Luthie... wakie wakie my man. You will never get the truth watching the fake media. No IEDs, really... it was all spin by your media heroes.The facts are clear. The aid was withheld at Trump's direction as a way to force Ukraine to make a public statement that they were officially investigating Burisma, all in order to help Trump in 2020.
Spin all you want, but it doesn't change that proven fact.
Only it's not proven fact. I think you can legitimately claim that based on testimony there is a high probability of truth, but that does not equate to proven fact. You're overstating IMO.The facts are clear.

I liked all the concrete first hand evidence best.
I'll defer to RockyTop and his claim that he's seen plenty of jury convictions on less evidence.Only it's not proven fact. I think you can legitimately claim that based on testimony there is a high probability of truth, but that does not equate to proven fact. You're overstating IMO.
It was inappropriate to nominate Trump.
I don't think he said it was beyond reasonable doubt, but he can clarify if he wants. Given his profession, I've no doubt he's seen convictions on less evidence. But he's probably seen the opposite as well. A lot depends on the jury and what they find reasonable.I'll defer to RockyTop and his claim that he's seen plenty of jury convictions on less evidence.
It's beyond reasonable doubt.
You do realize we nominated him solely to piss you, the Democrats, and every damn rhino off?
This was our middle finger in the air to everyone.
You wanna keep blaming us and taking us for granted, the hard working people in fly over states that make this country actually run, then have fun dealing with Trump for the next 8 years.
I do know that is exactly why he was nominated. A big middle finger in the air to everyone. Brilliant rationale. So why act surprised at the completely predictable reactions and the inevitable results.You do realize we nominated him solely to piss you, the Democrats, and every damn rhino off?

I'll amend my "proven fact" to "beyond a reasonable doubt".I don't think he said it was beyond reasonable doubt, but he can clarify if he wants. Given his profession, I've no doubt he's seen convictions on less evidence. But he's probably seen the opposite as well. A lot depends on the jury and what they find reasonable.
And it's still not "proven fact" as you claimed.
Like any president would. BHillary has nothing to lose at this point.How do you reconcile that Hillary Clinton had the guts to face congress for 11 hours while Trump and his minions hide like a bunch of sissys? Heh, she may have been crooked, but she wasn't a punk b*tch like Trump.
I'm genuinely curios on how you handle that dissonance intellectually.
lol. Keep trying to justify your TDS. You are a typical liberal. seeing what you believe.That’s not true, and is pretty moronic. I know what beyond a reasonable doubt looks like. I deal with gradations of proof all the time and I am perfectly capable of forming a detached opinion about a case, regardless of what I think should happen. Otherwise, how would I advise and defend criminals that I know are guilty?
The reason I “hate Trump,” and the inherent fallacy this as a dumbass argument for every single who doesn’t kiss his ass, is because of Trump. It’s not because I was born hating Trump or really even gave two ***** about him before he turned into a dog **** politician with no identifiable principles and an unsustainable political model.
I didn’t think he should have been removed over collusion in the Mueller investigation, even though I suspect he probably was guilty. “Probably was” isn’t enough. There was reasonable doubt. Just because I spent half my time scolding morons who don’t know the difference between “no proof” and “insufficient proof,” just like most of you can’t tell the difference between news and opinion, doesn’t mean I was sold on impeachment.
I didn’t think he should be removed over obstruction in the mueller investigation. The proof was there but even though I thought it was worse than what Clinton (who I also wanted removed) did, I made posts at the time saying I didn’t think it warranted removal.
I haven’t thought he should be removed over any of the other things he’s done, either, for essentially the same reason. Maybe cumulatively there’s a case to be made but the man has so many infractions that it’s honestly hard to keep track of them all.
Most of the disagreements I have with people on here is over your moronic attempts to defend against even the most insignificant criticisms, when they’re clearly valid. Like you’re doing now.
Here, you guys are trying to cobble together soundbites into a defense, but the evidence about what happened hasn’t even been seriously contested. It all circumstantially points the finger at Donald Trump.
I’ve witnessed several trials where far less proof than what’s been put on already was enough to reach a conviction.
So yeah, I don’t think it’s me that’s running on pure bias. Literally the only people that think this is going well are the hardcore trumpophiles. Every form of moderate and center right media has this scored, at best, 49-46 heading into the 6th with Volker being the only round where Trump may have won.
