@BWMagus Impeachment is a political process, not a criminal trial, so the rules of evidence are different.
But even without that taken into consideration, yes, there is evidence Trump did something wrong. Campaign finance law states "It shall be unlawful for a foreign national, directly or indirectly, to make a contribution or donation of money or other thing of value, or to make an express or implied promise to make a contribution or donation, in connection with a federal, state, or local election.”
There is no evidence that Biden took any action to intentionally benefit his son, nor is there any evidence of wrongdoing by Hunter Biden. Ukrainian prosecutors found as much. So what other reason would Trump want Biden investigated unless it was to get dirt on a potential 2020 opponent (a.k.a. a "thing of value")?

@BWMagus 1. If there were things in the phone call he didn't want released for security reasons, maybe he shouldn't keep insisting what he released was the full transcript. Since it wasn't, he's lying.
2. "Maybe he's just an obstinate jackass who doesn't want to cooperate with assholes who launched a two year long investigation based on an obviously false dossier."
The investigation was based on what George Stephanopoulos told the Australian official.
3. "there doesn't appear to be criminal wrongdoing here"
Wrong! Campaign finance law states "It shall be unlawful for a foreign national, directly or indirectly, to make a contribution or donation of money or other thing of value, or to make an express or implied promise to make a contribution or donation, in connection with a federal, state, or local election.”
There is no evidence that Biden took any action to intentionally benefit his son, nor is there any evidence of wrongdoing by Hunter Biden. Ukrainian prosecutors found as much. So what other reason would Trump want Biden investigated unless it was to get dirt on a potential 2020 opponent (a.k.a. a "thing of value")?
"Even the Dem's witnesses cannot testify, with certainty, to anything other than what was in that phone call summary"
Gee, it's almost like a phone call between two world leaders is supposed to be confidential.
"and the Ukrainian government seems to be uniformly stating they were never told of a quid pro quo, right up to President Zelensky.
"
The same Ukrainian government that uniformly stated neither Joe nor Hunter Biden did anything wrong?
