I think the problem people have is that below the second paragraph, it’s entirely whataboutism that distracts from the discussion rather than adds to it.

- tomohawk 7y agoWhataboutism would be bringing up something like President Obama directing hundreds of billions of dollars to the Iranian government and saying this really doesn't compare. The provided examples are related to previous activities by high government officials in regards to Ukraine, indicating a pattern of activity between the officials of both states. Does the current presidents behavior fall outside of this? And the Biden's behavior is part of the whole issue. Is a president wrong to, as part of the treaty signed by both parties, bring up something that looks pretty rotten? All of these things need to be considered together.
