So where was the outrage when Senate democrats asked Ukraine to investigate Trump and Manafort? That letter has been widely circulated in public, and not once did I hear anyone on the left criticize the senate democrats for asking another country for help, that they should have gone to the Justice Dept.

Did you read the letter?
Who did Mueller work for?
Here is the opening sentence: "We are writing to express great concern about reports that your office has taken steps to impede cooperation with the investigation of United States Special counsel Robert Mueller."
That is the difference between an aboveboard investigation and Floridaman's backchannel baloney.

the difference, is whether or not you support the politician asking a foreign country for help.

The difference is one abused his power to benefit himself, the others were assisting the Justice Department in an ongoing investigation.
As I have said before, if Floridaman had a anti corruption campaign, he would likely been able to investigate the Biden's involvement in Ukraine and no one would have been able to do a thing.
Floridaman found some lackeys to do his bidding who were actually pursuing corrupt opportunities in Ukraine and the USA.
There is still plenty of dirt to come out of the administration's horror show in Ukraine.
I feel bad for Zelensky who has been walking a wire trying to stay out of it while continuing to receive the support he has to have and keep his position as the leader of a government with an anti-corruption platform.

i don’t see how you can conclude it was an abuse of power. Trump, if guilty, threatened to withhold
aid unless they did what he wanted. Biden did the same exact thing, bragging that he threatened to withhold aid.
This is an insane joke.

Floridaman asked for the announcement of an investigation.
Show any proof of more than that, not your thoughts or feelings, a document, witness or other.
Trump's clear pattern of behavior stays true to course all the time.
There is just as much evidence that Floridaman ordered the hit on the Iranian to placate Bolton as there is that any Biden committed a crime having anything to do with Ukraine.
My feelings say the Bolton tradeoff is true and I want it investigated.
So what............
