There's nothing illegal about what Trump did. The DOJ is infested with coup plotters. You would scream bloody murder if Trump did exactly what you propose.So you agree Quid Pro Joe and his crackhead son need to be investigated for the millions crackhead was paid for a no-show job he was unqualified for while Quid Pro was in charge of billions of our tax dollars going to the corrupt regime in the Ukraine, rightFor crying out loud, you people were bitching for five years because McConnell stated he wanted to see DumBama as a one-term President. Here you have a guy trying to undermine the Trump presidency, and no problem at all. Why? Because he's a Republican.
I could only imagine if we did anything like this to Obama. There would have been riots in the street.Seems like THAT is what happened. There was no "Original Crime" here to merit the Muller farce. With Nixon there was a burglary. With Whitewater there was a Land Fraud deal. Here? Nothing.
Investigations don't start out with the assumption of a crime - they start out to investigate whether or not a crime took place or, for that matter, wrong doing of some sort. Given that Russian interference was confirmed, multiple times, and weakness' in our electoral systems and that of other nations, exposed - an investigation was absolutely merited. It did not have to find a crime, but it did need to occur.
Or are you a ginormous hypocrite?
IF there is evidence to support an investigation, go for it. But do it legally through appropriate channels (Congress, DoJ). Just like any normal investigation is done outside of Trumpworld.
That part largely opinion. Abuse of power is not explicitly defined in any laws. Nor are "high crimes and misdemeanors".
What you are hanging your hat on is that if didn't commit a technical "crime" he did nothing wrong. Really? That is a dangerous path to go.
Are you going to be happy when some future Dem Prez scoundrel attempts to strong arm a foreign government into investigating his personal political rival in an upcoming election? I don't think so. And I wouldn't be either.
That is what makes you guys so dangerous. You are willing to accept this.
Damn straight. These guys will howl like wounded wolves if a democrat comes in as president and decides to investigate and jail every republican in office because he thinks its in the best interest of the country, but are more than glad to support trump and barr doing the crap they are now.
