Ukrainian President: No, Trump Did Not Push Me to Go After Biden

Speaking during a one-on-one United Nations General Assembly meeting with President Trump Wednesday afternoon, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he was not pushed to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden or his son Hunter.

"I don't want to be involved in the election of USA. I think we had a good phone call. It was normal and we spoke about many things," Zelensky said. "You read it [the call transcript]. Nobody pushed."

As a reminder, this is what was said during a call the two leaders had in July.

"There's a lot of talk about Biden's son, that Biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that so whatever you can do with the Attorney General [Barr] would be great. Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution so if you can look into it...It sounds horrible to me," Trump said.

"I wanted to tell you about the prosecutor. First of all I understand and I'm knowledgeable about the situation. Since we have won the absolute majority in our Parliament, the next prosecutor general will be 100% my person, my candidate, who will be approved by the parliament and will start as a new prosecutor in September. He or she will look into the situation, specifically to the company that you mentioned in this issue. The issue of investigation of the case is actually the issue of making sure to restore the honesty so we will take care of that and will work on the investigation of the case," Zelensky replied.

Yesterday House Speaker Nancy Pelosi launched an "impeachment inquiry" based on the false and anonymous allegation President Trump threatened to withhold military aid from Ukraine unless the Biden's were investigated.

Dems just got trolled and will proceed anyway to learn by who and how that happened.

The only Hot Potato now is Biden

The FBI lied to the FISA Court, using an unverified document they knew was fake, and began an investigation, and triggered a Special Prosecutor investigation based on false allegations. So why isn't the President of the United States allowed to ask a foreign leader to look into claims made on video by then sitting VP Joe Biden? It would seem to me that there is far more evidence of Joe Biden doing something illegal, than anything within President Trump's phone call transcript.

The media pushed the idea that "Trump repeatedly pressured the president of Ukraine to work with Rudy Giuliani..." We know that is a false allegation.

In an article today in The Washington Free Beacon, I read that Chuck Todd was claiming there was no impropriety in the Hunter Biden/Ukraine arrangement. Republican Louisiana Senator John N. Kennedy replied: "‘Do You Think They Got Hunter Biden’s Name Off ZipRecruiter?"

Reminds me of Blasey Ford’s witnesses that said they didn’t remember any such party. The left still believed her.

Nincompoops.

I couldn’t agree more and that sounds just like something Senator Kennedy would say, I love it. :^)

As things spin more and more out of control for the Deep State, I fear they will soon try and move against the President under any pretext that he is an immediate threat to the country. I hope Trump has the backing of the military and he may need to call his supporters to come to DC and defend the country.

Too late, they are already proceeding

Good. I was hoping Zelensky would give his perspective on this.

Ukraine now goes on the Democrats’ enemies list.

The way things have been going I agree that’s a real possibility.

I believe a military solution is the only possible answer to what has become of this country anyway. So I say, go ahead and let the communist revolutionaries make their move.

Armed conflict will not be necessary if the Left just bides its time for another 15 years.

As is stands they have pretty much captured the young.
Just sit back and wait for enough of us Deplorables to die, and the hands on the clock will hand the country over to them.

Too bad for the deep state. If they had just left Trump alone to do his job as a duly elected POTUS and not tried so hard to get rid of him none of this ever would have come out. Now with this impeachment bs they are really digging the hole deeper and deeper.

Greg Jerald said Trump would have been derelict in his duties if he hadn’t brought up Biden’s corruption up. He is afterall the chief law enforcement officer of this country, whether worthless democrats want to admit it or not.
