According to their own logic, Trump should be immune, if Biden should be immune. Yet they demand Trump be investigated and demand that Biden should not be investigated, very interesting double standard they got going on there.

If there was nothing to it, and no wrongdoing, then why is the investigation plus 15 others being opened back up?
Trump wanted one, not 16.
2nd: Christ, you want to know exactly why a corrupt, failing state would open investigations related to one of the biggest shitshows in American history? I don't know, could be they're doubling down on Trump, figuring if he survives he'll look favorably on them. Or they're trying to show they're not as corrupt as everyone is saying.
But, you know, even IF the whole Biden allegation were true, it wouldn't change the fact that Trump was trying to get a foreign government to investigate his political rival. Are you claiming the 'possibility' of it being true negates the impropriety of Trump's act?
Meh, prove it was only about saving his son and no other reason, or you got nothing. Saying Biden definitely broke the law is as dumb as claiming Trump did, don't be engaging in a double standard just because the Dems are. There is no smoking gun on either side here, don't pretend there is.The Conservative wrote: Thu Nov 21, 2019 3:47 amNo, there is a not so thin line between negotiations and extortion.brewster wrote: Wed Nov 20, 2019 9:46 pm1st, you should be the last to be saying 'where there's an investigation there must be a crime', given your position.The Conservative wrote: Wed Nov 20, 2019 9:36 pm So answer my last question.

What Trump did was request that the Ukraine kept its promises, which was one of the stipulations for getting the money in the first place. As it was pointed out before, the US doesn't give money like that away for free.
What Biden did was to keep an investigation from happening. Which happen to be dealing with money laundering and the board of directors, which one of them happens to be his son.
This was extortion Plain and simple on Biden's part.
You really don't know when to stop, do you? Trump requested that the Ukraine keep it's promise to fight corruption by looking into some... To keep getting the money.
I can; the investigation was just brought back to life. With 15 others. All have to deal with money laundering and corruption.StCapps wrote: Thu Nov 21, 2019 3:52 amMeh, prove it was only about saving his son and no other reason, or you got nothing.

Investigations being conducted are not smoking guns. There is no evidence of guilt on either Biden or Trump's side.
Not a smoking gun. Getting paid is not a crime, that's evidence of someone else committing a crime to pay him, not evidence of Biden committing a crime.The Conservative wrote: Thu Nov 21, 2019 4:01 amhttps://tass.com/world/1090971StCapps wrote: Thu Nov 21, 2019 3:59 amBurisma being investigated for money laundering is not a smoking gun, anymore than Trump being investigated is a smoking gun.The Conservative wrote: Thu Nov 21, 2019 3:57 am

You have grounds for an investigation, but not proof of Biden's guilt. You are reaching almost as much as the Demohacks are, with claims of a smoking gun, not a good look. Enough of the obvious double standards dude, stop being triggered by Democrats into acting just like them only on the other side.
