Was Donald Trump on the path towards an impeachable offense when he asked about Dirt on Joe Biden's son? Absolutely.
Had Donald Trump done anything impeachable yet, most likely no.
Did the Democrats pounce too soon, absolutely yes.
A president can ask for "details" with any country. A president can ask for details about any country the U.S. has trade relations with.
What a president CANNOT do is imply that details either be created or exaggerated, nor can a President use the initiation of detail requesting to then publicize their request of details as an investigation.
And of course, the big one, a President can not deny a country U.S. Product if the country does not produce anything the President feels is tangible regarding their inquiry, also known as a quid pro quo.
And finally, if the President asks for dirt and receives a report back that there was no dirt, the President would need to publicize the findings even if it makes the target of the Investigation look good and himself look bad.
Using a report that was done by a prior administration for whom a member of the family worked for as "proof" that there was no wrong doing is not enough to deny the next President an opportunity to revisit a situation.
What we are witnessing is Progressive Fascism.
Yes, Trump was definitely tap dancing on an ethics line, absolutely. However, Progressive Fascism has no patience and that is not enough of an excuse to justify their knee jerk reactions.
Remember, if Progressive Fascists can taunt and threaten and pronounce that Donald Trumps sons are going to jail before the Mueller report was released, then President Donald Trump can surely look into the not fully vetted business dealings of Joe Biden's son. Not understanding this type of quid pro quo is what Progressive Fascism is all about.
