I get your concerns about Guiliani but he wasn't running some alternate diplomatic mission with Ukraine or anyone else.  He has stated repeatedly that he was charged with one thing, to get other countries like Ukraine to investigate what happened in 2016.  He may have done it in a ham handed way and he may have made political mistakes by throwing in the Biden corruption, but I still have zero issues with Trump not trusting the bureacracy to carry this water for them.  He has zero idea who he can really trust and who has a vested interest in keeping the lid on what happened.   He had to use someone he trusted and for better or worse it was Guiliani.

As for your comment about 2016 I have to admit I am beyond surprised that you don't want to get to the bottom of what happened.  The DOJ, CIA and State Department of a former administration used the forces of the U.S. government to spy on a Presidential candidate.  That would appall me regardless of party. A candidate for President used a law firm cutout to illegally develop a dossier filled with lies that were leaked to the press and used as justification to spy on the opposing candidate's election team.  That would appall me regardless of party.  And all this led to a 2-year $30M witch hunt that despite their partisanship ended up refuting the entire premise of investigation.  That should appall every American not suffering from TDS.  Your damn right I want to know what happened in 2016 and 2017 leading up to the Mueller investigation and I want anyone that committed a crime to be indicted and if convicted sent to prison. 

And I am appalled that anyone would think that's not needed in order to restore some semblance of faith in government.  If they get away with it then why should we ever believe anything that comes from government or the media?  I'm sorry, but this is far too important to brush it under the rug because it goes to the heart of our Republic and the peaceful transition of power.
