Can you imagine a worse reason to start a civil war?

Trump just has no filter, right on the south lawn when asked what he wanted from Ukraine, he admitted he wanted Biden investigated and had the stupidity to ask China do the same. Are you guys ignoring the obvious, this clown will deal out national security in exchange for four more years. The stupid arrogant filterless crap coming out of his mouth never ends and just when we think it can’t possibly get worse it does. I just can’t see republicans holding down this Trump island for long before defections begin.

He has no filter, none whatsoever. He also says a lot of stupid, arrogant crap. Does anyone deny this? The remedy for all of that, is winning the next election, not in-doing the previous one.

I don't see him as a national security threat.

Favors are a funny thing, once you have a few foreign powers doing you favors, they are going to request you do the same. Most likely those requests will not be in plain sight or public, but could very well impact our national security.

And Trump is the first President to ask favors, of the kind that would make the person granting the favor, entitled to a favor in return? That doesn't happen every day in politics?

"Favors" requested through MLAT's are not personal political favors. Wikipedia: "A mutual legal assistance treaty (MLAT) is an agreement between two or more countries for the purpose of gathering and exchanging information in an effort to enforce public or criminal laws . . . for requesting and obtaining evidence for criminal investigations and prosecutions."

Partners in MLAT are obligated to provide assistance in those specific matters. It's not a scratch my back I'll scratch yours situation. It's a treaty obligation.
