Tell Jennifer Williams, whoever that is, to read BOTH transcripts of the presidential calls, & see the just released ststement from Ukraine. Then she should meet with the other Never Trumpers, who I don’t know & mostly never even heard of, & work out a better presidential attack!

Also,take notice that NOBODY is talking about the Biden corruption as a separate issue. The whole focus is on Trump.

Nor is ANYONE anywhere that I know of reporting that Hunter Biden was only ONE of FOUR children of prominent Dims,including the son of Former Ambassador and US Senator John Kerry that were also given board seats on that same Ukrainian board,or suggesting THAT be looked into as possible corruption. You would THINK that the son of a former Sec of State being given a no-show seat on a board in a foreign nation as being worthy of looking at,but the media seems to think no one is interested.

I am hoping that once the dust settles on all this that Trump pays the Dims back by investigating and reporting on the corruption investigation into the board appointments of all these Dim Princes.

It's been argued that the desire to remove the Ukrainian prosecutor was one shared by our allies, so there's really nothing about which to be concerned.  I'm curious as to how that particular argument demonstrates a lack of corruption, or proves their weren't improper motives.  First, there is clearly an old guard/elites brotherhood where those types all kind of look out for each other where possible, and second, it's not like corruption is limited to just the United States.  If you had significant corruption going on there, there may have been all sorts of people affiliated with allied governments who wanted to bury that.
