You are wrong. Richard Nixon was not impeached. Only 3 presidents have been impeached. Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump.

Nixon didn't only leave office before he was removed, he left office before the house impeachment vote, so he was never impeached.

I’m not sure how the rest of your post answers anything I said in the post you quoted.

Can you name someone who has first hand knowledge that Trump abuse his power and bully people? He blocked everyone from testifying because he knows he is being harassed left and right and at every corner just because THEY hate HIM, thats a fact! So guess what, if the Democrats wanted them to testify they should have fought in court, why didn't do that? Schiffty Schiff said the court takes too long, BS, and so what. They brought a half-ass case to the senate, garbage in-garbage out!

React? Hmm, I guess you could call it a reaction to reading factually incorrect information.

But how does the rest of your post have anything to do with my post that you quoted?

I may have to get back to this sometime tomorrow. I’m going to bed now.

Trump blocked everyone from testifying because he knew they would incriminate him.

It benefits me as a taxpayer to know that our money is being handed over, indirectly, to Hunter Biden by way of Burisma, how's that for an answer.

Endangering national security is by letting all illegal immigrants in, apologizing to Muslim people, giving billions of cash to Iran, letting Soleimani kill our troops---should I keep going? Sucker!

How do you live with the fact that your lead manager, Schiff, is a known liar, who has twisted and bent many things in order to make Trump look bad?

If Schiff's case is so strong why take so much time to repeat same info over and over again?

Answer: Because if you don't have a case, you repeat the same info over and over again until people starts believing it, in this case that won't happen though, but nice try.
Give a single piece of evidence to suggest that trump is concerned about corruption.

Here are some salient facts that suggest the opposite is true:

trump did not mention corruption nor is there any evidence he did he prior to freezing aid. He only mentions Biden and Burisma.

The aid was frozen (illegally) despite having already been certified by anti-corruption officials in 2019 (and 2018, and 2017).

Hunter Biden had left Burisma before the certified aid was frozen anyway.

The aid was frozen shortly after Joe Biden announced his candidacy for president.

trump wants to repeal the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, a decades old anti-corruption act that prohibits foreign payments and bribes and is widely supported and seen as a model of anti-corruption. Legitimate business leaders overwhelmingly favor the FCPA.

Other countries receiving aid are considered more corrupt than Ukraine, oddly trump is apparently untroubled about those.

Sucker!

So where is your evidence of this. Ah, nothing. So how about a better answer.

Only Hunter would know this thats why Trump ask for the Bidens to be investigated, lol, not because Joe is running, but because he wants to know how Hunter got paid for something he has no clue of doing, are you this naive?
