He asks them if they could find out what happened regarding a corruption issue. He doesn't pressure them. Doesn't tell them he will withhold aid, doesn't pressure them, or anything. He literally says hey can you find out what happened regarding this.

I am sure a president has never in their terms ever asked a foreign leader what happened with something regarding possible corruption ever.

Lmfao. It's totally nothing.
Yeah this is accurate. If this is "impeachable" then you're essentially giving any presidential candidate a retroactive carte blanche, since a sitting president wouldn't be able to investigate their past. The Obama Admin literally did this to Candidate Trump in a way more aggressive manner.


Youre forgetting the asking a foreign government part.


We work with foreign governments to investigate international crimes all the time. It's really the only way to do it.
