Condoleezza Rice says Trump asking Ukraine to investigate Biden is 'out of bounds'
CNN ^ | November 12, 2019 | Devan Cole

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who has largely remained silent on issues concerning President Donald Trump, said Monday that the President's efforts to get Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden were "out of bounds" and called the administration's shadow foreign policy in Ukraine "deeply troubling."

"The call is murky, it is really murky. I don't like for the President of the United States to mention an American citizen for investigation to a foreign leader. I think that is out of bounds," Rice told CNN's Becky Anderson during a conference in Abu Dhabi, referring to Trump's July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

"What I see right now troubles me. I see a state of conflict between the foreign policy professionals and someone in Rudy Giuliani who says he was acting on behalf of the President,"

Same talking points as Romeny. She must have just received the memo, a couple of weeks late.

AKA another one of those people who was in charge of everything as it burned to the ground. Get lost, Condi. You had your chance.

I’m “troubled” that she follows the liberal talking points.

You never see these liberals mention that President Trump asked about Crowdstrike in the call.

hardly.
first, the Biden crimes involved Ukraine (and at very high levels too)
and second, we have a treaty specifically providing for
one country to assist in the investigation of crimes involving both, or the other

but Condellina has been bad news ever since her Hewlett Packard days.. during which HP imported thousands of foreigners to take Americans’ jobs... (as Silly-Con Valley big corporations continue to do)

It was actually REQUIRED under as US/Ukraine anti-corruption agreement.

Trump did NOT say, oh for example, “fire this guy or you get no aid.” Or “hire my son onto this board where he will never have to actually attend meetings or do anything or we will withhold US Aid.”

THAT would be an illegal quid pro quo.

Right?

Another Bushie chimes in with nothing but her opinion. The more the Bushies chime in on things about this Administration, the more my respect for them drops.

All Republican administrations and (would-be administrations) between Reagan and Trump are cut from the same RINO/Uniparty cloth.

Of course she does.

I still remember attending CPAC and there were a bunch of people there pushing Condoleezza Rice to run for POTUS.

The Democrats worked to destroy her while using Racial Slurs and she gladly hands them ammunition.

As my dear Mother used to say, some People are so smart, they’re stupid.

Condoleeza said nobody thought bad guys would fly commercial airliners into buildings. She’s not a very good liar.

Total globalist, situational ethics person.

Wrong, Condi. If Americans are engaging in corrupt business practices abroad, it’s not only the right but the duty of the POTUS to root that out.
