Wall Street Journal Editor Praises Trump’s ‘Legitimate’ Call for China to Dig Up Dirt on Biden

Shortly after President Donald Trump publicly called for China to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden amid an impeachment inquiry into his urging the Ukraine president to do the same thing, Wall Street Journal editor-at-large Gerard Baker praised the president for doubling down, claiming Trump feels this is a “legitimate: thing to ask of foreign powers.

Noting that Trump doesn’t feel “ashamed or sorry” for being outed that he was pressuring the Ukrainian president to investigate the Biden family, Baker said that this shows Trump feels he’s on “pretty solid ground on this topic.”

“Far from this being an abuse of power, as the Democrats would say, to get a foreign government to investigate a domestic political opponent,” Baker added. “He feels there is some suspicious, questionable stuff that Hunter Biden has done in his various roles around the world and he feels it is legitimate to ask foreign countries to investigate.”
