If this was a situation involving Don Jr and Trump there's no way you'd have the same opinion.
It's not an opinion when there is no evidence to support your claims. Facts are facts.

You darn right he didn't know what Biden did.

What Biden did was an act of foreign diplomacy with the backing of many nations, in plain sight, even to the point of bragging about it on camera.

What Trump did was to blackmail a foreign nation for his own political gain, behind closed doors and then buried on the most secure secret server in the Whitehouse.

You miss the point. previous to Trump none of it was even an issue. No one concerned themselves with conversations between POTUS and world leaders.

And let's remember where the entire episode got its legs...the media
The same place that Mueller / Russian Hoax grew legs and kept America running in circles for almost 3 years

That is about as succinct and clear of an encapsulation as I have seen.

This is factually inaccurate and memos by that company's defense team prove it.

There's only one reason they hired Biden's crackhead son and that is to have Joe intervene on their behalf, something he wad only too happy to do to help his son.

Ah so demanding a prosecutor be fired on the behalf of your son's corrupt company is diplomacy but mentioning that situation to the new head of state is blackmail.

That's certainly some fierce cognitive dissonance you've got going there.

So, in other words, the majority of Americans do not support impeachment.

Thanks for the info.

You're right, voters count - and how'd those voters do for the GOP in the last big election? Seems to me the GOP got beaten pretty badly.

Another Adam Schiff / Media lie.

Media headlines breathlessly blared "Democrats subpoenas Mike Pompeo!!" around the world.

Inquisition letter stated: "We are hereby transmitting a subpoena." As of today they have yet to do so.

10/1 Mike Pompeo: Where is the transmission? Where is the subpoena???

While it may be true that Hunter Biden was hired because Burisma hoped it would buy them influence by virtue of his father's position (a swampy, but not illegal practice that is sadly all-too-common in both parties), there is no evidence that Biden ever did anything to favor them, much less "intervene on their behalf," especially since the only apparent "intervention" was the removal of Shokin which was done to advance US official interests, at the direction of the US government. Moreover, removing Shokin bestowed no benefit on Burisma because Shokin's removal increased the chances that Burisma would be investigated (given that Shokin had refused to investigate Burisma).
