Continuing to have that opinion in the face of constant evidence to the contrary is where the lack of intellectual curiosity and trolling come in.
Continuing to push a conspiracy theory about Biden and using it as some basis to keep saying what trump did is fine is burying your head in the sand in the face of overwhelming fact and logic. That doesn’t deserve to be treated the same as a discussion of whether higher or lower taxes better society or other actual discussions that have two logical possibly correct sides.
"The political pressure continued. Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion in crucial U.S. aid to Kiev if Poroshenko did not fire the country’s chief prosecutor. Ukraine would have been bankrupted without the aid, so Poroshenko obliged on March 29, 2016, and fired Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.
At the time, Biden was aware that Shokin’s office was investigating Burisma, the firm employing Hunter Biden, after a December 2015 New York Times article.
What wasn’t known at the time, Shokin told me recently, was that Ukrainian prosecutors were preparing a request to interview Hunter Biden about his activities and the monies he was receiving from Ukraine. If such an interview became public during the middle of the 2016 election, it could have had enormous negative implications for Democrats."
doesnt sound like a conspiracy theory to me, but hey what do i know, i only made money on trump winning and got into bitcoin in 2015, im not clearly way ahead of the curve LOL
