REPORTER: So you're saying that it's okay for a President to ask a foreign leader to investigate a political rival and withhold foreign aid to coerce him into doing so?

BRAUN: No, I'm not saying that's okay. I'm not saying that's appropriate. I'm saying that it DIDN'T HAPPEN.

The Democrat/socialist Party under the corrupt Obama administration has done more to illegally influence and interfere with our e******ns than ANY foreign country could dream up. In 2012 Obama weaponized the IRS, then since he got away with that he went all out in 2016 and weaponized the intelligence and law enforcement agencies to c***t Hillary into office. When that didn't work, these political thugs have been trying to frame President Trump ever since.

==============
The president of the United States is the commander-in-chief. He is the head of all foreign and diplomatic relations. He is in charge of setting up policies, protocol, and control procedures how our diplomatic relations are carried on with foreign countries.

Ukraine is a country where US provide military and humanitarian aid. It was known for its prior years corruption, especially during the Obama administration. The president has all the rights to investigate those involved to ensure that corruptions have been cleaned up, before we continue providing them aid. There was a $400 million taxpayers' money at stake here.

Congress must not encroach upon the president's independent foreign policy. We have 3 branches of government with 3 separate powers. So for Adam Schitt, I ask him to get lost.

Absolutely! Of course Schiff's only concern is getting Trump out of office in the hopes of getting a democrat in the White House. It matters not to him how he does it and, he's helping to hide much of what they were doing in their efforts to get rid of Trump. Any argument from Schiff about policy is a joke and should be considered as such.

Is it okay for a President to ask a foreign leader to investigate an elected official for using his political influence to get personal gain for a member of his family and withhold foreign aid to coerce him into doing so?

Absolutely it is! It's always a prerogative of a president to have other countries investigate and uncover corruption!

The question should be is it okay for a p**********l candidate to engage in rank, blatant corruption and abuse of power, selling influence for personal gain, and not be investigated for it because he is a Democrat/socialist?

Yep, heck, Biden might have decided to run to avoid being investigated.

Maybe Biden could get a quasi investigation, (or matter as Lynch called it for Hillary.) Most likely since the propaganda press have already declared he did nothing wrong, (even while he's on video bragging about it,) Biden thinks the "matter" is settled.The Democrat/socialist Party must think Americans are incredibly stupid, but then again no one in the corrupt Obama administration has actually been held accountable for any of the obvious, blatant, corruption and abuse of power.

To them it is only appropriate if the one being investigated is republican.

Damn, we have no press. Only pretenders. And if it matters the aid was given before the deadline.
