Oh my...
- So the short take is that Biden withheld a billion dollars until pres. of Ukraine installed an agreeable prosecutor?Gnash
- Why, isn’t that illegal?Gnash
- ^That's been the 'conspiracy theory' for the last few years... yes.PonyBoy
- One could get the impression that this is a pretty standard gov’t tacticGnash
- The part that is being left out here is that many countries and people within Ukraine wanted this guy gone.yuekit
- That wasn't 'left out'... it's irrelevant... therefore it wasn't included. :) (nor does it dismiss Biden's actions)PonyBoy
- The point is, Biden wasn't doing this for his own personal interest. Pretty much the entire world wanted him fired. There were even street protests in Ukraineyuekit
- calling for his removal. The American right-wing has distorted and twisted what actually happened, but it's easy to look up articles from the time.yuekit
- “You’re not getting our money until you do the thing we want”Gnash
- Just because that ‘thing’ is popular with others doesn’t negate the fact that ‘quid pro quo’ from having happenedGnash
- It simply makes it more palatableGnash
- If it’s wrong, it’s wrong. Regardless of it’s irrelevant popularityGnash
- If it’s wrong to give foreign aid with conditions, then the USA is guilty of much more than this because they do similar things all the time.yuekit
- You would think what would really be bad would be withholding aid simply for your own political benefit (what Trump did).yuekit
- Yet the GOP decided that was perfectly fine, and I seem to recall a few commenters here saying the same thing :)yuekit
- I think this a totally standard part of political gameplay. I wasn’t shocked by this move, or trumps. It’s the whinging by the plebs that annoysGnash
- Well... I suppose if I set it up so my kid was scraping loads of $$ from a company under investigation by said prosecutor that I might want the guy ousted too.PonyBoy
- Perhaps I might be one of those whinging plebs... dunno... just seems like we all forgot about the crackpipe-toting elephant in the room.PonyBoy
- But now we're back to that 'conspiracy' shit... where facts are overlooked and folks interested in a lil more info are called plebs. :)PonyBoy
- PonyBoy, that's the point though...if you read the facts, there is nothing to support the idea that Biden did this to protect his son's consulting job.yuekit
- This particular prosecutor was corrupt as hell and multiple countries were calling for him to be fired. He was spending his time investigating anti-corruptionyuekit
- groups while protecting corrupt politicians who ordered the police to open fire on demonstrators. He wasn't a good guy and it's laughable that the GOP is nowyuekit
- trying to pretend that he is.yuekit

Biden to black people; "You ain't black!" Dems want to lead a country and this is the best they come up with? You ain't sane.
- at least get the quote rightBluejam
- It is very sad that Biden is the best they could come up with. However, let's not be pointing fingers at "best they could come up with"nb
- Do you even remember the GOP primaries last round? Yeeesh.nb

- This vs "nazis are good people" - I still pick biden.zarkonite
- Biden would be a hysterical Prez, no doubt his wife will prop him up. He should have picked Cuomo for VP, but he promised it to a woke dark skinned woman.robotron3k
- Didn't quick catch this, what did he do? Rasist slip?grafician
- Really he gets too comfortable with ethics and women.robotron3k

This ad pretty much sums up why I generally abhor politicians. Lindsey Graham though is a special type of a-hole.
- Agreed, no fucking principles at all. It doesn't take much to rise to the cream of the GOP.nb
- "Like a vast majority of amoral, hypocritical, spineless, Republitards...Linds... Graham is a straight up ccmmi" - Hayothutopian
- He's a creepy wee rat cunt.PhanLo
- Lindsey's got many out there just like him... folks that called themselves 'never trumpers' before the orange clown was elected now suck his dick dailyPonyBoy

You left / right fucks that define millions of people with absolutes are not part of the problem. You are the problem.

- So you’re a centrist, imbecile?Gnash
- pigeonholing anyone for having a differing opinion/pov is fucked up—I admit my past guilt—it's quite common here on QBN... No—it's fucking normal here on QBN.PonyBoy

- I won't argue w/you that Trump is a fucking tool / dolt... however I will not agree w/you that Biden is a 'genius' in comparison... not even when he was sanePonyBoy
- I’m just talking about if you take their speech and compare it side by side. I wouldn’t call Biden a genius either. But at least he can speak.monospaced
- I’m not even exaggerating when I say my 2 year old son has better grammar than trump at times. It’s insane.monospaced
