The GOP is sadly silent on the fact that their dearest leader is attempting to bring foreign entities into our democratic processes. I propose that all of them that see no issue with this must pick a foreign country, go there and do their campaigning there.
And the Rump’s children are profiting from his position. But “nothing to see here”. What ever Biden did or did not do is irrelevant to the Rump’s indiscretions. The Rump is guilty of involving foreign countries in your election. (By the way, that is illegal.)
Whatever Biden’s son did or did not do — whatever that was, it TOTALLY exonerates Trump of Treason, perjury, abuse of his office, and all his other crimes.
By all means, leave us have Congress formally investigate and prosecute or impeach any government employee or relative that has violated the Constitution.
No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.
As did Mike Douglas, Jane and Peter Fonda, Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez, George W and Jeb Bush, Kyle Petty, Dale Earnhardt Jr., and a few million other people who’s fathers had any power in their community. Now, where was the abuse of power in the deal, hmm?
Wow, Mike’s so programmed by his overlords, he is putting out debunked conspiracy theories. Of course, since he’s on the “D” list of distributions from the RNC, he’s again days late and dollars short. Must be sad to be considered the also-ran even by the group whose nether regions he has his lips firmly implanted to (which may explain the poor depictions).
Mr. Lester and the rest of the Trumpers are in full-blown panic mode. 11 years of exclusive focus on deflection away from the fact christian conservatives have absolutely nothing of their ideology to promote to the public has left them nothing but a neurosyphilitic racist and an almost 100% corrupt GOP. There is nothing left for them.
If Ivanka confirmed the rumor that Daddy took her virtue at age 13, Trump supporters like Lester would try to change the subject and say that Bill Clinton is not Chelsea’s father (oh snap, they already did…)
Good one. Every sin of the left is turned into an accusation toward the right. Who first enlisted foreign interference in our politics? The Clinton campaign. Who are “racists”? the left. Where are the “fascists” ?? Antifa. etc. etc. that’s their standard m.o.
My batting average seems to be pretty low, but here it is any way.
I see this as spot on in stating everyone sees what they want to see, and use alternative facts if needed.
Corruption needs to be exposed, and prosecuted, without regard to who; no one is above the law. Those who propose “What-a-bout” are trying to deflect; those who propose “Also” are perusing truth.
The goal is protecting our constitutional way of government from corrupt individuals,…. not protecting corrupt individuals from our constitutional way of government..
That claim has been thoroughly debunked. Joe Biden pressured to fire the Ukrainian Attorney General AFTER the investigation was already over. And Joe Biden was not the only one. Anti-corruption groups and other Western countries were all pressuring Ukraine to fie their attorney general. The influence of Joe Biden alone was probably negligible, but justified. Please, Lester, we’re not dumb. We will not fall for the conspiracy theories.
Lester, if the Bidens are automatically guilty because of this, then you should be ready to convict Trump and his children for their much greater violations of the emoluments clause, Ivanka’s patents in China, selling real estate to Saudis, making deals with Russia, etc. Then we can talk about the REAL issue which is the withholding of funds from Ukraine and making offers to China to get political “dirt”.
Lester, you’re trying to distract everybody, but people aren’t buying it. The issue is Trump, trying to use the immense power of the USA to strongarm a hapless Ukraine into performing its dirty work.
Certainly, after investigation, the “eye chart” is at best a distortion (he did not profit in any illegal way, not even by the standards that applied before the Orange Maroon landed, much less current “standards”). And certainly Lester either knows that, and lies deliberately (probably) or he’s as dense as most of the the base, baser and basest and lies out of ignorance (less likely).
Ukraine President: We’d really like to have some more of those Javelins. (pleading for help for his country… which has been under constant threat from Trump’s best pal Vlad the poisoner.)
Trump: “I have a favor to ask though” (pleading for help to win an election)
Congress had already approved the aid to the Ukraine that Trump, for no reasons given, withheld until well after his phone conversation.
And using his private shyster to repeatedly make the request for dirt on Bidens? Yeah, that sure smacks of a desire to follow normal diplomatic process… Not. Remember how he used his previous shyster? The one serving time?
Remember him asking for Russian help on Hillary’s emails? Gosh, they came through on that one. Well, actually, he had already heard about it (the break-ins) from his minions.
Remember his election committee wanting to hear “Russian Government dirt on Hillary?”

If this were true, why isn’t Biden in prison?
If this is true, why haven’t we investigated Biden? Oh, wait, we have investigated Biden? And he was…what? Innocent? Or at least not guilty?
Mike, buddy boy. If you’re saying Biden is guilty of a crime, you are a liar.
If you’re saying Biden profited from his father’s office, he’s a Trump, not a Biden.
