[[In all of this, no one asks one simple question: WHERE / WHAT IS THE CRIME? Hello? Anybody home? ]]
The left are claiming the ‘crime’ is in ‘The Ask’, ie they claim it’s like a person trying to bribe a judge- whether they later ‘withdraw’ the bribe or not= ‘The Ask’ was the crime- the bribe would be the crime- the left are claiming that Trump did condition aid on investigating biden, then claim Trump got caught, and withdrew the ‘bribe’ - they are claiming it doesn’t matter if the aid went through- they claim just the withholding at first was a crime-
That is what they are arguing
