But rather than do that, the left decided to Impeach Trump for asking.
No , the left decided to Impeach Trump for abusing the power of the office to gain advantage over his rival.

Well you're about 300% wrong...Plus you don't have a lick of evidence of such a claim...Just a bunch of wishful thinking...
There was no Quid Pro Quo and even if there was, so what...Congress used Quid Pro Quo when they determined to give Ukraine the 500 million but if Trump used Quid Pro Quo to hold up the money temporarily he's guilty...

BTW, I'm curious . . .
How long have you been channeling Trump's inner motivations?
I don't think you have clue one about Trump or his motivations. I don't think your reality testing regarding Trump is above 0.0000001% horrible.

I don't know how much more legit you can get than a perpetrator admitting his crime on camera...What, you get your news from Whoopi and Joy???

Sorry, but I don’t think you have a grasp of trumps cares and motivations any more than gortex. I don’t expect he cares for anything other than himself and the adulation he gets from his devotees like you.

He’s lost the trade war with China.
He’s losing the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria.
He’s created a massive stock market bubble with the buybacks from his tax break, while actual business and manufacturing investment is at its lowest point since 08.
He’s failed to create a functional banking or healthcare system.
And all the people on here crowing about how he will crush sanders are delusional. Could he beat sanders? Possibly. But it’s also possible he will lose. And anyone who thinks otherwise is clearly suffering from fanboyism delusion.

I think you are also misunderstanding something, it is not the duty of the President to enforce our laws in other countries, but to enforce ours laws as it applies to US Citizens who interact with other countries.
That is incorrect. The President of the US has no authority over other sovereign states. Nor does the office adjudicate law or police the same. Those are the responsibilities of other departments, the law enforcement of respective states and of the Judicial branch.
... by asking a non-hostile nation to restart investigations of a series of potential crimes perpetrated by said rival, after said rival had previously forced the investigation close through threats and extortion.

maybe use proper channels would have been a more logical choice...
But that's just me...
Peace
but does it negate the entire process regardless of the method used? I think it's an important argument.
And if you think the IC was trustworthy and not at all against Trump, you might have missed a few things that have been happening over the last 3 years. Who should he have called?

It, unfortunately, has no bearing. Doing the right thing, finding a way around the machinations of those who aren't playing by the rules in order to catch them, doesn't make it legal.
I haven't been following too closely, but from what I've gathered in a bit of flipping between left wing lunatic and right wing lunatic radio on the way to work:
Biden and others committed SERIOUS crimes. Trump probably crossed some lines he shouldn't have in an effort to catch the bad guys who had/have the whole system by the balls.
Was there a better way? There should be - but not if the bad guys have control of the proper channels.
I mean, isn't this all based on something Trump did in an effort to expose and prosecute the very serious crimes of the Bidens (and others?)
Sorry just figured I'd finish the story for you since you forgot some stuff.
Corrupt politicians will increasingly be scrutinized to the point of eventually being arrested and imprisoned, if not executed for high treason.
