I'm outta here

Lol the wall is such a stupid waste of money

I can't believe it

It's going to do almost nothing to curb illegal immigrants

And that's a fact

@Cobra Commander certainly. But he did ask them to investigate Biden.

Which would be illegal in this case.

Considering he is a political opponent.

If it triggers you, it's money well spent

Just like the affordable healthcare act

If he asked zelenskey to investigate Biden to win the 2020 election then yes that would be a problem, but he didn't actually do that, he asked him to look into the crowdstrike situation. Investigating corruption in another country that may involve Joe Biden isn't the same as investigating Biden solely to knock out an opponent, it's a matter of intent. And also there isn't anything that's illegal about that that I know of even if that was his intent (surprisingly), it's occured before.

It can be considered questionable timing, yeah, but you can't peg this as a crime considering what we know of the situation (so far)

@Cobra Commander is lying.

First of all, trump didn’t mention crowdstrike, he only mentioned Biden

The crowdstrike thing is totally fabricated too, but that’s a different thing

Asking a foreign government to investigate your political rival’s family is illegal.

Yes he did mention crowdstrike, read the transcript.

Doing it as part of an explicit quid pro quo is SUPER illegal

Quote it. And it wasn’t a transcript

"I would like you to do us a favor though because our country has been through a lot and Ukraine knows a lot about it. I would like you to find out what happened with this whole situation with Ukraine, they say Crowdstrike... "

Also there was no promise of something in return, so it literally is not an explicit quid pro quo.

My mistake, he did mention crowdstrike. He also specifically mentions Biden

Yeah. Once, for both Joe and hunter, in the second half of a single paragraph

The Ukrainian President asks for aid, and trump says “ I would like a favor though”

That is an explicit quid pro quo

You’ve got to squint till your eyes are closed to see it any other way

No, because it's not treated as being a conditional of aid. Nor did Trump make it out to be this way, and the Ukrainian president didint eem this to be threatening on any way

It is explicitly conditional.

It literally is not.

“I would like you to do us a favor though”

Literally a quid pro quo

Yeah that's not conditional.

What

That is 100% conditional

What are you talking about.

That’s what that means

He literally asked "if you could look into it" after talking about Biden.

“Can I have a have a coffee “yes I would like $2 though”

That is how a quid pro quo works

Did you see Chris Christie? Where he was like “it would only be a quid pro quo if trump uses the word favor or somethomg”
