OPINION:
When our country gives foreign aid to another country, it is frequently done in an effort to affect the foreign country’s policies. We have historically tried to eliminate human-rights abuses and improve living conditions and policies with such aid.
President Trump’s request that Ukraine investigate former Vice President Joe Biden’s lack of ethics is not unreasonable. In a clear abuse of power, Biden requested that Ukraine cease investigating the Biden family, and it complied. This should be dealt with and brought to light, yet the U.S. media have ignored it in their knee-jerk adherence to the Democratic playbook.
To accuse Mr. Trump of wrongdoing when clearly Mr. Biden is the one guilty of official misconduct is simply transference on a grand scale.
