Oh. I thought he requested an investigation. Who is he running against, by the way?
Over 7,500 Ukrainians died at the hands of the Russians during the prior administration which refused to give them lethal aid.
One of Trumpâs earliest FP moves was to provide lethal aid to the Ukraine and that aid was delivered long ago.
Since that point in time the Russian advance in Ukraine has stalled.
The Ukrainians have not run out of arms and didnât because of this slight delay in the delivery of this aid package so the premise is pure BS.

The front lines in Donbas stabilized before Trump took office. His okaying some lethal aid had no effect on that.
It prevented any further encroachment.
Now assuming for the sake of argument, that what you said is true. Obviously then any delay in aid didnât cost any lives.

I didnât make that claim. I was just pointing out that your previous post implied that the Russian advance stalled after Trump okayed some lethal aid. But in actuality the lines had already been stabilized in 2016 with almost no changes since then except for a few places here and there that Ukraine has occupied in the âGray Zoneâ.
So just to be clear are you telling us thereâs no longer a shooting conflict in Ukraine?

Thatâs absolutely not what I am telling you. Where on earth did you get that. But the lines have been almost unchanged since 2016.
So then I was correct in saying the Russian advances has been stalled.
Thanks for clearing it up.

Yes I think itâs clear you implied that Russian advances stalled, after Trump okayed some lethal aid. In actuality the Russian advance âstalledâ(although I wouldnât really use that word) in 2016 before Trump became president.
They have not advanced because now the cost of doing so is too high.
Up to the end of Oâs administration they just kept taking one bite at a time, things would stabilize for a bit then theyâd take another bite.
The core of the army is the armor all of which is now highly vulnerable due to the first lethal aid transfer as is any building their troops might take refuge in.

So that is one vote that the delay of a month in getting lethal aid didnât lead to massive deaths?
DougBH:Scary what passes for an impeachment. First, this time connection to the whistle blower is a made up connection. The budget year was nearly out so it was released. That is the more logical connection.
You canât impeach on made up connections.Even if there were questionable considerations by Trump, that is the sort of differences that are left to elections all the time. Donât like the way Trump did something, then bring it up in the next debates.
So ridiculous after all the bogus anti Trump investigations that have been going on.
The Dems conducting the âimpeachmentâ are like the Chess playing Pigeon.
They strut around the board knocking over the pieces, they â â â â on the board and then strut off declaring âvictoryâ.
Pretty funny that the quote that was used to attack creationists is now being used by themâŚ
More important question. Who cares if it did or not?
Non sequitur alert.

You do realize the Javelin missles have not even arrived in Ukraine. Correct?

Actually, they got Javelins last year. But they have not been used on the Donbas front.
DougBH:Funny to be the first President ever impeached for not releasing funds he released.
(Of course will never be the first convicted)Our president solicited help with an election from a foreign giovernemnet, He used the power of his office to do this.
So did Hildawg. Trump should have used an english cut out. Heâll do better next time.

The ones from FY2019 (the ones held up) were not available for sale to the Ukraine until Nov 3rd.

Well if this isnât a Barr Summary, I donât know what isâŚ
September 9th - Whistleblower Report becomes public. âThree House committees launch a wide-ranging investigation into the allegations that Trump, his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, and possibly others, tried to pressure the Ukrainian government to help the presidentâs reelection campaign by digging up dirt on a political rival.â
September 11th - Aide to Ukraine is released.
Amazing how a release of a potential damning document gets aide released.

True, but they got a previous order of Javelins delivered in 2018.
