Hmmm... Jeordam Send a noteboard - 27/09/2019 04:20:05 PM

View original postSimple question. Is it Ok for POTUS to use his position and foreign aid to pressure world leaders into dig up dirt on the families of his political rivals? Ignore who gave you the information and who the party is do you support that sort of behavior in our president. Can you honestly say you would have supported Obama behaving like that?

I didn't see POTUS doing a quid pro quo. But to answer, is it Ok. No. However it is no more wrong than using that same position to stop a world leader from digging up dirt on your own family.
View original postIf the republic has become so weak and frightened that we are willing to abandon all our values to support a man like Trump then the party is doomed. Personal integrity and accountability is one of the things that drew me to the Republican party in the mid 80s but fear and hatred has killed that wing of the party.

What values is the republic abandoning?
