The democrats are accusing Trump of soliciting "foreign interference" in the 2020 election by asking the Ukraine to investigate Burisma. How is investigating Burisma the same as investigating Joe Biden? I'm not seeing the connection. No wonder the voters are rejecting the democrat's inane coup plot, and as Professor Turley explained, it is the democrats in the House that are abusing their power, not Trump.
House Democrats' impeachment report accuses Trump of obstruction, other misconduct
Democrats on Tuesday
publicly released a new report accusing President Donald Trump of soliciting Ukraine to interfere in the 2020 election for his benefit and obstructing the impeachment inquiry in the House of Representatives.
The 300-page report alleges a quid pro quo scheme in which Trump “conditioned official acts on a public announcement by the new Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky, of politically-motivated investigations” into former Vice President Joe Biden — a top Democratic presidential candidate — and his son Hunter.
“In pressuring President Zelensky to carry out his demand, President Trump withheld a White House meeting desperately sought by the Ukrainian President, and critical U.S. military assistance to fight Russian aggression in eastern Ukraine,” the report says.
Here's another article with the same accusation:
House Democrats conclude Trump solicited foreign interference in 2020
WASHINGTON – Three House committees investigating the potential impeachment of President Donald Trump uncovered a months-long effort "to use the powers of his office to solicit foreign interference on his behalf in the 2020 election," according to their draft report released Tuesday.
Let's take a poll....
1. Yes, investigating Burisma is equated to investigating the bidens. If you read President Trump's call notes, he never mentioned corruption and mentioned the Bidens being investigated.
All US Diplomats and Giuliani and Sondland etc, ALL EQUATED an investigation in to Burisma MEANT the Bidens. They all testified, under oath, that Burisma investigation MEANT the Biden investigation.
2. The pro quo for the DC invite and security aid, relied on an announcement in to Burisma and THE BIDENS..... and Giuliani wrote the announcement that the Ukraine President or Prosecutor General was suppose to use in their announcement on CNN, and it was focused on the Bidens.
When law enforcement is doing an investigation of any possible corruption, they do NOT MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT to the target in the PUBLIC. it is CLEAR as DAY, the corrupt intentions of the announcement requirement.
3. Giuliani is heading this investigation push of the Bidens and he stated himself, as the campaign lawyer for the president, he is doing this all for Trump, on a personal basis.
4. There was no need for the Ukraine to actually investigate Burisma/ Biden for the money to be released or the covetted DC meeting,
ONLY THE ANNOUNCEMENT of the investigation of Bidens on TV was necessary....
NOT the investigation itself or proof that the Ukraine was going after the corruption at Burisma....ONLY THE ANNOUNCEMENT, is what Ambassador Sondland testified to....
5. The Defense dept cleared the money to be released due to no corruption, after a 3 month investigation in June 2019
6. If the president was actually concerned with American corruption occurring in the Ukraine with the Bidens and Crowdstrike, then the president would have gone the LEGAL ROUTE, through our signed agreement with the Ukraine,
And used the DOJ/FBI along with the Ukraine's Prosecutor general as the agreement spells out, to investigate corruption,
instead of using Giuliani, the two corrupt goons originally from the ukraine and the soviet union, with John Solomon and Victoria and Joe Digenova , all behind the scenes and undisclosed sources of John Solomon's who fed him his garbage that he reported on... and with the DiGenova's played guests on FOX OPINING ON THE TOPIC LIKE THEY WERE NOT REALLY involved....
This all had POLITICAL purpose and POLITICAL gain for president Trump and was not for the USA.... it was for his personal gain to do all of the above, in the manner they did.
Yes, investigation in to Burisma, MEANT the Bidens to everyone involved.
