you’re also saying that the issue is t that trump does these things, but that he does them more often than his predecessors.
where is it written that there’s a maximum number? what’s that number?
and we didn’t miss our chance with what they did to carter page, maybe you haven’t heard, but a us attorney is almost done looking into it.

the Republicans originally started it — dirt on Donald Trump, those are the facts.

You actually believe all thoses investigation were based on manufactured information.. of course you do.. again with zero evidence to support your claim.. shocking .. yet here we have Trumps transcript and him asking the Chinese for help.. and you bring up carter page.. who was just investigated ... no jail no false imprisonment thats how investigations work..
TRUMP claims he has the right as potus to look into corruption and ask other country's to help.. thats rich seeing he only cared after he got caught and Biden poll numbers...
Defense contractors ask why their contracts wernt being paid. Congress we didnt stop anything... the white house stopped them secretly ... why would they do that?? But we know why.. some of use refuse to connect the dots

Actually the DNC hired a US law firm who hired a former British spy. Never heard anything about payments to Russians.

Who was suspected of being a Russian agent, and approved by Republican appointed judges, sure go along...

It doesn't matter. Not all investigations result in charges.

The fact is that the chief executive of a country, or his executive branch legal apparatus, such as the DOJ, or personal legal representatives have the right by treaty to ask the chief executive of a foreign country to assist in determining, in an ongoing investigation of corruption, if any illegal or criminal or corrupt acts occurred either by that countries legal apparatus, or by any American citizens in coordination with that country in regard to the investigation. It is a fact that Trump asked for such assistance. Whether he did so in order to interfere with our coming election is the charge in dispute. That charge is an assumption not a fact. It would have to be proved that he made the request for the specific intention to sway the election, and to disprove that the request was for assistance in an ongoing investigation. That would be very difficult to prove beyond speculation.
The only fact at this point is that he made the request as the Chief executive officer, and it was perfectly, as such, legal for him to do so.
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.
Actually, that was not proven by the Mueller investigation, your opinion notwithstanding.
The “fact” is that is exactly why the founding fathers gave congress a means to remove a president who is abusing his power.

Yes, and it is a fact that Congress can abuse that means. It all finally comes down not necessarily to the merits or facts of the case, but to the number of votes.

The exchanges show a senior diplomat saying it would be "crazy" to withhold military aid to Ukraine for Mr Trump's political gain in the 2020 election.
US law bans soliciting foreign help for electoral purposes. Must just be another liberal plant out to delegitimize the election

But that's not whataboutism?
P.S., before the election, he ran Kushner Companies, Observer Media, and founded an online real estate investment platform. And unlike Hunter, never got caught snorting cocaine. Nice try.

And here's what former Google CEO said about him...
"According to former Google CEO Eric Schmidt (who worked on technology for Hillary Clinton's campaign), Kushner's role in the 2016 election was its biggest surprise. Schmidt told Forbes, "Best I can tell, he actually ran the campaign and did it with essentially no resources."[63] Federal Election Commission filings indicate the Trump campaign spent $343 million, about 59 percent as much as the Clinton campaign.["
Kushner ran the campaign...remind me Pete, how did that turn out?
