Dude he held congress allocated funds to Ukraine just to get dirt on Joe Bidden who is his Democratic opponent in the Presidential run which is a high crime in itself. He's soliciting the help of another nation to help rig the american election for the second time. The first was with Russia in 2015 campaign/2016 elections. He has also defiles all congress subpoena to the white house urging all Important KEY PLAYERS like Mulvenay and Bolton and 10 other white house officials to not only release documentations to congress but to also boycott the whole process. We can agree that this is not a trait seen in an innocent man.

So he should go to prison for asking to investigate why the ex vice president's son got a job at a Ukranian oil company job when he has no oil company job experience. I can see impeaching Trump if he was on was on a killing spree killing all blacks in America like a Hitler. I consider that high crimes and misdemeanor. But Trump has been letting blacks out jail, who got life for smoking weed and other petty drug crimes and giving them jobs.


CharleyBright:
Donald Trump has committed serious crimes against the US State that when he goes to trial for it, he will rot in Jail.
American Legislators were initially caught in a cross roads as to whether to investigate and push for impeachment OR overlook allegations and save the sanctity of American Presidency .
But evidences emanating against Trumps are too enormous to be overlooked. And Trump is not even helping matters with his untouchable ego .
He has fired almost 70% of his key staff.
And these are people who knows him completely and did dirty jobs for him.
You can't keep firing your inner cabinet and think you won't be hurt.
He would be shocked the people that will testify against him.
He should know when to keep his silly mouth shut.

It depend on how far back one wants to go as far as the party who do well well in midterms. My reference to midterms were relative to turnouts, as GOP tend to do better when turns are low and midterms and off-cycle elections are low turnout elections.

Agreed, the Democrats have to defend more seat in Red districts that Trump won, but if you combined that with the districts that GOP have to now give up because of the gerrymandering, I think the Democrats will still keep the House in 2020.

The Senate are highly favored to keep the Senate in 2020, only about 4 GOP Senators are in competitive races.

For the Presidency, Trump is still favored to win, that is because of the power of the incumbency and the fact that the economy is doing well. The US economy is cyclical, which means years of uptrend are immediately followed by years of downtrend...The current uptrend started with the Obama bailouts, but no one knows when they will end. So, Predicting the POTU election outcome now will be challenging, but the Democrats will help their chances, if Biden or Pete is nominated, Warren will be a drag on their hopes.

I think both parties are jittery, Trump truly wanted to get dirty on Biden from a foreign government; agreed he did not get it, until he was caught, but if he thinks the elections are in the bags, he wouldn't be doing that.
when was the last recession? 2008 hahahaha

On why the president decided to ask the Ukraine president to look into Joe Biden was because of the Video that was released after he announced that he will be running for president. In that video he bragged about withholding I billion dollars of aid to the Ukraine except they Fire a prosecutor investigating the company his son was working in. In which is a crime called quid pro quo. The company was in Ukraine not in the US. His father was the Vice president and in charge of Ukraine matters.

On the Nepotism part. The president can appoint anybody who he deems fit for the Job and in my view, his daughter and her husband are doing well.

On the Guilliani part, he is going to appear before the senate judiciary to explain his dealings with Ukraine and talk about his findings of his investigation. So we will see what comes out.

Yes, you might not like the president, but the seat he occupies and the US constitution requires him to look into corruption before he gives tax payers money to other countries, somewhat it will not be wasted.

Yes, the majority can do what they want but it should fair and according to the rules and constitution.

Previous Presidents have exerted executive privileges over subpoenas and they have gone to court to settle disputes. So it is the process.

When The democrats were asked why they didn't go to the court. They said there is no time. So they want to impeach the president quick without following th the rules.
The president has the right to challenge subpoenas which is meant to be settled in court.

You are right, but the question is why did he not alert the FBI or CIA, you can't secretly ask a foreign President to investigate a person who just announced to be president, he has no autonomous power to do that. That is an abuse of office, and to make matter worse, he clearly said he doesn't owe anyone any explanations for his actions, that is wrong in a Democratically run country, secondly, Trumps call record shows that he didn't talk about Biden been corrupt, he only said he wanted him to be investigated and that they should find something against Biden, and he specifically asked for a favour, anybody who hears that word favour in politics knows its meaning. Thirdly, why did he withhold the funds that has been approved? He released the funds in 2017 and 2018 respectively, why change in 2019??

Unlike 3rd World Countries many law makers endeavour to uphold the laws of the land in obodo oyinbo.
trump has constantly and consistently violated the consistution of the greatest country in the world ( USA ) this represents a huge threat to democracy, allies, the world economy and must be addressed even if most think it's a waste of time.

