    @don_dunstan So what if the whistleblower was a former Obama official. Forget about Officer Vidmans testimony or the fact many Rrpublicans think that Trump is wrong.

    Maybe what the Bidens had done was wrong, the point is that it has been proven that Trump has bteached the Constitution in making aid approved by congress conditional on essentially a foreign power spying on a US citizen. But hey those pesky Democrats hey.

    Trump has absolutely no right to question Biden or anyone else given his track record.

    As regards to the Democratic nominee, the only ones I would like to see is Sanders, Warren or Kamala Harris. Sod the rest including Clinton if she runs. Republican lite candidates can go and jump as far as I am concerned.

    So glad you are giving Joe and Hunter Biden a free pass to use US taxpayer money however they like in the corrupt pursuit of money abroad, I'm sure they'll be really glad that there's people like you who support their overt criminality. The Bidens can blackmail and corruptly obtain influence any way they like hey - but how dare Trump ask a foreign official if there's any basis to it! The fact that the Democrats are trying to force through this massive own-goal goes to show how un-electable they are.

    Get used to Trump, he's going to be there for another five years.

    If he simply asked, then who cares? The problem was the Trump thought it was a good idea to threaten negative consequences if said foreign power refused/declined.

    Good to know you're giving Trump a free pass to blackmail whoever he likes.
