Republicans are trying to draw a line btw investigating the Russia investigation/2016 election and investigating Joe Biden.

But that Trump would have crossed the line if the $$ was held up unless Biden was investigated.
But they are missing a piece of their own wackadoo Ukraine/2016 story, which is that, according to Giuliani (who's been running the show at Trump's request), Biden is a key figure.
