    Default Why didn't the Trump DOJ and GOP Congress investigate Biden?

    I mean, why didn't the GOP investigate Burisma when it controlled Congress, the White House, and SCOTUS from 2017-2019??

    Why was Ukraine supposed to do it?

    Because it's bullshit, that's why.

    Because we all know Trump and the GOP never actually gave a rat's ass about corruption, nor about an actual professional investigation into Biden.

    What he wanted was a public announcement by the Kiev government that Biden was under investigation. Trump wanted the political theatrics and political ammunition that he perceived would come from a public pronouncment.

    Trump didn’t want an investigation into Biden. He wanted a political show.
    Sondland’s most quietly damning statement: A real investigation by Ukraine was not the explicit goal.
    All he wanted, according to Sondland, was a public announcement of an investigation. He wanted a show.

    If I didn't think it would rot my brain, I'd like to watch reruns of Fox from about July-August to see the first mention of anything Ukraine/Biden and see how the timing coincides with the call.

    I believe that even on this forum, if you searched the posts from January 2017 to about September 2019, you will find almost no posts from Trump boot-lickers about Hunter Biden and Ukraine. It's possible you might not even find a single one.

    The reason Trump boot-lickers on this forum "suddenly" became interested in Hunter Biden's corruption is because they were spoon fed that talking point from Fox, Brietbart, et al., and they viewed it as their only possible diversion to defend their corrupt president.

    They were busy dealing with the Russian HOAX. The new Ukrainian HOAX is a desperate attempt to circumvent the current investigations. Not to worry sad sack; Trump and Barr will get to the bottom of it soon enough. We have five more years to root out the ROT that was the Obama Administration.

    Trump said, "I want nothing. I want no quid pro quo.

    Sondland says Trump didn’t explicitly link Ukraine aid to probes

    “I don’t recall President Trump ever talking with me about any security assistance,”

    “The only thing we got directly from Guiliani was that the Burisma and 2016 elections were conditioned on the White House meeting,” Sondland said. “The aid was my own personal, you know, guess” based on, “two plus two equals four.”

    There is no case. It is all smoke and mirrors intended to deflect from Trump's real criminal behavior. They wore out Hillary. So they needed someone else. it is mere coincidence that Trump's opponent last election was investigated and accused endlessly. Now the Dem front runner this election becomes the target. There is time for the rightys to run 4 or 5 Biden investigations before 2020.
    Don't the rightys have another game plan?
