You seem to believe that because a policy has bipartisan support it isn't corrupt.
Who sets foreign policy?

Just look at Eric Trump for an example of someone worth a lot of money purely because of his last name
Was Eric rich before or after his dad became POTUS?

He doesn’t care if there is corrupt people in politics if they are dems.
He’s being honest for once. An honest thief. Yikes.

there's a formal definition of what is required to be in compliance of that request, and per our own government, Ukraine was meeting that definition
Please link to this. I want to grasp it.

I would not call them allegations...I mean he bragged about it on fricking tv. If the media in this country had a fricking shred of credibility they’d be playing that all day everyday.

If that upsets you you should do a google search and see the people we are sending money to. Its pathetic
"Come on. Ukraine is a US ally that needs our help. Nevermind the fact that their neighbors (the EU) are not helping them and that corruption in Ukraine is so bad that the home of their former president has been turned into a national museum of corruption (which I have been too and I have to say that the pics do not do it justice) and their presidential plane has more bling than Trump Force One." - MSM

Ok? So what, even if true?
If we can waste millions and years investigating a sitting president, why is it not ok to have another country investigate a past Vice President?

In his interview with Cuck Wallace, Steve Scalise said that the Aid Package Law stated that President Trump had to ensure corruption was being rooted out BEFORE any tax payer money was sent to any shite holes.
So why haven't we heard what the hell the current focus is in Ukraine? All I hear is that the Bidens did nothing wrong. If that is not true then Trump DOJ and DOS, bring it on now. Otherwise you've almost lost the PR battle.

Investigations were requested...but apparently when you do that, Democrats sky scream and get in all in their feels. So which one do you want?

Despite what you newbies to foreign policy may think, it is in our best interest not to allow Russia to obtain dominance in Europe.

Here you go.
To whit:

Earlier this week, President Trump cited concerns about corruption as his rationale for blocking security assistance to Ukraine. But in a letter sent to four congressional committees in May of this year and obtained by NPR, Undersecretary of Defense for Policy John Rood informed lawmakers that he "certified that the Government of Ukraine has taken substantial actions to make defense institutional reforms for the purposes of decreasing corruption [and] increasing accountability."
The certification was required by law for the release of $250 million in security assistance for Ukraine. That aid was blocked by the White House until Sept. 11 and has since been released.

So one agency’s opinion.
Uh, yeah. The agency that has to provide clearance per the letter of the law. So, basically, the main "yes/no."

Trump still gets to decide.
He sure does. Sure seems interesting that his opinion varied so widely. You'd think that if he were solely interested in making sure Ukraine was fighting corruption (as opposed to, i don't know, publicly claiming it was investigating his political opponents) the opinion of the agency who looks at those things would be enough. But yes, it's ultimately his call.
