In a step of unprecedented transparency, President Trump
called the Democrats’ bluff and just released the full, unredacted transcript
of his call with the Ukrainian President.
The transcript revealed there was absolutely no
quid pro quo, nothing inappropriate was mentioned on the call, and no threats
were made.
This is yet another example of Democrats and the
media completely getting over their skis in an effort to further their
political vendetta against President Trump.
When President Trump said that the US does “a lot for
Ukraine” it was in the context of President saying European nations were not
doing enough for Ukraine.
The Ukrainian President even agreed with President
Trump’s assessment and responded that European nations weren’t doing enough to
enforce sanctions against Russia.
As Kimberly Strassel points out, the “favor” President
Trump asked about was not in regards to the 2020 election, it was
looking backwards at the 2016 election.
The transcript also clearly shows there was ZERO
discussion connecting American aid to a Ukrainian investigation into Hunter
Biden. In fact, there was no mention of any US aid package to Ukraine at all on
the call.
And it was the Ukrainian President who brought up Joe
Biden, not President Trump.
So after this two week long charade, clearly, the double
standard Democrats have on Ukraine is absolutely massive as Marc Thiessen
points out in The
Washington Post.
In 2018, Democrat Senators Menendez, Durbin, and Leahy wrote
a letter to Ukraine’s prosecutor general asking them to investigate President
Trump. Why isn’t that a problem?
In 2016, Joe Biden bragged
about bribing Ukraine with $1 BILLION to fire the prosecutor who was
investigating his son, Hunter Biden's company. To borrow the phrase from Joe
Biden after the Ukrainian prosecutor was fired , “son
of a b---- ” that’s quid pro quo.
And in 2019, Joe Biden has already lied about
discussing business with his son which and their clear conflicts of interest.
Bottom Line: Like we saw with
the Democrats’ Russia collusion smear, there is no there there with President
Trump and Ukraine. The push by Democrats for President Trump’s impeachment is
going to blow up in their face.
