Biden goes on the attack over Ukraine controversy, pledges to beat Trump ‘like a drum’
FoxNews ^ | September 21, 2019 | Adam Shaw

Former Vice President Joe Biden went on the offense Saturday over President Trump’s July phone call with the president of Ukraine, in which Trump reportedly urged the leader to investigate Biden’s son’s dealings in the country -- with Biden backing calls for a House investigation and for the White House to release the transcript of the call.

“Trump’s doing this because he knows I’ll beat him like a drum, and he’s using the abuse of power and every element of the presidency to try to do something to smear me,” he told reporters in Iowa.

“Depending on what the House finds, he could be impeached but I’m not making that judgment now,” he said. “The House should investigate it, this appears to be an overwhelming abuse of power.”

He went on to call Trump a “serial abuser.”

“He abuses power everywhere he can and if he sees any threat to staying in power, he’ll do whatever he has to do -- but this crosses the line,” he said.

Biden is upset because one swamp critter would not do this to a fellow swamp creature. It’s just not cricket. Stuff like this is why the swamp skunks all hate President Trump and why I love the guy.

He won't get to. His fake Indian rival will beat her "Tom tom."

Most likely her beating will just bring rain, and a huge loss to our President.

Joe should STFU and hope the issue goes away. But I think the DNC wants Biden to destroy himself so that the Mooch or Cankles can rescue the field.

Hmm ... perhaps Team Trump set up the leaker/whistleblower.

https://edition.cnn.com/2019/09/20/politics/donald-trump-whistleblower/index.html

The whistleblower didn’t have direct knowledge of the communications, an official briefed on the matter told CNN. Instead, the whistleblower’s concerns came in part from learning information that was not obtained during the course of their work, and those details have played a role in the administration’s determination that the complaint didn’t fit the reporting requirements under the intelligence whistleblower law, the official said.

Biden got caught red handed committing a felony on camera. Why doesn’t the FBI raid his home while CNN cameras are rolling?

This should have waited for the general election, imo, but this “whistleblower” crap pushed it ahead. Makes me wonder if the so-called whistleblower actually is somebody in the Warren or Sanders campaigns attempting to take out both Trump and Biden.

“Hey, let’s go bowling next Wednesday night.”

This is collusion. Isn’t it? Well, no. Because going bowling is not illegal. Now, I could want to go bowling with you because I hope you injure your back. I could go bowling with you because I’m concerned about your health and I want you to get some exercise. I could go bowling with you because I’m secretly a bowling ball salesman and I want to show you my newest item.

The motivation for the invitation cannot be discerned from the offer.

On the other hand, if I say “Let’s go bowling next Wednesday, or I will slash your tires on your car”, the invitation encloses a threat.

Is there a difference?

It is completely obvious.

If Biden does somehow win the Democrat nomination, President Trump should bring a black gentleman approximately Biden's age to the first debate, and have him sit in the first row. At the appropriate time, he then tells Biden that he located "Corn Pop", point the guy out, and have him wave to Biden. After Biden becomes completely unglued on national television, President Trump could then tell him he's only kidding.

The best part is that all three of the demonrat frontrunners can’t be 2nd on the ticket, it’s nominee or nothing.

They are all too old for VP, and they bring nothing to the ticket. DE, MA, and VT were already in the bag.
