Seems he is protecting himself (jmho) and placing the blame on President Trump!

Because Trump is an upstart. How dare Trump run the foreign policy in Ukraine. It is not his responsibility.... oh, wait it is his responsibility.

No what he’s doing is giving the Rs in the senate who DESPERATELY want Trump gone, a TINY glimmer of a reason to throw him out.

The trust of the senate Rs around here is completely without merit.

67 will be quite hard to reach.

If it was a simple majority we could wave goodbye to Trump.

Directly contradicts his testimony of 2 weeks ago.

And again. SO WHAT? There is NO CRIME here.

Ukraine did not launch investigation and got the aid. so even if the clown assumed there Quid Pro Quo was being demanded it was never done. There is NO such crime as “quid pro quo”.

To start with the Ukrainians have all ready shot this lie dead. There is no truth to these accusation at the President. It a wholly make up attempt to distract and deflect from real criminal wrong doing by the Democrats in the Ukraine during Obama’s regime

Ukraine Foreign Minister: U.S. Aid, Investigations Were ‘Never’ linked

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/11/14/ukraine-foreign-minister-aid-investigations-were-never-linked/

READ THE TRANSCRIPT you lying scumbags in the Fake News

https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Unclassified09.2019.pdf

Here is the problem for the Democrat Fascists and their toadies in the Fake New Media.

We will let them assume EVERYTHING is true and accurate in the “transcripts. We allow this nonsense of hearsay, feeling and assumptions to be allowed as “evidence”.

There is still no crime here.

If “Quid Pro Quo” or “bibery” or what ever they are lyinging call it today is a “Crime”, Joe Biden is guilty of one while VP.

Watch the video of him bragging about it.

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/09/27/flashback_2018_joe_biden_brags_at_cfr_meeting_about_withholding_aid_to_ukraine_to_force_firing_of_prosecutor.html

The President would have a legal obligation to investigate this “crime” So if it is a crime, Trump was doing his duty, it is is NOT a crime what Biden did it would still need to be investigated to verify. In either case Trump is not guilty of anything.

It is either a crime or it is not. It cannot be a crime for Trump but not for Biden. If it is a crime, Trump is legally obligated to help investigate Bidens actions. .

Either way there is no legal standing to this continuing farce in the US House

This is getting clearer and clearer.
Giuliana is the rotten apple here!
Trump should never have trusted him.
I haven’t been able to stomach him for YEARS.

I think he’s saying trump wants this or that and it’s what GIULIANI wants. And Trump trusted him.

“ I later came to believe that the resumption of security aid would not occur until there was a public statement from Ukraine committing to the investigations of the 2016 election and Burisma, as Mr. Giuliani had demanded.”

He was never told that - he assumed it.

I am starting to agree with you. I do wish Sondland did not say the quid pro quo line here.

So let me get this straight: They want Trump impeached for doing what Biden did - which Trump didn’t do - yet they are OK with Biden becoming POTUS

“Our only interest was to advance longstanding U.S. policy and to support Ukraine’s fragile democracy.”

The President is in charge of foreign policy. Not Sondland. We actually VOTED for the President....not for ambassador Sondland..he got exactly ZERO votes.

“Quid pro quo” isn’t a crime, as you said.

It didn’t poll well so Dems tried ‘bribery’ but nobody says that was the case.

Obama refused to release funds to Pakistan and other counties because they weren’t protecting homosexuals. Don’t remember him being impeached for it.

Sorry Never Trumper. As usual you are completely wrong

That this clown assumed something is utterly irrelevant. LISTEN to what was said. This is his PERSONAL OPINION.

So if I am corrupt in my relations with a foreign country, I can run for President and be shielded from investigation??????

Nope

As usual you Never Trumper are selectively picking and choosing which parts to hear

You are totally 100% wrong. His personal opinion of what Guilliani was doing is utterly irrelevant.

“There is NO such crime as “quid pro quo””

But the left has deemed not being liked by them is a crime.
