    Default Trumppers, how would it be?

    Lets imagine in a future where a Democrat is president and you find out that as she geared up for her second term election, she called a struggling nation, being threatened by one of our adversaries and when they asked for help her response was....


    "I need a favor though, I need you to announce on CNN that you will be investigating (likely opposing candidate's child's name here) for corruption."

    Now add on that this is the first time every the Democratic president had shown any interest in international corruption ever, infact imagine she refused to call out international corruption every time it showed up until then....


    You would be screaming from the hills for impeachment, and you know it. You were screaming because Clinton lied about a blow job.

    You people do not care about America, you care about your identity politics.

    Schiff for brains, is that you? Can you show us where Trump ever said that in the call, verbatim?

    Another one, verbatim, that's like having to physically see Oswald pulling the trigger before admitting he shot Kennedy, or needing an exact quote from Wille Sutton on robbing a bank before acknowledging he robbed the bank

    Turn off Rush and think for yourself

    It is the duty of a president, any president, to investigate corruption (Biden and Son) in a country, any country, that we are giving millions in aid.

    Trump even mentioned to Zelensky "don't surround yourself with these people" - the prior corrupt Poroshenko crowd.
    So yes the call was about corruption/ Ukraine meddling ,and that's the reason for the Biden refference

    At no time during any of trumps phone calls to Ukraine did he bring up corruption- never!

    It doesn't count if he didn't say it literally verbatim.

    So in the future, if we have a liberal Democrat president, you'll be cool if they do exactly what Trump did.

    Let's just say, hypothetically, that AOC is president and she's running for reelection against Mike Pence. If AOC withheld aid to a foreign country until that country agreed to publicly announce an investigation into Pence, that would be fine?

    If any president, did what Trump did she should be impeached.

    Absolutely. But the modern Right only cares about winning elections and nothing else. We'll never convince them that something is morally wrong, but we can convince them that letting Trump normalize bribery is bad because it will also help Democrats.

    So you twist the words to suit your agenda? Yeah, that's the liberal way.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    No need to twist them. It's right there in the transcript. Trumpcucks are saying it's not bribery because Trump didn't use the word "bribery" which is just pathetic.
    It would be like saying the Mafia doesn't threaten people because they don't literally say "do us a favor or I'll break your legs, this is a threat, I'm actually threatening you right now."

    Zelensky is supposedly the victim of a crime (bribery). If the victim says he wasn't bribed, then no crime has been committed. How difficult is that to understand?
