It's actually painful to read some of the replies in this thread. I know the SC regulars have risen to a zen-like acceptance of CT nutbags but for the rest of us it's pretty hard going reading the mmj/caracus2k/tang0 trifecta of craziness.
Zen like acceptance? Pull the other one.
SC, particularly the current POTUS and brexit threads are egregious echo chambers of single minded group think.
Blatant nonsense and falsehoods all too often go completely unchallenged but for the input of 'crazies'.
Sign of the times I guess.... The TDS bunch think there onto a winner because having had the most scrutinised POTUS ever, subject to allegations retrospectively claimed to be Trump generated conspiracy theories, they have finally dredged up something they think is impeachment worthy.
Of course we know the cart was always before the horse in this regard with the Dems actively pursuing impeachment from day one and just looking for something , anything to use for that purpos. WWhich was always their aim... To subvert an election result they lost and didn't like and to ensure that it could not happen to them again with the same man 'by any means necessary'.
And what have the dems actually got?
POTUS putting pressure of the new leader of a foreign country to investigate the appointment of a former VP's son to an energy company?
An obviously corrupt appointment and one that, if the tables were reversed, would have received far more media scrutiny with their being relentless calls for Ukraine to robustly investigate.
But whay do we get from the bulk of the media.....
'There' s no (concrete) evidence that Bidens job at Burisa was the result of daddies specific role in the Ukraine or that it was corrupt and we are a bit undecided about whether there's a conflict of interest'
Basically he usual 'there's nothing to see here folks' from what might as well be the media arm of the Democratic party
If i was a US citizen i would want there to be scrutiny as to why Hunter Biden suddenly took up a job on a board in an energy company, itself mired in controversy, in the Ukraine of all places shortly after daddy took up a specific role leading US foreign policy with the country and with himself 'dealing' with the corruption issues present there by.
Biden jnr had no experience in the gas industry or any other connections to the Ukraine beyond his father.
So i dont find it particularly surprising that the apparent reaction from a large chunk of the US populace re this allegation effectively anounts to a shoulder shrug whilst they are wondering what the big deal is....
