"CNN sounded the "breaking news" alarm Friday after Republican John Kasich -- a CNN contributor and frequent critic of President Trump -- bucked the GOP and expressed his support for impeachment."
"During the 2016 race, Kasich and Trump frequently locked horns -- so much so that Kasich boycotted that year's Republican National Convention in Cleveland, where Trump officially accepted the GOP nomination for president, even though the event was held in Kasich's home state."
“Withholding military aid, vital military aid to a nation like Ukraine... so that a political operation can take place, investigate this thing around the server," Kasich explained. "And 'We’re going to withhold the aid until do you that.’ To me, it’s totally inappropriate. It’s an abuse of power."

1. Surprise everyone, the phone call that resulted in the whistle blower complaint was never about an investigation into Biden as the made up Schiff parody and MSM and dems have been telling us(digging up dirt on Biden and asking 7 times-never happened) it was about corruption tied to the 2016 election.
So I stand corrected in my previous assumptions/opinions here that it was. This makes it crystal clearly NOT tying this money with or making a Quid Pro Quo based on anything to do with Biden and there is no evidence anywhere of that(other than completely made up from guys like Schiff)
2. Is it legal for a president to investigate corruption in a foreign government(that has nothing to do with his 2020 rival). Why would we even ask that question? Oh yeah, it's Trump.
But it was ok for democrats to investigate the same corruption into the 2016 campaign involving the Ukraine under the same circumstances(that they thought would hurt Trump) but not ok for the president to do it?.........here's the proof, this letter was from democrats:
3. The release of the money that we are told was Quid Pro Quo had to be released by the end of Sept. It was and the Ukraine never provided any "favors" especially with regards to Biden(that we now know the phone call had nothing to do with). The money was not released earlier than that because of the concern for corruption in the Ukraine.........that the democrats are on record with sharing, note the document above.
4. The position of the dems here is that they can investigate and be concerned about Ukraine's corruption if they think it will favor them but if Trump does the same thing..........he needs to be impeached.
5. (We already knew that Kasich hated Trumps guts)

Another saga in an investigation, that comes up empty on why it was started(Quid Pro Quo for Biden dirt-no evidence) that keeps morphing into something different with a new spin to go for something different.
Remember that Mueller investigation that was the smoking gun for 2 years with Russia collusion?
When that came up empty, it morphed into an obstruction accusation(absurd to find obstruction in an investigation when the target is innocent), then that really came up empty after the embarrassing Mueller testimony.
We were told every step of the way how bad it was for Trump.......even as the goal posts shifted.
Funny how that is forgotten or the numerous other impeachable accusations that have come and gone.
Now we have a new one and we are told that this is the REAL DEAL. But the real deal has already had to morph from the absolute on Biden and the 2020 election......to, whoops, what we really meant all along was that it's about the 2016 election.
Like the Boy who cried wolf story........ only the village people are so gullible that they keep believing the boy..............because the moral of that story only applies to people using critical thinking.
Since hate is driving the dynamic in this case, critical thinking eludes half the people and they will believe anything if it convicts the person that they hate so much.
