Former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign is mounting an offensive strategy in the midst of allegations that President Trump attempted to exert pressure on Ukraine against his political rival.
All of this came to light after a whistleblower filed a report regarding an alleged phone call between Trump and the Ukrainian president discussing the matter. Biden has doggedly insisted that his son did nothing wrong, saying"all the reports indicated that not a single, solitary thing was inappropriate about what my son did. He never talked to me. He never talked to anybody in the administration.” And suggestions that Biden’s actions to remove Shokin were done to benefit his son have been undercut by criticism of the prosecutor from several international leaders who said Biden’s recommendation was justified.
But the ongoing controversy, fueled by Trump’s consistent repetition of the claims, still presents a potentially politically perilous situation for Biden, a candidate who has made his ability to stand firmly against Trump and defeat him in a general election matchup, a centerpiece of his campaign. The next phase, as Congress delves into impeachment matters, is critical for Biden, political experts said.
