    I did. Thank you for pointing out that he made that statement a year previous, in 2018.

    I can help.

    So what you're telling us is...

    Biden threatened to withhold 1 billion dollars if the prosecutor wasn't fired, and the prosecutor who was hired after the old prosecutor was fired didn't find anything wrong.

    Is that your stance?

    Do you think Trump will be impeached?

    I don't even think it'll go to a floor vote.

    I won't say why yet though. But there you have it.

    Trump caught Biden extorting Ukraine and the Democrats are furious. So they launched another coup against him to try and stop him from looking into the corruption.

    Obama and his Administration had more scandals and cover ups than any Presidential cabinet in recent memory.

    The more that comes to light, the more we realize just how crooked these people were. He might just surpass the Clinton's if Trump gets more time to investigate.

    Uh huh.

    So we can assume the new prosecutor wanted to keep his job after he saw the old one get fired yeah?

    I think it will and impeachment articles, of which there will be 2 or 3, will pass.

    8 days ago · A new Suffolk University poll shows that the majority of American voters do not support a vote to impeach President Donald Trump. New poll not what Democrats hoped for on impeachment


    Leftists love them some polling. Until it doesn't go their way.

    Sure, you can make that assumption if you like, but would you mind going ahead and explaining the leverage that Biden (or his allies, I suppose) held over the new Ukrainian Prosecutor in 2019?

    Biden made the statement in January of 2018. The Ukrainian Prosecutor said he found zero evidence of wrongdoing in May of 2019.

    No, go ahead and explain it. What leverage does Biden, or his allies, have over the new Ukrainian Prosecutor in 2019.

    Wow.

    It's truly surprising that the new prosecutor wouldn't find anything after Biden got the old one fired for looking into it.

    Did Ukraine ever get weapon aid from the Obama administration?

    And that makes sense to you? Biden confessed to a crime, nearly 2 years ago, on tape...and there isn't a single domestic investigative agency which has filed an indictment?

    Does the Obama administration have that authority in 2019?
