TRUMP'S UKRAINE ACTIONS, NOT ILLEGAL, NOT HIGH CRIMES
SAME DEMOCRAT STRATEGY AS THE KAVANAUGH HEARINGS
The volume of accusations, the daily dropping of revelations from unnamed anonymous sources does not change the facts of this impeachment. It is all strategy to lure the defense into addressing the accusations rather than the facts of this whole fiasco.
1 The facts are, that the President had every right to delay transferring aid to the Ukraine. It did need to be transferred by September 30, unless congress agreed to a delay. it was transferred on September 11.
2. The President had every right to recall the ambassador for any reason or no reason at all. He could have fired all the sitting Ambassadors and replace them if he desired.
3. The President had not only a right but a responsibility to insure that foreign aid is not squandered, siphoned off by political corruption or as it is becoming clear, insuring kickbacks are not being paid to those who help arrange for such aid.
4. Speculation as to motives is just that, speculation and assumptions are not facts.
5. The Biden's have engaged in corrupt practices in the Ukraine, maybe not illegal by present law, but corrupt nonetheless. I suspect that there is a lot of exchanges, like the Burmisa affair, with relatives of politicians in both parties. There should be a special council to investigate all possible siphoning of U.S. aid back to those who help to win such aid.
6. Being a candidate for President does not give you a blanket immunity from investigation. That certainly has not been the case with other former candidates and certainly not President Trump.
We can expect daily leaks and accusations from unnamed anonymous sources and possibly even some other revelations. This will continue as long as this trial continues. Senators need to not debate anything other than the law.