Clinton's Impeachment
The republican majority senate was set to impeach Bill Clinton like the house of congress until the Billionaire owner of the Hustler Magazine ( similar magazine to Playboy ) took out ads in the paper that If any Hypocrite in the Senate Impeached Bill Clinton , he had proof and will expose all their extramarital affairs and shenanigans. He boldy said "Let who is without SIn Cast the first STone " and we will see.
Suddenly like magic, many absconded from voting with various excuses. So Bill Clinton survived

Yes, in the call transcript, the US president said that Attorney General will contact him on the matter. So the AG is the head of the justice department and will follow the appropriate channels in carrying out the investigation.

If anyone is involved in corruption, he can't be exempted from investigation because he is running for president.

Trump was secretly investigated by the FBI under the Obama administration for possible ties with Russia and they solicited help from countries like England, Australia, Italy etc...

The FISA abuse report that came out this month documented that the FBI under the Obama administration used a fake dossier written by an ex British spy who was payed by the DNC and Hillary Clinton to find dirt on then Candidate Trump, as a basis to continue to get warrants from the judges of a secret court to investigate Trump before he was elected and after.

They falsified an email and told lies to the Judges.

The act of withholding aid in order to get something done in return is called quid pro quo which is a crime. That was what Joe Biden bragged about doing.

You are right, no president should be involved in the abuse of power. But he should carry out his duty as president fairly and as the constitution empowers him.

In which is a crime called quid pro quo. The company was in Ukraine not in the US. His father was the Vice president and in charge of Ukraine matters.

It is obvious you are not aware that Joe Biden was a VP and does not have the exclusive powers to unilaterally withhold such funds rather he was carrying out a unanimous decision made by the US and it's EU counterparts which has been overstated to debunk the new narratives guiliani gave to trump as his defense after being caught with this shakedown scheme


On the Nepotism part. The president can appoint anybody who he deems fit for the Job and in my view, his daughter and her husband are doing well.

The arguement is that Hunter Biden has no experience for being in a board of a company that has nothing to do with United State's but find nothing wrong in the nepotistic acts of the president to appoint his unqualified daughter and son in-law into key government positions where they have no iota of experience on.
If that is not Hypocrisy then we are all being deliberately delusional.


On the Guilliani part, he is going to appear before the senate judiciary to explain his dealings with Ukraine and talk about his findings of his investigation. So we will see what comes out.

He refused to come to Congress when subpoena to answer questions over his dirt digging of the bidens in Ukraine from corrupt individuals of which two of his corrupt sources are already indicted in the SDN and are currently facing charges. There is no legality in illegality.

Yes, you might not like the president, but the seat he occupies and the US constitution requires him to look into corruption before he gives tax payers money to other countries, somewhat it will not be wasted.
[b]
If you have been following the inquiry and informations giving by the trump administration, Ukrain has met all standards of scrutiny and there was no reason giving till date why Donald Trump withheld congressional approved funds meant for Ukraine and this is the reason Donald Trump barred Mulvaney, Pompeo and members of his budget team from testifying before congress on why the funds where withheld since all oversight administrators have all said that Ukraine has met all obligations demanded of it and they even don't know why Donald Trump all of a sudden stopped the funds from going to Ukraine.

An innocent mind will provide facts of why he withheld the funds and not hide the facts but he needed to block these guys from testifying because if they do, they will obviously say the truth since they will be under oath and won't want to go to jail for Trump and if they testify and say the Truth then Trump's presidency is done, even the Republicans like the Senate president don't want to call these guy's because they know it will be game over.[/b]

Yes, the majority can do what they want but it should fair and according to the rules and constitution.

Donald Trump refused to send exculpatory evidence that would exonerate him rather he sent his attorney to send a stupid letter to congress that they won't participate in the impeachment inquiry so what other fair process are you talking about?

Previous Presidents have exerted executive privileges over subpoenas and they have gone to court to settle disputes. So it is the process.

No president has ever instructed their cabinet members not to provide evidences that will set the president free during an impeachment inquiry, no president has ever refused to participate in an impeachment inquiry about itself and besides, impeachment is a political process and not a judicial one so asking the Democrats to go to court to compel Donald Trump and his cohorts to present facts that exonerates them? That's ludicrous

When The democrats were asked why they didn't go to the court. They said there is no time. So they want to impeach the president quick without following th the rules.

They said it will drag into the next election year and secondly, impeachment is a political process.

The president has the right to challenge subpoenas which is meant to be settled in court.

The president did not challenged any subpoena in court, that's very misleading of you rather the president through his attorney wrote to congress that they won't participate and that non of those subpoenaed should honor it hoping that the Democrats will go to court to enforce the subpoena which Donald Trump wanted to use as a delay tactic but the Democrats outsmarted him by not challenging his decisions in court but proceeded with other members of Trump's cabinet members that defied trump's order for them not to honor the subpoena and came forward and gave account of what they knew.
These are the facts.
