Boges Posted January 7, 2020 Report Posted January 7, 2020 Just now, WestCanMan said: Boges, that cite isn't relevant. You said that Shokin wasn't investigating Burisma. I asked for proof. You cited a link that claims Shokin was fired for a different reason. That's not the same thing, at all. Find me a source that backs your claim, and don't change the direction. It was your claim, you need to back that claim up. Not change the topic. He was fired for not investigating corruption. The Trump narrative is that he was fired to protect Hunter Biden. Those two narratives don't jive. Assuming you believe Hunter Biden's position at Burisma is corruption and not just plain old Nepotism. Quote

An "obvious crime" that no American law enforcement agency has the slightest interest in, even Trump's own Justice Department, and that Ukraine also has no interest in. The story originated with a far right conservative group as little more than a conspiracy theory and was kicked around by the likes of Brietbart for a couple of years before Trump came across it and seized on it. And you call this an 'obvious crime'? 23 hours ago, WestCanMan said: So what? Everyone on the planet knows that Biden committed a crime because he bragged about it. Outright lie. 23 hours ago, WestCanMan said: The Dems are trying to prove that Trump withheld aid to force Zelenski to "dig up crap" on Biden. No one on earth has produced any actual evidence of that. Other than the testimony of everyone involved, of course. Or at least, those willing to testify. Other Republicans who were subpoenaed refused to testify because they don't trust Trump to pardon them if they commit perjury. If Trump told you to set yourself on fire you'd do it.

Biden got his kid a cushy $50K/mo job, lied and said he knew nothing about it, finally admitted that he did know about it when presented photo evidence, and this was after he bragged on national TV that he withheld $1B in loan guarantees until the prosecutor who was investigating his son's company was fired. His kid also flew to China on AF2 and closed hundreds of millions of dollars worth of business with the communist bank of China. Again, Joe said he didn't talk to Hunter about what he was doing in China. Never said a word. Why did Biden pretend not to know his son worked there if there was nothing wrong with what he was doing? Why does he always pretend that he never talked to his kid and suddenly his kid is up to his eyeballs in money? Why are you so adamant that this is all above board? Utter hypocrisy, that's why.

Cite? One page back I posted a video of Joe Biden saying that he didn't know that Hunter was on the board of Burisma in a reply to Boges. Joe Biden absolutely stated on camera that [paraphrasing] "he didn't even know that Hunter was on the board of Burisma when he fired the prosecutor". TOTAL LIE. And honestly Argus, you've been opining on the topic for long enough that you should know all this by now. Quote That doesn't seem to bother you when Trump junior or Ivanka do it. This seems a reasonable summary of what happened. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/10/us/politics/joe-biden-ukraine.html Paywall... Regarding Trump Junior and Ivanka, they're still working in the exact same businesses that they were working in before Trump became President, on the same continent, in the same country, for the same company that they were in 2015. Another major difference is that they're not even acquiring any new real estate while Trump is in office, so in fact they've curtailed their business somewhat. Are you honestly trying to compare that with H Biden? Hunter "got hired" in the Ukraine, where he'd never worked before, in the oil and gas sector, where he'd never worked before, when he didn't even speak Ukrainian, they paid him $50K per month, and they gave him all that money while he was busy off-continent for long periods of time running a business based out of North America and mainly invested in China. Sure Argus, that's just like the Trump kids. Are you honestly making that comparison because it's like comparing a quivering bunny to a raging elephant. And if that's not enough, there's still the matter of "how did Hunter fly to China on AF2 and just walk out with $500M in new business from the Communist Bank of China" to contend with. (and again, his dad didn't know what he was going to China for) If you tried to tell the full & honest story of how Hunter Biden is innocent with a straight face you'd turn BRIGHT purple. Literally no one on earth is stupid enough to believe it. So Biden apologists just say "CNN and the Dems say it's all good. What more evidence could we possibly need?"

It was common knowledge for a long time that Joe Biden's position was that he didn't know his son was on the board at Burisma. Here's Joe saying it, rudely, for the 1,000th time, on video: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/11/02/joe_biden_on_hunter_i_didnt_know_he_was_on_the_board_of_that_company.html If Joe wasn't on record as saying that he didn't know his son worked for Burisma then why would the photo of Joe, Hunter and Devon Archer been a big deal? It was proof that Joe was lying the whole time, about knowing that Hunter worked at Burisma. The day that photo came out was the day that the whistleblower complaint story went hyperbolic.

Queenmandy85 Posted January 18, 2020 Report Posted January 18, 2020 The Democrats seem to be falling into the trap that happens to politicians of all stripes. There is a tendency to tell the voter what they should think rather than listen to what they do think. President Trump's constituancy supports him because they believe he is listening to their message. I believe he will win in 2020 barring the unforseen. His other qualities aside, he really knows how to campaign. Democrats should pay attention. Listen to what the voters are saying. Quote A Conservative stands for God, King and Country

The trouble is that Trump's and the Republican constituency don't know it's ass from a hole in the ground. People talk about Bush or Trump derangement syndromes but these are like mild headaches compared to the brain wasting disease of left/liberal/progressive derangement syndrome that conservatives suffer from. This death spiral of polarization has been going on for decades ever since the likes of Limbaugh Coulter and other no-holds barred partisan war-hawks took hold of the GOP's shtik. Trump is simply the most recent albeit the most telling symptom of America's descent into its next civil-war. Democratic voters are probably just wondering when the Democrats are going to issue their call to arms as well.
