The dumbass committed the same crime today from the WH lawn! Unbelievable!
He wants to go full on dictator.
Quote:As the President of the United States, I have an absolute right, perhaps even a duty, to investigate, or have investigated, CORRUPTION, and that would include asking, or suggesting, other Countries to help us out!
Quid and Quo
Quote:Washington (CNN)When President Donald Trump suggested — without prompting — that China should investigate Joe Biden and his son, he thrust another political grudge into what was already the world's most complicated and consequential relationship.
...................
Thursday's comments weren't the first time Trump has injected Biden into his relationship with China, though he said Thursday he has never pushed Xi to investigate the former vice president. Nor is it the first time he has sought to trade favors with Xi, who this week celebrated the 70th birthday of his ruling communist party with a note of congratulations from Trump.
During a phone call with Xi on June 18, Trump raised Biden's political prospects as well as those of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who by then had started rising in the polls, according to two people familiar with the discussion. In that call, Trump also told Xi he would remain quiet on Hong Kong protests as trade talks progressed.
The White House record of that call was later stored in the highly secured electronic system used to house a now-infamous phone call with Ukraine's President and which helped spark a whistleblower complaint that's led Democrats to open an impeachment inquiry into Trump.

Regarding the China statement today. It's now clear he was trying to get in front of the story.

^^ Yer gonna want to read that ^^
Oh dear! Trump's toast! Dem committee heads send memo to fellow Democrats! Did Nancy approve this?
Translation:
"waaaah...sniff, sniff...waah! Can you believe Trump isn't rolling over on our OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE re: Ukraine? And now, he's bringing up China!
How dare he disrespect our authority!"
"This is not normal or acceptable. (Normal GOP'ers like Bush would have cried Uncle, by now) It is unethical, unpatriotic and wrong. (even tho Dem Presidents have done the exact same thing. But, we care
about the little guy!)
"Trump has no backing by the MSM elites...is a gauche ogre...and yet he still dares to challenge the conventional wisdom of the NYTimes, the Guardian, and the Atlantic."
(^^ that was in the addendum you didn't link. Trust me, it's there  )
I so miss a week ago when KB ran his victory lap on the whistleblower/Ukraine. Can't believe Trump's still in office, after that bombshell.

Google: "global warming extremists shut down traffic".
Ya. You in the "mainstream". LMAO.
What the fuck does this even mean? You mean the beach town I live in where the weather is nice year round, there are beautiful women all over the streets where I walk my dog (I'm in my 30s), and I have a good, fulfilling career? You got me!
My bad.
You took this 'personally' which was not my intent.
The broader point I was trying to convey was....a southern conservative's 'reality' (your term) is obviously going to be different (peculiar) than a southern liberal Californian's...was my point.
Due to the obvious geo-political differences, inherent.
(I'm a native San Diegan--whale vagina--, btw. So I get 'rights' to opine. )
Yes, you live in an aesthetically beautiful city, full of beautiful people.
I stalked a college girlfriend to Montana ave (santa monica) years ago. I don't doubt your quality of life.
I'll now re-bow out of your thread.
Starting......now.

Giuliani set to make paid appearance next week at Kremlin-backed conference that includes PutinBy Tom Hamburger ,

Rudolph W. Giuliani, whose actions as President Trump’s personal lawyer have helped set in motion an impeachment inquiry, is set to appear as a paid speaker at a Kremlin-backed conference in Armenia on Tuesday — an event expected to include the participation of Russian President Vladimir Putin and other top Russian officials.
Giuliani confirmed to The Washington Post on Friday that he plans to take part in a panel at the conference sponsored by Russia and the Moscow-based Eurasian Economic Union, a trade alliance launched by Putin in 2014 as a counterweight to the European Union.
According to an agenda for the event posted online, Giuliani is set to participate in a panel led by Sergey Glazyev, a longtime Putin adviser who has been under U.S. sanctions since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine five years ago.
Giuliani’s decision to take part in the conference astounded national security experts. His scheduled appearance comes days after the release of a whistleblower complaint accusing Trump and Giuliani of pressuring Ukrainian for damaging information about Democrats.
Washington Post Mike? LMAO!
Later it was was revealed the Deep State whistleblower is a CIA officer who was detailed to work at the White House, according to a new report by The New York Times.Today we found out the whistleblower is a registered Democrat.
The ‘whistleblower’ has since returned to the CIA.
BREAKING: The Democrat whistleblower who complained about Trump digging up dirt in Ukraine was himself helping dig up dirt in Ukraine against Trump (and Manafort) while working in the Obama White House during 2016 campaign.
BREAKING: The whistleblower is a registered Democrat & CIA analyst who was detailed before the 2016 election to the Obama White House,where he worked on the NSC's Ukraine desk & met w anti-Trump Ukrainian officials before being sent packing by the Trump NSC & becoming disgruntled
