Yet not a single iota of curiosity as to why the investigation into the crackhead Hunter Biden was deep sixed....The WSJ has it just a bit more nuanced..which is to say..yeah, Trump put the screws on Ukraine..but No, there was no Quid Pro Quo offered.
sleazy..yeah...illegal...IMO..no.
WSJ News Exclusive | Trump Repeatedly Pressed Ukraine President to Investigate Biden’s Son
"President Trump in a July phone call repeatedly pressured the president of Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden’s son, according to people familiar with the matter, urging Volodymyr Zelensky about eight times to work with Rudy Giuliani on a probe that could hamper Mr. Trump’s potential 2020 opponent.
“He told him that he should work with [Mr. Giuliani] on Biden, and that people in Washington wanted to know” if his lawyer’s assertions that Mr. Biden acted improperly as vice president were true, one of the people said. Mr. Giuliani has suggested Mr. Biden’s pressure on Ukraine to fight corruption had to do with an investigation of a gas company for which his son was a director. A Ukrainian official this year said he had no evidence of wrongdoing by Mr. Biden or his son, Hunter Biden.
Mr. Trump in the call didn’t mention a provision of U.S. aid to Ukraine, said this person, who didn’t believe Mr. Trump offered the Ukrainian president any quid-pro-quo for his cooperation on any investigation."
I'm not going to take RT for anything other than what it is..the propaganda arm of Putin.
that being said..it's clear to me that none deals with the Ukrainians or the Russians or anyone in that part of the world without it coming back to haunt them. i hope that some are taking note...and vowing to let the whole area go fuck itself..and not spend one US dollar..no matter the promised return.
