I don't think highly of Trump by no stretch of the imagination but getting dirt on your political opponents is normal. By any means. Trump just stupid to do it on the phone in such a way. I've no problem with that. There is much worse things he is doing on the working class and many presidents before him that calls for an overthrow never mind an impeachment.
But illegal to use the power of the presidency and tax payer money for personal or political gain. Additionally, as this was head of state to head of state, he is requesting foreign involvement in US elections.
However repugnant and amoral some of his policies are, they haven't been to this point as obviously illegal and when they have been they have been put to the test in the courts.
they bent over backwards to cover up Russian interference in the last election, the day after the Mueller report hearing and they're at it again with Ukraine.They're all at it. Illegal or not it doesn't concern me about him. Unless you're just mad to get him out of the whitehouse without an election. Then I can see the severe concern.

There are laws, Since JFK I think only one democratic president has broken the law once (Clinton). In the same time the republican presidents have been found to break the law over 90 times.
It's about time the democrats do everything they can to end GOP cheating.
They are all "at it" as you write - but this is the sitting President of the United States, using the authority, voice and power given to him by the citizens of the US (of which I am one), to force / coerce / cajole another country to provide dirt about a political rival and influence our internal election. The problem isn't Trump's behavior, because he's always acted this way - it's the fact that he is doing this while he is the President. That's the big no-no in this saga.They're all at it. Illegal or not it doesn't concern me about him. Unless you're just mad to get him out of the whitehouse without an election. Then I can see the severe concern.
This is what causes the characterization of "cult-like" behavior on the part of Cheeto supporters.They're all at it. Illegal or not it doesn't concern me about him. Unless you're just mad to get him out of the whitehouse without an election. Then I can see the severe concern.
