Because of corruption by the past Ukrainian administration we wanted to make sure the money was going to the right place we wanted assurances it was gonna go where it was supposed to. So Trump said you need to look into previous corruption issues.
He NEVER mentioned withholding money...which had he done that would have violated U.S. law.
Which is what Obama did the previous year with the same aid money.
Ah, okay. I like the way you explained that. It makes sense.
I've heard/read that the investigations he was requesting were already done and/or conspiracy theories.
For ex., 1 of them was about a idea that the Ukrainians framed the Russians for the 2016 hacks, which our intelligence community says it was the Russians.
The other was that Biden got Ukraine to fire their AG because he was looking into the company his son worked for, which I've heard is also wrong. Apparently, that Ukrainian AG was fired for
not investigating and being corrupt.
It seems as if Trump was asking Ukraine to manufacture dirt on Biden. Why else would he request that they make a public statement and investigate something that's been disproven already?
