Whistle blower Complaint released

Most of this seems to be stuff we already know. 
A lot of innuendo and assumption. 
The complaint seems to to center around: 

• The call 
• Giuliani 
• allegations of Ukrainian 2016 election interference
• Hunter Biden investigation
• Biden pressure to end it

 

The main concern seems to be what we already know. That Trump wanted Ukraine to look into whether or not Biden pressured Ukraine to put an end to the investigation of his son Hunter. It doesn't appear to alter anything or provide anything "new".

The biggest issue out of all of this for me (and likely something that others will hound on) is the fact that Rudy Giuliani seems to be playing far too great of a role for someone who does not actually have an official state role to play. I believe that the President should seriously weigh the good that Giuliani provides him (which isn't much IMHO) versus the problems he has caused (which are many IMHO). Take Giuliani out of this equation and there may not have been any complaint at all. It's not the actions, but the problem is that the actions come from Giuliani. I suspect that if an actual administration official had taken the same actions, that it would have not have been scrutinized to any real degree.

But certainly there is no smoking gun that shows any actual new evidence of quid pro quo, nor does the whistle blower really suggest that he has such evidence.  The fact that Democrats are suggesting that the document provides for the need to continue the  investigation  "election interference" into these allegations suggests that they were not able to actually find any smoking guns here either. But it's enough fodder for the Democrats to justify their continued strategy of "investigate, investigate, investigate".

At the end of the day, either the electorate will reward them for this effort or punish them for not doing much of anything else for the past three years.
