I don't have to make an argument and nothing that you say can prove that was his intention. That's on the Democrats to do in order to prove that Trump wanted to gain dirt on somebody who isn't even the Democratic nominee and may never be. Do you really think Trump is concerned about a 4 time Presidential failure who is a forgetful, bumbling idiot who is physically falling apart and has been a bureaucrat for over 50 years but wants everyone to think he is a "man of the people" or "lunch-bucket Joe". Maybe Trump is doing what many who voted for him to do which is ferret out corruption between those on the Left/RINOs and the old Ukraine regime? Does all of the collusion/corruption on the Left not seem to concern you at all or only what Trump allegedly has done? You do know that 3 Democrats sent a letter to the Ukraine asking for dirt on Trump don't you? That could just as well be construed as favoring them in an upcoming election as it does Trump right? If we are going to play that game then let's just let it all come out and put all of the cards on the table on both sides. However, the Left has so many skeletons in their closet that they are trying to make go away by impeaching Trump. What they are too stupid to realize is that all of their dirt will either come out during a trial or from the IG report very soon. My concern is the cowardly Republicans not doing anything about all of the Democrat and/or Leftist sins that also need to be investigated.
Either way you look at it, I am 100% positive that Trump will get re-elected because the Left is so inept in figuring out why Trump was elected in the first place and will get demolished in their cloak and dagger impeachment process. Pardon my french, but so many people are tired of their shit and doing nothing for the American people. Trump is continuing to move along to do things for our country regardless of the sham that has been perpetrated against him since coming into office.
Additionally, never have I seen so many in the media try to run cover for the Left. Investigative reporting is dead with the mainstream media. They just collude with the Left to support or run cover for them. Don't even want to know/care who the whisteblower is, which is coming out anyways, so that Trump lawyers can defend against him against anonymous allegations.
But hey, this is just one person's opinion.
