@jca2 I actually said even on these pages. It goes on many more places. But let’s go back in time a moment. Back to when Congress was trying to impeach Donald Trump for doing a “quid pro quo” with the Ukrainian president. If true, it very well should be an impeachable offense. Yet at the same time we see a video of Joe Biden bragging about doing exactly that…threatening to withhold needed aid unless Ukraine fires their AG within 6 hours. He was proud of it. Yet the media and many of the left leaning jellies on these pages ignored it. I heard “it isn’t the same thing” and “he isn’t POTUS so it isn’t important” and even when presented with the idea he wanted to run for POTUS “If he is elected, we can look at it then”. None of those on the same side as Biden wanted to hold him to ANY level of accountability. They still don’t. This is a standard practice when it comes to politicians.
The irony is that I have consistently held that if a politician does something wrong and it is proven (not just alleged) then they should face a harsher penalty than you or I. And that goes for both sides of the aisle. Many of the left leaning jellies on these pages assume I am a huge Trump supporter because I don’t jump right in on any bizarre allegation against him and want to see him hung by his testicles. If you go back and look, I am usually calling for honesty in reporting and actual evidence instead of just claims.
The aforementioned impeachment. It was claimed by a mysterious whistleblower that he demanded 8 times for Zelenskyy to investigate Biden and made it a quid pro quo. The left jumped all over that as fact. Again, if it was true, I’d agree. Influence peddling is not what we want out of our elected officials. But the immediate release of the phone call transcript showed all the claims to be completely false. At that point, the non-partisan person would look at the entire thing as what it was…a political, partisan, attempt to discredit the POTUS. None of you did that. The Dems then brought in “witnesses” that were not present for the phone call, were not involved at all with the phone call, that had never met President Trump, that admitted they had no first hand knowledge of anything to do with it. Often they were giving opinion that was passed off as fact. A non-partisan person would see that as a travesty of justice. This isn’t anything to do with Trump, it has to do with not accepting partisan politics being used to undermine the republic.
