The biggest issue of this tape is that we know now that trump was lying when he said he didn’t know who parnas is... is anyone really surprised he lied about that?
Anyone with $1000 can get a seat at a table at a fund-raiser. Trump met and chatted-up thousands of donors at these things - as does every major candidate.

We have gone over this. John Kelly wouldn't fire her. Mulvaney was all too willing.

So I take it you're of the thinking that even back then Trump's mind was on hamstringing Biden? Because that's currently the most prominent allegation as to why Trump canned the lady, because "she was obstructing his and Rudy's Biden efforts."

ETA....and as for this know-nothing Parnas character, this is what happens when you let children sit at the grownup table.

Trump didn't work for Kelly.

Kelly was a convenience. If Trump was adamant about the firing, he'd have picked up the phone, and fired her.

CNN trying to say Trump was telling Parnas in the recording to get rid of her. Think how asinine that assertion is. Oh, and it would seem to me that with this recording they've shot to hell their claim that Trump fired that lady because she was getting in the way of Operation Bye-Biden, given the fact that Trump was mulling her dismissal in the recording (April 2018) at a time when Biden was insisting he wasn't interested in running for President. Lol

You showed how easily manipulated you are years ago.

You are the "useful idiot" in the most classic sense.

You are incapable of objectivity.

You are either willfully ignorant or a cultist.

I don't see the issue. If he wants to fire someone, he can do so.


I haven't read the whole thread and I imagine this has been covered but I thought Ambassadorships were pretty plum assignments and usually went to major contributors or friends of the President. Plus, most are replaced when the new President takes over. It really doesn't matter what ABC thinks they have because all Ambassadors serve at the behest of their boss, i.e., the President.

Trump talking about firing ambassador

Oh the horror.

He should have sent her to Benghazi and let her be murdered by a bunch of animals that were protesting a YouTube video. Based on experience, the media would have no problem with that.

I heard the recording and I think he would have been silly to NOT fire her.

This is nothing.

ALL of the people who testified said the opposite of this. They said she was a great ambassador and never said anything negative about Trump.




All of the deep state buddies said she was great?



She serves at the pleasure of the president, ambassadors get fired every time there is a change in parties
