    I hope not! Hunter Biden can’t save Trump if Bolton testifies to what the book says.

    I don’t think Hunter Biden would bring his father down either.

    He most certainly can.

    All the defense needs to prove is there was probable cause for an investigation into the Bidens and Burisma. Democrats will start bleeding votes if that happens.

    It’s good to have dreams, the Ukraine is investigating but it’s Rudy not Hunter.

    Simply untrue. There were thousands of people who should have been investigated over the first three years of Trumps presidency, it was not until Joe Biden declared and was beating Trump in the polling data that Trump decided he needed an investigation. Logic proves that Trumps interests were purely personal and not for the good of the nation.

    Trump* succeeded in getting Ukraine to investigate Rudy, when he tried for Hunter.

    Like he'll.
    Nothing will change Trump's crime spree into a cake walk you fucking loser.

    And only one of them had anything to do with Zelensky’s country.

    All the defense needs to prove is probable cause for an investigation—that Trump might benefit from it is irrelevant. Was Trump supposed to ‘not ask’ just because he might benefit?

    What kind of logic is that?

    Are you kidding, you think Hunter Biden was the only person doing something questionable in Ukraine? Silly. Rudy and Manafort come to mind right away. There were literally thousands of people they could have more likely had investigated over Hunter Biden if corruption was the concern.

    AND there is 0 evidence Hunter committed any crimes, what crime is it you think he committed?


    I hope you are just being disingenuous instead of really being this uneducated about our legal and political system.

    Unlike impeaching Trump, Hunter cant be convicted for non-statutory crimes.

    Darth...if either Biden was doing something illegal...

    ...Trump would (and should have) asked the FBI to investigate him...

    ...not the goddam Ukrainians.

    What is it with you guys?
    ON HIS WORST DAY, JOE BIDEN IS A BETTER PRESIDENT THAN TRUMP WAS ON HIS BEST DAY!

    Thanks, Joni. Now we know for sure that you Reichwingers have no interest in truth, in justice, in integrity. You just want to haul an uninvolved private citizen in front of the Senate to give a hint of the appearance of shady dealings of his father. For political purposes, not because there is a shred of truth.

    You (all) are as corrupt and despicable as that trash in our White House.

    Did Manafort or Rudy boast about a QPQ involving a billion in aid?

    Trump said it looked ‘terrible’; it did, and Trump asked for an investigation into it. And somehow, this is a problem.
