Ah, this is just another "it depends on what your definition of the word 'is,' is" moment.
Yeah, Joe ... we may not have evidence of your son literally asking you to do what you did, yet ... which is why an investigation is needed ... but, YOU DID threaten the Ukrainians with a warning that you would withhold $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees if they didn't fire their top prosecutor who was looking into corruption charges involving a company on which your son served as a board member. Now, why-o-why did you do that, eh, Joe? What, pray tell, was your motivation for doing that, Joe?

Former Vice President Joe Biden denied Monday that his son Hunter Biden asked him for a favor in Ukraine while serving on the energy board of a Ukrainian energy company.
"We never once discussed it when he was there," Biden told the Associated Press. "There's not a single bit of evidence that's been shown in any reporting that's been done that he ever talked about it with me or asked any government official for a favor."
When he was vice president, Joe Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees for Ukraine if officials did not fire the country's top prosecutor, who was pursuing a corruption investigation of an energy company while his son Hunter was serving on the board.
The connection was revealed in author Peter Schweizer's best-selling book Secret Empires, and the reporting was confirmed in the New York Times.
Hunter Biden was paid as much as $50,000 per month while serving on the board, as his father led the Obama administration's policy with Ukraine. ...
Hmmm ... didn't want your son's $50,000 per month cash cow threatened, eh, Joe?
