What are the Democrats afraid of?

Volker Testimony

They didn't release any of his testimony that I know of. They released a few text messages. Which Sondland and Tyler have so why doesn't the White House release them?

 

[Hank77]

The Republicans are calling for the release. Why not release it?

That isn't what I heard them say this morning. They were talking about releasing all the text messages rather than a few that we have seen.

Except . . . there aren't, hislegacy, only Trump failures. He is getting beat like a drum.

Trump 2020 Victory War Drum.

[Hank77]

Matt Gaetz has called for it also.

They and Trump want the name of the whistleblower , too. That one just makes me shake my head. What? There is a law to protect the identity of a whistleblower.

When did the public find out who the whistleblower was during the Nixon impeachment inquiry? Nixon had been dead for 11 yrs. before his name was revealed.

What are the Democrats afraid of?

A lot less than Donald is; he won't allow anyone to talk to Congress...

 

[JohnAshton]

Why do you say they failed? Seems to me they were quite successful in getting the information out to the public. Or do you think Hillary Clinton was elected President a few years back?

The investigations had nothing to do with her defeat. They helped her almost beat Trump.

 

[JohnAshton]

Why should Trump be impeached? In part, because . . .

 

[Mountainmanbob]

They helped her almost beat Trump.

Sounds like a good game of horseshoes.
Almost a ringer.

What are the Democrats afraid of?

During the congressional break, Republicans politicians should have be out bragging about the US economy, but because of the President's phone call to Ukraine, followed by his request for China to investigate Biden, they were hunkered down in their "foxholes" avoiding the media!

Three GOP politicians found the President's China request to investigate Biden so indefensible that they claimed it was all part of an elaborate hoax by Trump to dupe the press!

He is far away from the mark he was at on election day 2016, which is the point here. And he continues to lose ground as he flails away helplessly.

at some point people will just not believe them anymore

Back here in reality, on the subject of people not believing anymore :

Brutal new poll shows 3 in 10 Republicans support Trump impeachment push

There is a clear partisan split in the results, but 28 percent of Republicans said they support the House impeachment investigation — a 21-point jump from a Washington Post/ABC News poll in July — and 18 percent of Republicans want the House to "vote to remove Trump from office." Meanwhile, 86 percent of Democrats and 57 percent of independents support the impeachment investigation; 78 percent of Democrats and 49 percent of independents want the House to vote to evict Trump from the White House.​

 

[KCfromNC]

They and Trump want the name of the whistleblower , too. That one just makes me shake my head. What?

It is certainly the kind of behavior you'd expect from an innocent party. /s

 

[Always in His Presence]

So again - why not release the transcripts?

The President released the phone conversation - why not release the transcripts - they just ignore the issue like no one has asked, I think they are hoping it just goes away. Obviously, it's another fiasco

 

[KCfromNC]

So again - why not release the transcripts?

Why? The White House memo outlining the call where Donald attempts to trade a weapons deal for election interference is pretty cut and dried. Unless you're implying that White House memo is deceptive, what's the big deal?

 

[JohnAshton]

The transcripts are immaterial. Trump clearly tried to cut a deal with Ukraine for election interference.

 

[Always in His Presence]

No he did not clearly try to cut a deal. That is not what the President of the Ukraine said, in fact he said there was NO pressure.

Republican congressmen in the questioning of Volker said his testimony included information to support the President and that is why the Democrats didn’t not want to release it.

So why don’t they release it?

 

[JohnAshton]

Yes, clearly tried to cut a deal with Ukraine with Ukraine for election interference.

You are clearly denying the obvious.

 

[wing2000]

What is the Trump Administration afraid of by refusing to cooperate with the impeachment inquiry?

Note: Cooperation is not an option. The U.S. Constitution specifically gives sole authority to the US House of Representatives to impeach officers of the United States Government.

There are no if, and or buts.

Trump and his committee lapdogs can whine all they want, but in the end, they are Constitutionally bound to comply with impeachment inquiry.

 

[yeshuaslavejeff]

It may be deeper than that. I fear many Evangelicals think Trump is the 21st Century King Cyrus which I believe has led them to a great deception. But that's just my opinion.

Regardless of what Evangelicals or other groups think , in that direction or not, right or wrong, so what ?
We should simply do as the Father directs us, and not get entangled in such things.
