Gun to his head, I bet he admits he is a Democrat and hence is biased. Party over country.
Boldly speculated.
He did what he was supposed to do when he heard Trump's unAmerican bullshit - he went up the chain of command.
"unAmerican bullshit" is an opinion. Again, do you disagree that he is likely a Democrat? Looking into corruption in the Ukraine is best for the USA.
I think you're speculating that he is a Democrat, and engaging in character assassination when asserting he puts party before country.
You're fucking right it's an opinion that I believe using taxpayer money to extort a personal political favor from a foreign nation is "unAmerican".
#1) He worked for the Bidens as I understand it
And given his job would have been actively involved with them in their 'business' dealings, hence he is a compromised and easily blackmailed 'source' who can't be taken seriously re his opinions, which of course aren't evidence. All they have is biased opinions no evidence, no nothing. They will never get around to that Big Giant Impeachment Vote.
If he is guilty of the QPQ and is impeached and imprisoned, I still want to know if Biden when he was VP used his influence to make his son very wealthy. Do I have that right, yes or no?
Why else would he be dragging the dope head son around with him to foreign countries?
On Vindman:
Alex Vindmanās Impeachment Testimony Rested On His Personal Opinions
"The two portions preceded by my bracketed numbers are Vindmanās opinions. Letās analyze what he said. It is important to remember that he was not speaking off-the-cuff or just responding to questions. This was a carefully prepared opening statement that had been closely vetted by lawyers and others.
Regarding his first opinion, he says, āI did not think it was properā¦ā That is pure opinion, not fact. Moreover, if it is improper to ask a foreign government to investigate a U.S. citizen, that would no doubt come as a big surprise to many in government.
Vindmanās statement is, in short, an unfounded and unsupported opinion. And the notion that the president could not properly ask a foreign country to investigate a U.S. citizen who may have engaged in illegal activity is nonsense; Joe Biden does not get a pass from investigation just because he is candidate for the nomination of his party.
There is nothing improper or illegal about an investigation into potentially illegal actions, much less anything that rises to the level of a high crime or misdemeanor. The notion that it does is so much tommyrot.
So, absent personal knowledge of a high crime or misdemeanor, Vindmanās first personal opinion is immaterial. I think most voters not swirling around in the vortex of Trump hatred care more about the opinions of the president and the secretary of State than those of a mid-level officer, at least on this topic.
Vindmanās second opinion is that if Ukraine investigated the Bidens as President Trump suggested, it would lose the support of Democrats in Congress. That may well be, but in addition to being a personal opinion, it is a pure political concern. It is properly the concern of the presidents of the United States and of Ukraine.
If he disagrees with the presidentās approach and harbors a fear that Ukraine will lose Democrat votes if it investigates the Bidens, Vindmanās proper role is to give his best advice and then shut up. His proper role is not to volunteer to go before a congressional committee and complain about why he disagrees with the president."
... and more at the link. This is just a weasel who found himself being squeezed by politics and covering his own ass; what he feels guilty about is anyone's guess, mine being is he's worried about what Democrats may have on him personally.
Have you given thought to how many people you're going to need to smear?
