LOL...I gave you enough rope to hang yourself, with you guys never even read or if you read it understood what the transcript said, and what the whistle blower confirmed...that Trump's stated he was going to have the DOJ proceed with an investigation...

And now you are doubling down on your ignorance.

What's funny is that I asked Jersey Girl to do her "homework" several times, in that I knew she was just following your lead ...but she didn't get the hint.

So now you don't care if he asked the DOJ to proceed...and keep asking why he did not ask the DoJ...even after he specifically said he was going to ask Barr, and whistle blower said he heard the same thing.

Classic canpakes...we all stick out foot in out mouth on this crap, it's not like we are the experts we think we are, just say you got sloppy, missed it, and move on, don't double down it only makes it worse. It is impossible to sort through this crap 100% and get it all.

If you really want to continue with this...and ask again " Now, why didn’t Trump ask the DoJ to investigate?"


My answer is the same, "he didn't have to, he is president, and it is his right to order an investigation"... but..."how many times did Trump tell Z., he was going to have the DoJ proceed with the investigation...you can count them in the transcript?"

He didn't have to.

What's funny is that you think I've spent any time at all following your exchanges with any other poster besides myself. I've seen some of canpakes and other's replies to you. I have not followed your line of discussion with them.

Pick something you'd like me to swear on to that effect and I'll prepare a statement and sign it with my screen name in front of God and everybody.

If you recall (and I know you don't because you don't recall what you or anyone else said 5 minutes ago), I posed a simple question to you. Why? Because I saw that Tish posed the question to you, you never replied to it so I decided to take a crack at you myself.

And I've continued to take that crack at you intermittently throughout this thread and to date, you have not made a response that makes rational sense. Don't believe me? Look at your responses in the summary of your exchanges with me that I posted.

Oh and if you bother to look at them, read the questions to you and your replies that go around in circles reaching no logical conclusion whatsoever. None.

There's not a poster on this thread who needs a hint from you. What people are looking for from you are answers that make sense. To date, you've failed to provide that.

That's funny. I had the impression that you're shooting heroin and posting between nods.

Oops. You forgot to bring rope, but you’ll probably not be able to grab some anyway given as how you’ve so thoroughly tied yourself up in knots. : )

Trump says a lot of things. Most of the time, those things are completely untrue. You can try to distract with that again, but I’m asking about what he did or did not do. Not “said”. Did, or did not do. I’m pretty sure that at your advanced age, you’ve figured out the difference between say and do. Am I right about that?

Just to remind you, the question is: Why didn’t Trump ask the DoJ to investigate?


Markk wrote:And now you are doubling down on your ignorance.

Step away from the mirror. Instead, tell me why didn’t Trump ask the DoJ to investigate?


Markk wrote:What's funny is that I asked Jersey Girl to do her "homework" several times, in that I knew she was just following your lead ...but she didn't get the hint.

I think that she has already ‘gotten the hint’ that you are unable to address the question of why didn’t Trump ask the DoJ to investigate.


Markk wrote:So now you don't care if he asked the DOJ to proceed...and keep asking why he did not ask the DoJ...even after he specifically said he was going to ask Barr, and whistle blower said he heard the same thing.

Oh, I do care if he asked the DoJ to proceed. As I’ve asked about eleventy-four times now, “Why didn’t Trump ask the DoJ to investigate?”

I know that reading English is part of your job requirements, so you don’t need to pretend that you’ve somehow lost that skill.

Apparently, you don’t ‘get’ that this is a super simple question, with a super-simple answer. I’d wager that everyone else gets why you keep avoiding giving an answer to it.

Why didn’t Trump ask the DoJ to investigate?


Markk wrote:If you really want to continue with this...and ask again " Now, why didn’t Trump ask the DoJ to investigate?"

OK. Here you go:

Why didn’t Trump ask the DoJ to investigate?


Markk wrote:My answer is the same, "he didn't have to, he is president, and it is his right to order an investigation"... but..."how many times did Trump tell Z., he was going to have the DoJ proceed with the investigation...you can count them in the transcript?"

You haven’t answered why Trump didn’t ask the DoJ to investigate. You’re just trying to dodge the question by stating that he didn’t have to. I’d counter that he didn’t have to lie to the President of another nation about that, or his intent.

So, why didn’t Trump ask the DoJ to investigate?

Says the guy who has twisted himself into a macrame planter to avoid the obvious to the tune of what, 13 pages or so now?

So let's just talk about the table setting theory for a moment (or 20 more pages whatever it takes because snow).

Why did Trump ask Ukraine to make a public announcement about their proposed investigations into the Bidens in advance of the investigation itself?

Wait. I thought it was me parroting people? Now it's Cam on his porch parroting me. That's a lot of bird crap you're throwing around there.

I don't need to know what anyone else thinks the correct answer should be when I have the ability to formulate my own opinion then state it quite clearly in oh, I dunno, probably one sentence.

Can you? Can you do it in under 20 pages of exchanges?

Time will tell won't it?

Man. Yet again Markk can’t keep who said what, and when they said it straight even though it’s right here in one self-contained thread.

Typical.
