Run For Election Exempts You from the Law

Praxas said:
Where does ANYONE say you should be exempt from the law because you are running for election? Oh yeah, nobody is saying that but you.

What is being disagree upon is the concept that a sitting president cannot be indicted. YOU folks are the ones who are defending that concept.

James Comey said it in his party operative exoneration speech of Hillary.

He said that he could not see any reasonable prosecutor actually charging Hillary Clinton for smashing cell phones, wiping hard drives, holding secret information on her personal pay for play server, and removing sim cards. :roll:

And no where did he say “Because she is running for office”. Nice try but you fail again. Maybe you should just “retire” from this board since lies are all you can post.

Neither did Trump.

That is your fantasy...but not fact.

You can lie all you want but no one believes you aren’t a trump fanboy. You are constantly defending his corrupt actions. People like you do more damage than any terrorist can dream of by defending the indefensible corrupt actions of Trump and allowing him to erode the office of the presidency.

She also lost to the "real estate guy".

You have no actual evidence that Biden threatened a country to pardon his son. You have a conspiracy theory. And there is a consistent, in the open, valid and reasonable explanation for getting the Prosecutor General fired, he was internationally viewed as corrupt and others were calling for him to be fired. There is evidence that Hunter Biden was not involved in any investigation with Burisma (interesting how Hunter Biden had never been to Ukraine, nothing showing he was planning on going there, yet Shokin claims he was planning to interview Hunter Biden right before he was fired), both Prosecutors since Shokin have said this. And it was all done out in the open, and has held the consistent position for why the aid would have been withheld and why the demand was made to have Shokin fired. No one in Ukraine leadership has came forward to refute that Shokin was corrupt.

Biden admitted it. In fact, his threat carried a 6 hour timer.

End of discussion.

No. Biden admitted to getting Shokin fired for being corrupt, which is a legitimate reason.

LOL

Yeah, that's it, that's all he did.

The hypocrisy is so crushing I'm surprised it leaves any room for air.

There's no hypocrisy in something being based off the evidence we have, evidence backed by outside sources, even international sources.

Shoe where anyone within the Ukrainian government (such as Zelenskyy, Lushenko, the newest Prosecutor General, or someone from their anticorruption group) has stated that they don't think Shokin was corrupt.

I mean, that's the argument right? I hear over and over the question asked....

'Do you agree with POTUS asking a foreign government to investigate your political opponent'?

Think about it... If Biden had not entered the race then this question, sans political opponent has merit?

Just because a citizen decides to run for office, we are to exempt them from potential criminal activity?

It's on Biden that he decided to run for the office of the Presidency and as such, consented to the scrutiny that comes with it

If there's any merit to the accusations of criminal activity against Hunter and Joe Biden in Ukraine, why does the POTUS have to apply pressure in the form of withholding aid to get them to investigate? If Trump had said something like "we have reason to believe that Joe and Hunter Biden were engaged in corrupt practices in your country--I'll have the evidence we have sent over to you--and we'd like you to investigate that. Of course, nothing will change between us whatever your decision" then I don't think there would be a problem. But that's not what he said. What he said was that expected aid would be withheld contingent on Ukraine opening an investigation into the Bidens.

Those are quite different propositions.

Because this is the swamp. This kind of back door deals are common in politics. Just like Epstein conveniently ending up dead, no one wants to actually look into political corruption and how far it all goes. From any direction. Like the military industrial complex.

Oh, I'm well aware of how politicking works. I was pointing out to the OP that there's a significant difference between what he was implying, and what actually happened.
