Dude, hearsay is way better than actual proof.
It doesn’t matter what the witness says, it is only important what the media says that he said.
It wasn’t even hearsay as he testified that NOBODY ever told him that there was a QPQ. He testified that he presumed it. So he and the media are relying on his imagination. What a joke.
Hearsay: Janet has a black eye. Janet tells Sue that Jim punched her. Sue testifies against Jim.
Sondland scenario: Janet has a black eye. Janet tells nobody what happened. Sondland PRESUMES Jim must have hit her. Sondland testifies against Jim.
