***********
Conservative radio host Mark Levin seemed irritated on Sunday when he was repeatedly questioned on whether he approves of Donald Trumps actions at the heart of the presidents Ukraine scandal.
In a chat with Fox & Friends, Levin ranted against Democrats for their renewed efforts to impeach the president. As he trashed the whistleblower who raised the alarm over Trumps efforts to get Ukraine to conduct an investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden (his potential 2020 rival), Ed Henry asked Levin if he thought Trump did anything illegal during his call with President Volodymyr Zelensky.
What crime was violated? Levin responded. Its not illegal. The question is whether Biden did something illegal. The president didnt do anything illegal.
As Levin proceeded to bash the media for not doing more to look into the unsubstantiated criminal allegations against the Biden family, Henry tried to get back on topic and asked so youre okay with a president asking another president to dig up dirt on a candidate?
Hes a former vice president, Pete Hegseth interjected as Levin asked what dirt are you talking about? When Henry re-asked the question, Levin grumbled that your question is not honest.
Levin repeatedly objected as Henry invoked the relevant portion of the Trump-Zelensky transcript and said its not a trick question.

So what he asked about Joe Biden? Levin said Is he not allowed to ask about Joe Biden? Whats the problem with it?
Levin continued by declaring that Trumps conduct was not illegal, its not immoral, its not ununethical, and if you guys in the media would do your damn job and ask Joe Biden and Hunter Biden what the Hells going on, maybe the president wouldnt have to raise the issue. He also concluded later on by saying I dont have a problem with Trumps request to Zelensky.

Sounds like Levin said all the right things. Thanks for the info.
Actually, I think from your exchange Levin was being a lawyer too. There is something highly unethical about what the President did, and it hangs on the technicality of Biden being his current opponent. Nothing would have been ethically violated if Trump were asking to investigate Hillary or Obama. The corruption regarded the Bidens was somewhere President Trump should not have gone, SOLELY BECAUSE AT THE MOMENT BIDEN WAS A POLITICAL OPPONENT. Dumb move by Trump.
