Trump got caught soliciting foreign interference in the 2020 presidential election.

You're welcome.[/quote]

From what I could see, he was asking for help in investigating corruption by members of the prior administration. Joe Biden was an elected official. Exposing his corruption is not an impeachable offense, sorry.[/quote]

The President does not decide who gets investigated, not in the U.S., and even less so in another country. The worst abuses of power that any President can do is to use the power and authority of the State Department, the Department of Defense, and Department of Justice for his own personal or political interests. Trump corrupted all three agencies whose nonpartisan independence is essential to maintaining any confidence that those powerful agencies are using their power appropriately and honorably.

If there were something to investigate about the Bidens, Trump's phone call demand for an investigation and his using military assistance to demand an investigation from Ukraine, would nullify any investigation that resulted as a political attack rather than a legitimate investigation.

Trump needs to be removed from office especially because he will never stop demanding that the most powerful agencies of the U.S. government are supposed to act as his personal and political agents. He will never understand that he is not entitled to use the government as his very own police state. [/quote]

Ah, but it was perfectly OK for Vice President Biden to withhold a billion dollars in loan guarantees to Ukraine unless they fired a prosecutor. He proudly bragged about it at a conference in 2018! Now look back at your line about using the power of the state for personal or political gain, and please explain why this shouldn’t apply to Biden. [/quote]

Right, just like Trump proudly bragged about withholding aid to Ukraine unless they investigate the Bidens.  Oh, wait, he actually didn't, until someone blew the whistle.  Why was he trying to keep it a secret?  And then he obstructed Congress's investigation.[/quote]
