One is normal practice and the other, with the ask and the get, is why Trump will likely be impeached.
what question can’t i answer?

how am i being a hypocrite? i’m pointing out your hypocrisy. if it was ok for obama to ask the russians forma favor to help him politically, why can’t trump do it?

by the way, if biden didn’t do
Anything wrong, there’s no reason to fear an investigation.

i agree trump will likely be impeached. there’s a real chance this helps him, not hurt him. if
you can’t comcede that possibility, you have no idea why he got elected.

it will reduce the chances biden ( best bet to unseat him) is the nominee, and might make Trump appear to be the victim of a witch hunt to all except people
who weren’t going to vote for him
anyway.

if one genuinely believes it’s an impeachable offense, one has an obligation to impeach. if it’s all
an attempt to keep him from getting re elected ( which al green explicitly admitted to on msnbc) that’s a political gamble. sometimes gambles pay off, sometimes they don’t.

i think trump will happily take house impeachment if it means biden isn’t the nominee.

and if the reason obama
said “now isn't the time” was based on his upcoming re election ( and there’s no other
conceivable conclusion if to listen to what he said), then both are cases of a potus asking a foreign power for a favor that reaped political benefits for the potus. yesterday, all the libs were saying that in and of itself, is an impeachable offense. again, if that’s true, fine, but let’s apply it consistently. if
you refuse to apply it consistently, then it’s not a true principle.
