When a political opponent self-incriminates himself on public tv to corrupt and venal behavior, it is reasonable to expect the POTUS to direct an investigation.

Core of DPST argument is that those self-admitting corrupt behavior are immune to investigation because of "Politics".

Bullshit!

When Jimmy the Peanut withheld funds allocated by Congress to Nicaragua no dim-retards whined and cried about it -- let alone set about impeaching him. Originally Posted by I B Hankering

"President Donald Trump is withholding hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador because he believes that the three Central American countries are not doing enough to stem the flow of illegal migrants into the US.

The state department confirmed that the administration had informed Congress it would stop the aid. Two congressional aides said the administration said it was redirecting $550m in aid lawmakers had earmarked in the 2017 and 2018 budgets."

While I might not agree with doing this, Trump did not do this in order to gain possibly damning information on a political opponent.

But please answer my 2 questions.

Schitty has yet to uncover shit that substantively PROVES differently. All your ilk has is slander and innuendo.

let the DPST's shut it down
cnn can blame trump all they want - the truth of shutdown does filter down to rational folks over time.

It will come back to bite them.
OEB, this has absolutely nothing about Trump firing Marie Yovanovitch. As even she stated, he has the right to do so. To be honest, I'm not sure why she was being questioned.

As I said in my previous post:

"If the POTUS used his position and financial power of the U.S. to ask a foreign country to look into possible wrong-doings by someone, a someone who happens to be the leading opposition candidate in an upcoming election, and threatens to withhold monies allocated to that country by Congress, then I consider that to be inappropriate behavior by the POTUS."

So I have 2 questions for you:

1. Should the allegations by the whistle blower been investigated or should they have been ignored?

2. Do you consider it appropriate behavior for a POTUS to withhold Congress allocated funds from a foreign country in order to force that country to investigate a political opponent?

I am not saying Trump did #2 but rather if it was done, is it appropriate or inappropriate in your opinion? Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXX

Now the shithead is on to investigating if Trump lied to mullhead... this nonsense has been investigated add nauseam. These fuckers are as shameless as you are.

Why doesn't the house take an impeachment vote and send it to the Senate...why don't you tell us that SPEED.

The "whistle blower" is know to all...he's a leftwing political hack with an axe to grind. This dipshit started the whole thing and shithead said he would testify but that chickenshit knew exposing him would show this hit job for what it is.

Keep up the good work SPEED...we'll never figure out your political leanings...just like the LSM they are apolitical just like you SPEED.
So what is your question? A question ends with a question mark. I see no question mark in your post.

I did respond to your post in the other thread. No response from you. Originally Posted by SpeedRacerXXX

The fact is that you do not understand politics at a low level. You would rather simply accuse others of leaning politically in a direction with which you disagree and therefore the others are wrong.

I am through answering your ridiculous questions. When you start answering my questions I'll answer your questions.

What states that Trump lost in 2016 will he win in 2020?
