Conversely, do enough bad shit, it increases the probability that you seal your own fate. It's generally better to have leaders and others serving the public, who have exceptionally high levels of integrity. Narcissists don't make particularly good specimens of those that will put the greater good before their own. Free of remorse, they'll use you as you are worthless once they have no further gains to take.

Yep. I am hearing from commentators with the inside line that if impeachment were by secret ballot there are 29 or 30 republicans would vote to convict in The Senate, but because it is an open vote they will nearly all toe the party line.

So much for the leaders of the Free World and Home of The Brave.

and he has basically admitted it, and tried the "well what about them!" excuse/defence......

if even half of what the whistleblower said is true (and none of what they have said isn't true so far).... then he should be done for!

trump is going to take down barr.... rudy is blaming "state"... which is going to take down pompeo.... and if pence knew of the cover up he would be done for as well.....

I actually think this one is a stretch.

You would have to be some sort of nut job to think that Trump was in the wrong for bringing up the fact that bidens son had interests in ukraine and the prosecuter lost his job for looking into the interests, and Trump asking if that was all above board and if no pressure was put on them by america.

I dont know how people who dont like trump can twist logic in their head to make that mean trump should be impeached.

Is that what the whistleblower said? or did they say they had no access to the call but said details of the call were hidden?

You assume pressure was put on them to open an investigation with funds witheld, not because that is what the whistleblower said, but its because its the scenario you imagine happening because you dont like him.

They've not really been the key instigators of this though.

There are official channels that are used to investigate citizens but Trump's approach potentially smells badly of him being up to no good, for his own political ends. Pelosi has been highly reluctant to initiate an investigation but this likely action has taken things too far.

And equally he could say that you see things your way because you like the Donald. Trump and Boris both suffer from delusions of grandeur but Trump is a bully and doesn’t care about anything while Boris wants to be liked even though he has been bad! He is like a petulant child who needs reassurance from his parents before he goes back to kicking his sister under the table and claiming it wasn’t him and she’s making it up.

interesting spin....

one slight flaw in your arguement....

The transcript the whitehouse let out of the call.....

the fact that trump has basically said that he did.......

you might want to read the 1st paragraph!

"In the course of my official duties, I have received information from multiple U.S. Government officials that the President of the United States is using the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign country in the 2020 U.S. election."

"

yeah? how is that a flaw in my argument? The person also admitted that they never heard the call, they only knew it had not passed into the normal archive and had been pushed to top secret.

What he said to them is that they are corrupt, that they opened an investigation into bidens son, biden contacted them, and the prosecuter got sacked and the next prosecuter dropped the investigation. He probably went on to discuss top secret info in regard to what the money should be used for, terror threats etc.

Now if you dont like trump, that 1 minute section sounds like a "investigate bidens son or get no money". But if you like him it sounds like "You guys are corrupt and need to look into it".

The money was cleared for them and given to them anyway, so you can not say the money was held until they opened an investigation. And the whistleblower interfered with elections 2020 more than trump did, as the white house put it into a top secret archive, this whistleblower brought it up.

the best arguement being spun is that the information is 2nd hand..... the whistleblower admits all the info is 2nd hand on page 1!!!

people are trying the attack the credibility of the whistleblower (which isn't working when the DNI say this people acted in good faith and followed all the procedures to the letter of the rules)

what people who are spinning aren't doing is attacking the info in the document, because so far its all be true.....

the biden/ukraine stuff is a red herring, because what people fail to also mention are a few things...

a) it wasn't just the US that had concerns over the then ukrainian prosecutor... it was also the EU and the IMF.... and ALL of them said they would withold under he was removed....

b) when the ukrainians did another investigation it was found that the former prosecutor (who all the right now seem to want to back) was actually found to be HINDERING the then investigation.......

but hey... if you are going to tell the story.... you may as well tell the whole story

Well actually the best argument is that Biden said he did nothing wrong and that Ukraine politicians are not corrupt, that anti corrupt people were brought in, and that is what he contacted them about.

So why are they afraid of trump asking a question? if they are anti-corruption then Trump holds no sway with them, all they can possibly do by looking into it is confirm that there was no case there, and then all Trump could say was "I asked them to look into it, they did, they assured me there was no case to answer".

The whole claim Trump can hold sway with Ukraine, is built on the basis that the Ukraine is still corrupt, in which case, we need answers about Bidens son, as corrupt people are in power there.

This impeachment process may well be completed before the US enters election year.

The new question should be how much of the GOP is trump going to throw under the bus and take down with him?

Any opinions on that anyone?

I was going to say something similar - everyone will be used by him for maximum benefits only for him. If sacrificing any of them, to help to keep him afloat, seems right, he'd kill the lot of them. As with the ex-lawyer, he seems to have the knack of keeping them exposed, just in case. Perhaps a little like all of those business suppliers who were always the losers in his business failure ventures - I guess they were largely started to ensure others paid for his ego trips.

Ivanka is probably safe. He has no interest in the party, unless it can further his re-election - happy to use and dispose of them all for gain Giuliano probably has little value, now he's not in politics, so would happily be disposed of.

It's going to depend on whether the Republican led house votes to impeach.

And there is reportedly another whistle blower in the IRS who says there has been serious misconduct in regards to an IRS audit of Trump and The Trump Organisation and another cover-up.

Fact A. The Democratic front runner to take on Trump in 2020 Biden threatened Ukraine with withholding $1 billion in loan guarantees unless they sack the prosecutor investigating the Gas company that had paid Bidens son $50k a month for basically doing nothing at all .

Fact B . Trump asks the newly elected ‘anti corruption’ President of Ukraine to reopen the investigation into the company that was paying Bidens son all that money for doing nothing at all and withholds $100m destined for arms for about a week .

The American people are not as stupid as some people on here think and can see Biden is even more corrupt than Hilary Clinton and that really takes some doing .

Fact A+ It was US and EU policy to remove the Ukrainian "anti-corruption" minister because he was...corrupt.

Fact B+ It is not US policy to investigate Joe Biden's son or get dirt on a Presidential competitor.

Is the son of a rich man slightly dodgy? Yes, just like the junior Trumps.

Is it corrupt to use US national leverage to get dirt on a competitor. I'd say yes. What would you say?

The American people may or may not be stupid.

You seem to have different definitions of corrupt depending on whom you are talking though.

So the latest in the Trump saga comes in 2 parts...

Firstly his lawyers (in the NY tax records case) have argued that as President he can't be prosecuted or investigated by any federal, state or local law enforcement agency. So taken aback by the assertion was the NY judge they were asked did this assertion extend to his claim he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and they said yes. So effectively Trump is now claiming he is totally above the law.

Then, a group of GOP lawmakers burst into a closed impeachment hearing that was being heard in one of the Congress Skiff's, taking mobile phones and other electronic devices into the room with them. (A skiff is a secure room and only authorised secure electronic devices are allowed in them. In fact it is a criminal offence to take anything unauthorised into one).

Seems the GOP are going to the mattresses for their Don.
