The whole thing's really bizarre anyway. The opposition political party's Congressional spokesmen have made clear, many times, that they can impeach for any reason they choose. There have already been articles of impeachment introduced in the House of Representatives by a member who openly says that impeachment is in order because they don't like the president, that's all.

Now that they have hit on a new gimmick (Ukraine), nothing actually changes, but we will go on talking here as though there are legitimate reasons for impeachment--or not--as each poster wants to argue it.
Just because the Republicans failed to impeach if and when they should have doesn’t mean the Democrats shouldn’t move forward with theirs.Listen to this about the Ukraine problem. Hillary and Obama have been guilty of the same and they were not impeached The Ben Shapiro Show.
I listened to some of it. The difference I see is that when Trump says corruption he's talking about investigating his own political opponent. When Biden talked about corruption it was about actual corruption.Listen to this about the Ukraine problem.

In the WH's talking points memo, they say that Zelenskyy was the first to mention Giuliani (why would he?), but that's not how it happens in these released notes.Immediately after the Ukrainian President says they want to buy more weapons, Trump says “I want you to do us a favor though” and asks them to investigate his enemies. If Trump thought this somehow exonerated him, he’s clearly off his meds.

The congress won't impeach Trump, it's a numbers game after all. The Republicans are not going to support an impeachment because they will forfeit their chances in the next election.
That's a strong tell. In semantics good and bad reverse because of two opposing perspectives. What Trump thinks of Shokin, good/bad, could reveal which side of the political war in Ukraine he is on Russia/Europe. But he also could just be uninformed.Donald also refers to the notoriously corrupt prosecutor as "a very good prosecutor" who was taken down by "very bad people".
If the impeachment process causes the courts to end the Whitehouse and DOJ stonewalling of all the investigations, it might make a difference. But his base is probably going to stick with him no matter how bad the evidence is against him. Even now they don't care that he violates campaign laws by asking that Ukraine investigate his opponent. Nonetheless, at least there is some check happening against lawlessness by some in congress who care about Democracy. Ultimately America will get what she votes for.The congress won't impeach Trump, it's a numbers game after all.

Are you talking about Trump's investigation into Biden?I see that the latest jargon ordered up by the DNC has been put to use already.
Who remembers some of the other ones--"millionaires and billionaires," "climate of corruption," and "Koch Brothers," for example. Everybody but everybody seemed to be using them for awhile as they were supposed to, but then the new one came along and poof, they were history.
Zelensky said that one of his aides had been talking to giuliani. And it's in the context of investigating political opponents of the president. Obviously, there's already been discussion through Giuliani concerning this matter prior to the phone call. Giuliani indicated the same in his many interviews on various news networks.In the WH's talking points memo, they say that Zelenskyy was the first to mention Giuliani (why would he?), but that's not how it happens in these released notes.
