Pompeo Cursed Out Reporter Who Pressed Him on Ukraine: ‘Do You Think Americans Care About Ukraine?’

Methinks you have been suckered by conservative propaganda.

 

Burisma was the launderer of the money. It's not like the government of Ukraine could cut a check directly to Joe Biden.

 

You are asserting that the cost is the same whether he is at the WH or at one of his golf courses. I am looking for you to provide some evidence to support that.

 

It's common sense. If you believe that Hunter got his job on his own volition, then I've got a good deal on a bridge that I own in San Francisco for you. If you can't see that it was clear and blatant corruption, then you're beyond reach.

 

In that instance, you intentionally edited out the portion of my post where I already explained explicit examples where your taxpayer dollars went to his resorts. You deleted those sections and then tried to claim that it cost taxpayers nothing.

 

There are hundreds. Here is just one.

Have you read the press release from Burisma when they hired him?

 

I'm not asserting that the cost is the same. I am asserting that those agents are paid whether they're protecting Trump on a golf course or whether they're on duty elsewhere.

By the way, did you complain about Obama's golf trips and trips to Hawaii and Obama's lavish trips abroad? Or is your outrage reserved for Trump?

 

Of course he got the job because Joe was/is his Old Man. That is what I said.....he was handed the job to open doors, just like why a great deal of Board appointments are made, especially in the US.

 

That looks like a dissertation about Trump withholding military aid. Am I really supposed to read all of that to try and find the point that you claim is there? Perhaps you would consider a link and then a copy/paste of an excerpt that makes your point rather than requiring the reader to try and find the point that you're trying to make.

 

So...let me get this straight.

Burisma Oil hired Hunter Biden in 2014 because that meant the international community would give the Ukrainian Government a Billion in loan guarantees in 2015 and the salary it gave to Hunter Biden was actually supposed to go to Joe Biden?

That makes sense to you?

 

With the understanding that they would be rewarded when U.S. aid money came in. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been hired. It was "quid pro quo".

 

I think you are wrong. about the costs, but others can decide. It is no biggy to me.

As for Obama. I don't care. He is fish 'n chip wrappings now.

 

Reckon you need to check the timeline.

 

Hunter got the job only because it was understood that U.S. aid would be coming and that a healthy portion of it would make its way to Burisma.

Do you believe that Hunter would have gotten the job if his dad wasn't a politician?

 

Ok, so you had NO PROBLEM with Obama doing the same thing that you're now attacking Trump for doing.

 

Haven't seen you criticize trump yet for objectively vacationing and golfing twice as often as Obama while sending your taxpayer dollars to his privately owner resorts.

Also, why the **** am I continuing with this line - it has literally zero to do with the topic of this thread.

Do you have anything you would like to say about Pompeo cursing out a reporter for having the audacity to ask the Secretary of State about the country he was about to visit and the country directly related to the impeachment of his boss?

 

No. I expect you to read it.

 

Not at all. Then, I had zero interest in US politics.

 

I am certain that the private company took a whole host of factors into consideration when they hired him.

Still not relevant to the topic of this thread though.

 

It's an unsubstantiated claim by a far-left reporter.

 

If Trump and his son had done this I'd be calling for their heads. Why tolerate blatant corruption? They engage in it because they know that folks like you will support them anyway. Why do you? Aren't there other Democrats that aren't engaged in rampant corruption that you could support while condemning the corruption of those that engage in it?

 

Maybe you can ask Pompeo.

 

Pompeo's statement does not deny the assertions surrounding the reporting on that issue or the confrontation in general.

 

Trump's Family is doing quite okay out of the fact that Daddy is POTUS, never you mind worrying about them, Buck.
