Fox News Now Reporting Trump is Seeking Foreign Assistance is Illegal

But he never asked for them to help in the election. Please do show us him asking such. It's Biden's fault he chose to be a candidate with such a resume

-VySky

OMFG

Dude, just stop.
 
Trump has never said he was trying to find help with his election by having other countries do full investigations on Biden's dealings that hurt the U.S. and also involved them with spying on Trump's campaign along with Hillary and the DNC getting dirt on Trump. Trump hasn't done anything wrong. He isn't doing this for the election. He's doing this to expose the crazy liberal Democrats that their party is corrupt to the core and has been for a very long time. No federal crime has been committed.

"How can one live with oneself after being such a whore for a political leader" is what goes through my mind after reading this post.
 
It's hilarious when trump supporters accuse others of being illogical or unreasonable. They, who support buffoonery and illegal behaviour from this orange-faced clown and his dumpster fire of an administration are anything but!

And, your response is in direct support for my statement showing illogical and unreasonable emotional breakdowns. I'm glad to see a President that finally puts corrupt Democrats in their place. That includes the left wing screaming media and those in Congress. Oh, let's throw the Republican deep state in your group as well. Go ahead and respond some more with emotional psychotic outbursts.
 
Again, he asked them to look into corruption, not help him bury a political opponent. You can't put words in statement which do not exist

-VySky

<sigh> It is a Federal crime for the president to ask a foreign power to investigate a political opponent. We have intelligence agencies and law enforcement agencies that can do that. If you'll notice from Shep's news story trump was also suggesting that if China doesn't do what he wants their trade talks might not go so well. You need to pull your head out of the sand my friend. You're in denial of corruption right in front of you!
 
This entire corrupt era is Rush Limbaugh's fault along with all of those people at Fox News that copied his model.

One would think some people over there would be honest enough to speak out for what's best for our country. The leader of the free world asked a Communist nation to help him out with his opponent for God's sake.

I'm really glad that republicans like Barry Goldwater and Bob Dole and John McCain aren't alive to see this.

Shame on Sean Hannity.

Well I'm not.
It would have been good to see the three of them kicking these nitwits right in the ass.

Goldwater started to get pretty good at it.

Are you referring to FDR? JFK? LBJ? WJC? BHO?

Denial aint' just a river in Egypt. Apparently you know more about Biden's alleged criminal activity and Federal law than Fox News. Good for you :roll:

Another quid pro quo, eh? China Trade talks v. Biden dirt, with farmers continuing to bite the dust.

I agree- The corruption within the Democrat party and the Biden's run deep. POTUS was not looking to benefit politically but is looking for America to benefit from exposing rampant corruption within the Democrat Party, and in this case, it includes the Biden's. America first

LOL - you hit all the alt-right hateful buzz-words. You're a good soldier! Well done :applaud

Historical revision is not your strong suit.

Try living in the present, 2019, with an insane skeletal admin.
 
It is completely appropriate for POTUS to ask countries to look into corruption. It is on Biden since he decided to run for the office of the Presidency while under a cloud of suspicion relative to corruption. Biden should stand down his campaign over this conflict of interest

-VySky

Hunter Biden was with the Ukrainian company since 2014. Why didn't Trump ask Ukraine to look into him in 2017?

Biden bragged about getting the Ukrainian prosecutor fired in 2018. Why didn't Trump ask Ukraine to look into that in 2018?

Now all of a sudden, after seeing every singe poll showing Trump getting spanked by Biden, Trump asks for Ukraine to look at only TWO items of "corruption": Biden, and a completely baseless CT on Crowdstrike, which can only serve to exonerate Russia. Why just those two? Is that all that is left for Ukraine to address for corruption?

The "Democrat party corruption" is all in your head. If there were, Fox News would be reporting it. I'm sorry, my friend, you're making stuff up just because you can't accept the truth.

HAHAHAHAHA! Rush Limbaugh! Blaming Fox News...HAHAHAHAHA!!! Or maybe it's those people that actually do investigative work and uncover the communist plot of the Democrats. Maybe it's the Democrats that are opposed to God and want to hide their true ambitions of dictatorship fascist government. The fact is, what is your idea of what our country should be and look like? Something like socialism, not a constitutional republic, fascism, hatred towards anyone who disagrees with you? What? I like liberty, freedom and the right to own my own property and not have the government steal from me. There are a couple hundred million people in the U.S. that feel the same way. Maybe more if they were able to stop watching CNN and MSNBC or listening to liberal talk radio. Shame on you for trying to limit freedom of thought, religion and speech.
 
I doubt that Shep or anyone on Fox News is much in control of their own narrative. I'd be shocked if Shep's reporting wasn't blessed by the Fox "powers that be".

The same applies to all news. Its called "editors".
 
Shep Smith: "The president asked Ukraine and China to investigate his political rival on television for all the world to hear. Fox News knows of no federal investigation of his rival for any violation of any American law. President trump may have violated Federal law. It is illegal to ask a foreign national or foreign country for any political assistance. trump is the first American president to ever do so.".



Even the anchors on Fox News can't tolerate trump's criminal activities any longer.


Yep, Shep Smith stating "President Trump may have violated federal law. It is illegal to ask a foreign national or foreign country for any political assistance." is fine and accurate news reporting. It would have been more informative for Shep Smith to have stated exactly which federal law that is, and what the typical penalty (FEC fine?) was for someone having violated that federal law in the past was.

I don’t think the network respects Shep Smith. Hannity and Ingrham will continue doing what they do

Fox News needs your kind of knowledge and precision. You should send them your resume!

You don't get it. Fox News allows for different opinions. So, they have programs with liberal opinion persons and conservative opinion persons. They have programs with a mixture so you can get both sides of opinions on issues. You can tell the difference as well based on how a story is reported by say Smith versus Hannity. You have many of their opinion people in the middle as well or those who simply are trying to figure out what is right and wrong with a story. At the same time, they invite people from both sides to be contributors and argue their points of idealism and beliefs. Even with that, it's stated that there are still more liberals on Fox than conservatives. 60-40. They try to be as balanced as they can.

However, with CNN and MSNBC, they are 95% liberals democrat hacks that push false stories before actually investigating their stories. They get caught all the time with their fake and false stories. They invite conservatives and republicans on their programs hardly at all. And, most of the time, they are never-trumpers. I will blame this left wing media for all the stupid things going on in Washington today and over the past 3 years. They are the ones pushing the stupid false stories for ratings, power and money. If they began to be fair and balanced as Fox is, you would see this stupid attempt to impeach Trump go away. Just look at what Adam Schiff did with the Transcript of the conversation with Trump and the Ukraine President. He completely changed it with the most vile and hateful ways to attack Trump. He needs to resign or get thrown out of Congress. He lied for 2.5 years about Trump collusion with Russia and Mueller found there was no collusion. Schiff said he had clear evidence Trump colluded and he didn't. Such a liar. Can't be trusted with the Intelligence Committee.

That is the part where Trump supporters simply flip the channel ;)

See no evil.

I don't know. Shep's been there a long time and Fox wouldn't keep him on payroll if he wasn't bringing in the sponsors. In any event, Fox respects Chris Wallace and he's doing the same kind of reporting as Shep.
 
President Trump is being transparent. Remember the last POTUS who said his office was going to be cough.... cough...... transparent? He was going to show us the daily visitors logs to the WH? LMAO... That never happened

-VySky

You're confusing Obama with trump and Bush, my confused friend. In any event, no president has been less transparent in modern history than trump. We've all seen every president's tax returns and college transcripts except for trump. I feel so sad for the brainwashed trump supporters delusional support!
