"Oh, that's very different."
"Never mind."
Who cares what he was opposed to. He’s not the President.
It looks like he’s pulling a reverse Frank Pentangeli.
The most frustrating part of all of this is that even if Trump did everything that hes being accused of...
...EVERYTHING...
Theres NOTHING WRONG with what he did or said.
He is perfectly within his rights as president to request an investigation into corruption no matter WHO the offenders are and perfectly within his right to hold taxpayer monies until his demands are met.
This is infuriating.
I hope you are right but this testimony seems pretty daming. I would hope people suggest this is not a crime etc. That would make the best sense to fight this.
I feel like Im living in an alternate universe.
This entire s**t-show is focused on what people THINK was said or done, when theres a TRANSCRIPT of what was said and done.
And why would Pres. Trump worry about Biden being nominated anyway? Given the rigors of campaigning, by November it would be a matter of beating Jill Biden.
Quid pro quo isnt a crime, as you said.
The Donkeys suffer from cerebral constipation, but Eric Fartwell has demonstrated the proper technique for relief of this malady.
Saying that he doesn’t recall is not exactly a denial.
Has he been asked if he’d been in contact with Bush or Rice recently?
Re: the unsecured phone call”
In other words, “He ain’t as smart as he thinks he is?”
So, how long has Sondland been a Republican? How often did he contribute large sums to Republicans? Hes from OREGON. I have family on the left side of the Cascades. They are, as are most on that side, hard core Leftists. I realize the right side of the Cascades is more Conservative. I am just wondering if he was/is a plant. Did he ask to be the Ambassador to the EU? Wondering where he gets his animus toward Trump. Even Trumps enemies who have already testified have said there was no QPQ or bribery.
Neither is it a confirmation.
They only need a majority to bar him from holding public office.
The usual screaming head are ignoring the 4 fatal words in order to hype this lie.
“In his personal view”
That right there makes it meaningless noise.
The only thing missing is a crime.
Exactly.
Sojndland later testified that Trump told him, “No quid pro quo.”
So it all makes no sense. Another nothingburger.
So let me understand this.
There is a written signed law ( by Clinton) that the 2 countries would investigate corruption
Trump follows that law and wants an assurance from a guy who ran against corruption. Doesn’t matter what intermediaries convey that message
Therefore doing the right this is a nefarious “ quid pro quo”
I hope Nunes or Jordan rips him and the Dems on this very point...
Oh good, we’re going to treated to your pearl clutching all day!
How often do we have to go through this sh*t with you and the other Nervous Nellies?
It’s going to be a long day!
“The most frustrating part of all of this is that even if Trump did everything that hes being accused of...”
But if Trump is proven to have lied about anything isn’t that a bad thing for him?
