Trump wanted the Biden and DNC money machine corruption in Ukraine investigated. This was also where the Russia hoax originated.

If there is no crime that Trump was investigating, and everything was above board, why is there such bitter opposition to looking into it?

I wonder if someone has given him a copy of Peter Schweizer’s new book. I don’t think he’d last very long if the R’s used it on him...under oath.

Somebody should inform Gropin’ that, as of this moment, his own Party has made him the center of the impeachment trial. Republicans didn’t. demonicRATS did.

I believe there is only one guy that can claim executive privilege. Biden can always take the fifth, though. :)

One cannot turn into a "political theater" and a "farce.", that which is already a "political theater" and a "farce.".

He’s been given the opportunity to prove his innocence.

Think it’s time for Durham to bring charges.

So, Trump committed an impeachable offense of “obstructing Congress” by appealing to the courts as to whether he was required to produce evidence.

But Joe can just simply declare he’s not going to show, and that’s all OK...

To get Joe to testify at the Impeachment Trial, Trump’s team simply plays the video or Biden bragging about extortion of Ukraine, and simply state, “THAT is the corruption the President WAS OBLIGATED to investigate.’
