    No evidence of wrongdoing by Bidens according to fact checkers associated press, checkyourfact and politifact.  Investigations of fake conspiracy theories are usually a waste of time and money.

    Guess you are as dumb as you look

    That's the best you can do?

    Why not prove third wrong rather than insult him?

    We are all ears.

    VP Biden  “I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor (Viktor Shokin) is not fired, you’re not getting the money,’” (US guarantees of a third loan worth $1 billion ) Biden said during a meeting of the US Council on Foreign Relations. He was referring to Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and former Ukrainian prime minister Arseny Yatsenyuk.

    “Well, son of a b***h. (Laughter.) He got fired.” said Biden

    Forget Hunter Biden....leave him out of the mix ..Joe Biden admitted that he blackmailed/bribed the Ukrainian then-President Petro Poroshenko with $1 billion to force the firing of the lead prosecutor Viktor Shokin investigating for corruption involving Burisma Holdings Limited..

    March 2016, then-Vice President Biden threatened Pres. Poroshenko,that his nation would not get a $1 billion U.S. government loan guarantee,,, unless he did what Biden was demanding...now that's extortion plain and simple..and possibly obstruction of justice.  Biden didn't just make a threat .. it succeeded.

    In fact we can take this a little further..Joe Biden even implicated Barack Obama in the quid pro quo scandal. 

    The Ukraine President to Biden: You have no authority. You’re not the president—the president (Poroshenko) said’ …Biden said, ‘Call him.’ I said, ‘I’m telling you, you’re not getting the billion dollars.’ I said, you’re not getting the billion. … I looked at them and said, ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money.’...Joe Biden was doing this extortion at the behest of President Obama ..

    There are many republicans supports who could care less about the evidence and support Trump regardless of the facts. At this point the constitution means very little under a AG Barr ruling

    The problem with Slim, etal., is that hey have fallen for the Retardlicans separation of of pressure, bribery, extortion, whatever you want to call it. There is a world of difference between pressuring the corrupt government of a foreign country seeking aid, and a legitimate foreign government from whom you are squeezing for dirt on a political opponent. 

    Joe Biden, on behalf of Obama and U.S. foreign policy was after a corrupt prosecutor that was not investigating or prosecuting ANY corruption, and there was a ton of it going on. Hunter Biden's position with Burisma was NOT protected; he, and Birisma were as likely to get investigated as any other type or form of corruption. Therefore, the Biden (Obama) position on withholding aid was a matter of U.S. foreign policy. 

    Trump could not have made himself clearer on HIS desires if he hit the entire Ukrainian government over the head with a truncheon. It was obvious HE wanted political dirt on a political opponent.  

    THAT is not U.S. foreign policy in action. It is PERSONAL INTEREST POLITICS at its sleaziest. Using desperately needed military assistance funds to extort (blackmail) a friendly foreign government for PERSONAL POLITICAL GAIN is the metric of measure here.

    Where does Trump currently stand in the history of lies to the American people, much less the Congress? is he not already the all-time champion, in only three years, when so many others would have to stand up for 8, or in the case of F.D.R., 13 years?

    You got your beloved tax cut Trumpers, stick your heads back in the sand.

    peace

    Two things...

    Biden needs to exit, he is wasting time and money keeping in the race..he is as dirty and corrupt as Trump and most all front runners.

    Second, what tax cut did the GOP get? Nobody under the ultra top bracket got a benefit, I know I didnt and I am middle class. Trump the dope took the bait and got rid of middle class deductions, actually bumped brackets up and hid it by the sham of raising the standard deduction. Now people in the middle lost most all deductions and will continue to pay more in taxes.

    What I dont get is why the health care phase in is so high, its one of the greatest points of inflation that exists..everyone getting gouged yearly yet you have to get more than 7% of AGI before any is deductible? Tax deductions should be in place for areas of impact and higher than CPI inflation and healthcare is number one on that list.

    I think the student loan interest deduction reduction was the most devastating of them all IMO.

    You guys are going to get chewed out by some nitwits that saw a $30 a week raise on their paychecks, then saw a $2000 drop in their usual annual refund, but since the day they saw the $30 dollar increase they have wanted Trump elected president for life. Those same characters will complain about the cost of everything at Wal-Mart going up and tell us their hero is "winning" the trade war. Life goes on, peace be with you.
