Vladimir Putin is considering entering the race for U.S. president in 2020. Donald Trump has said he will step aside if Mr. Putin asks. When questioned about the constitutional barrier Mr. Trump said he will sign an executive order to allow a non-citizen to hold the office, and he will shine Mr. Putin’s shoes and do his laundry.

Mike Pence confirmed that he would gladly serve as vice president. And Rudy would be happy to do anything any of them ask. And all for free.

I am not sure I understand the CRWH and his administration. And it’s not what you think. The CRWH has said there is nothing to hide. And has said “read the transcript”. If I was so sure of my “perfectness” I would relish a chance to prove it. Bring on the impeachment, lace up the gloves, let’s get this over with. This will come down to partisanship. I have no doubt that the House will impeach. I have no doubt that the Senate will acquit. Why then would the CRWH want to drag this out. Put your best foot forward, let the people in your administration testify. What does he have to lose.

I know the Republicans don’t believe that the impeachment inquiry is legal, it makes no difference what they think. Finding out the evidence before actual impeachment is how it should work. A detective doesn’t arrest a suspect until the evidence leads to that arrest. Again this is partisan politics and my own beliefs will lead me to side with the Democrats. Many of you will side with the Republicans. What then is wrong with going through the process. If the CRWH and / or his administration are not guilty that will come out in either the inquiry hearings or the impeachment in the Senate.

So why the stonewalling? My belief is that this was an impeachable offense. Whether or not the Bidens were corrupt is a good question but not the end all question. The problem was the way the CRWH went about trying to start an investigation. Withholding duly authorized aid to an ally unless the ally starts an investigation is not legal. Why not instruct the AG to look into the corruption? I am not sure if the Joe and Hunter Biden took advantage of the Joe’s Vice Presidency or not. It’s not likely in my mind because the Ukraine government did not find evidence of wrongdoing. To me it’s not the question of whether the Bidens are guilty or not, it’s that the aid was being withheld until the President of the Ukraine publicly announced an investigation. That is the crime.

Some say that because the aid was released there was no crime. That’s like saying that someone attempting murder unsuccessfully isn’t guilty. It’s still a crime even if it doesn’t work.
