A few things:
- Even if Biden is guilty, what Trump is doing is clearly illegal, as said by everyone looking at the law
- GOP was supporting Biden on this issue at the time
- Even the remove prosecutor in Ukraine says there is no Biden story here.
- gfosco 7y agoYou say "clearly illegal" like it means something, or it's true. At best, you could say that you think it is illegal. What law? Where is the violation? "by everyone looking" is another silly falsity. Lots of people looking at this see nothing even remotely illegal.

- gfosco 7y agoThat's a fine law. However, there's a vast distance between that quote and convincing evidence of a violation in this instance.
- markdown 7y ago> However, there's a vast distance between that quote and convincing evidence of a violation in this instance. Of course there isn't any evidence that you'll accept. Nevermind that the whole world saw him solicit Russian assistance in hacking his opponent during the last elections and that the video evidence of him doing so is available for anyone to view at any time.
