The State Dept. and Ambassador's are there to advise and nothing more. The ultimate policy decisions are made by those elected by We the People............Under Obama lethal weapons weren't given to Ukraine yet under Trump they have been given. Night and day in regards to real Military help.It certainly wasn't the strongest argument Schiff has put forward so far. It taught me something, though.Her testimony reveals how devoid of class the blob is. But that is something all of us already knew.
Her testimony was nothing.
Worthless.
She should save it for her therapist.
Zero to do with anything regarding impeachment.
All witnesses so far, waste of time, waste of taxpayer dollars.
It showed me that Trump was (is) siding with the corrupt Russian oligarchs that the State Department and the country of Ukraine has been trying to get rid of. As Kent said, you can't go after corrupt oligarchs without pissing some people off.
So why is the President on their side?
I just got convinced, after three years of giving Trump the benefit of the doubt on the Russia thing, that he is playing in their corner. He may be an unwitting tool, but he's clearly on the side of the boys with the big wallets who don't blink twice when bribery or blackmail is the tool of choice. And Trump came damned close to using those tools himself. And called it "beautiful" and "perfect."
The American people knew before we elected him that he had the morals of a sewer rat. That's no big surprise. What was brought home in Yanokovich's testimony yesterday is that Trump is also on the wrong side here, and that doesn't matter if you are a Democrat, a Republican or a Green Party fan. Will I vote for a man who says it was "very unfair" that Shokin was fired? OF COURSE the State Department and the Ambassador aren't going to agree with that. Do you?
It is within the power of the executive to ask for cooperation on 2016 election meddling. And to apply pressure to foreign gov'ts over issues of State.............and in this case the real issue was the sell of advanced weapons to China................That could advance their military.............Part of the reason for a PAUSE on aid. Not to mention that many other countries aid was PAUSED ALSO............But that part isn't being brought up because the left controls who get's to testify in this Farse.......
I'd remind you that the Ukrainian Courts RULED that they Influenced the U.S. election in favor of Hillary when they gave a DNC operative information from a Black Book that wasn't authorized............I don't see an investigation into that OR THE ENGINES TO CHINA..........
Enjoy the show.
