No one has to prove Trumps request was legal. The democrats have to prove it wasn't legal.

"The man has proven he has no issues past, present or future in enlisting foreign powers to interfere in our democracy and elections for personal gain"

I agree he's done that. My question is, when did that become unethical? Hilary wasn't using her office to get donations to her foundation? Obama didn't do that when he asked the Russians to postpone missile talks (talk about national security!) until after his re election? The Senate democrats didn't do that when they asked Ukraine to investigate Manafort and Trump?

Or can you just say out loud what we all know, that's it's only unethical when Trump does it?

I don't think what Trump did was "nothing". But I think it was nothing much more, than what they all do. Once again, we're going to hold him to a different standard, because he's the most vulgar person by far to ever hold that office.
