donald Trump is being indicted he didn’t give them back but that still doesn’t make it OK I would not be surprised if later on down the road whenever Joe Biden is no longer president. The handling of those documents doesn’t come back up. 1 minute ago, SoCal Deek said: What if the ‘tools’ are just that…tools! Are we having a serious conversation or is this joke time?
