    Is Trump suppose to ignored the wrong doing if opposing it may help him in the future?

    Of course!

    That is the scheme of every human executive authority I ever encountered.

    The executive branch (police, military, fbi, cia, ...) uses such tactics, constantly.

    The judicial and legislative groups have their own evil.

    No. But please go thorough proper diplomatic channels. Don't call the guy up and record the conversation in the company of a bunch of other people.

    He is the proper channel. The only reason anyone made a big deal out of it is because the Dems were looking for a reason to impeach since April of 2016.

    Blah blah blah. Stop lending credence to the propaganda. Biden's campaign is completely irrelevant. The President gets to investigate corruption.

    Trump MIGHT have been concerned with Biden as an opponent til Biden shot his own foot with his tax yak & other New-Age-Liberal stuff. But, if he could get the goods on a leading Dem, it'd help his own cause.

    At least buy her some better fitting false teeth....

    Pelosi got what she wanted for Christmas--recognition as the most evil woman in America and in the Free World.

    Did you seen that one disgusted member of Congress tweeted out this Bible verse as all this was going down:

    Romans 1:25
    ['They exchanged the truth of God for a lie']

    Think about, we have fake news. And now we have a fake impeachment. It is fake in a number of ways, one of which, Pelosi wont send it to the senate. These democrats are loving a lie.

    Pelosi is hoping to mitigate some of the damage to her party, but she's only making it worse.

    Yes, she DOES need better clackers ! She oughtta stop by the funeral home & go thru the barrel; she may find some.

    Had the Nixon impeachment been made, it would almost-certainly been sustained by the Senate, which had a Dem majority. However, many GOPs were for impeachment as well,

    But GOP leaders in both House & Senate told Nixon he was toast, & that he should resign to protect his pension, which he did before he could be impeached. Had he been removed from office, he woulda forfeited his pension.

    While Clinton was guilty as Judas for lying to Congress about Monica & Paula Jones, (Depending on what "is" is) the Senate considered it to be a "minor misdemeanor", not deserving a punishment as bad as removal from office. And Trump's trial won't be any closer to a "guilty" vote than Clinton's was.

    Pelosi is only delaying the inevitable if she does hold up forwarding the formal impeachment papers to the Senate. It WILL come back to haunt her & the Dem party.

    Roby - I disagree - IMHO the Senate voted Clinton not guility simply based on party vote.

    Now that Trump is impeached...

    Like being in a mile race, if you never cross the finish line your time is not even clocked. They don't want it revealed just how sorry a run they had.

    its LESS THAN a 'not guilty' or a dismissal of charges if you are not even called to trial.

    SO SINCE 2016, 40 PLUS MILLION DOLLARS, A COLOSSAL WASTE OF TAXPAYER MONEY, SEVERAL LIVES PUT INTO BANKTRUPTCY, SEVERAL CHARACTER ASSASSINATIONS WHAT WE GET FROM PELOSI IS

    NA-NA-NA-NA-NA-NA I'M TAKING MY BALL AND GOING HOME!!

    OK BYE!
