Some conservatives want to lose

A conservative source that is usually great is arguing that it's wrong, but not very wrong, if President Trump asked the President of Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden's son.

We know that Hunter Biden was working for a corrupt Ukraine company that was being investigated by the head prosecutor of Ukraine.

We know that Joe Biden said that that prosecutor had to go or he would hold up the US's aid to Ukraine even as Russia was invading the Ukraine.

We know that the prosecutor was removed and that his replacement stopped the investigation into the corrupt company.

We know that the #FakeNews media essentially covered up the story.

We know if Trump had done something like that for his son the #FakeNews media would have covered it nonstop for years; and they would have been right in doing so.

The problem with many conservatives today is that they don't realize that we will lose if we don't fight back.

It's important to note, and the conservative does, that Trump, unlike Biden, didn't offer a quid pro quo.  Trump didn't promise to increase aid to the Ukraine for example if the Ukraine did their job.

Clearly an American president wanting a foreign government to find the truth about a presidential candidate is something that Democrats support; heck they even support foreign governments lying about Trump.

Hence they should be applauding what Trump is doing. Remember Trump didn't say indict Hunter Biden; Trump said investigate him.  That's far more honest than what England did to Trump at the behest of the American coup plotters.

But more importantly it's not immoral or corrupt for Trump to ask that all Americans be subject to the same standards. If his son can be crucified in the media for meeting with a Russian lawyer even though nothing happened Joe Biden should be crucified for threatening an ally if the dared investigate corrupt dealings involving his son Hunter Biden.

That a "conservative" could say that Trump was wrong shows that they don't understand how we win; we win by fighting back and by rejecting the idea of a double standard.

What the "conservative" is saying is that it's ok for Biden to corruptly use his power as vice president for personal gain but it's wrong for Trump to try and fix that because Biden might run against Trump.

Essentially too many "conservatives" want Trump to act like Bush even though that means that the Democrats win on key issues and conservatives lose.

It's time to end the double standard and stop bringing a noodle to a gun fight.
