Yeah. the tl;dr amounts to Trump: Yeah im draining the swamp over here you should help me out with that. Zelensky: word.

Best part to me:

Trump: Well, she's going to go through some things. (referring to Ivanovich)

If I were her id be shitting myself.

Can you link the part where he threatened to withhold military aid in exchange for investigating Biden’s kid and the part where he pressured them 8 times? I must have missed this.

How does Trump describe Shokin?
quote:

“I heard you had a prosecutor who was very good and he was shut down and that’s really unfair. A lot of people are talking about that, the way they shut your very good prosecutor down and you had some very bad people involved.”

“There’s a lot of talk about Biden’s son, that Biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that so whatever you can do with the attorney general would be great. Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution so if you can look into that… It sounds horrible to me.“

“I heard the prosecutor was treated very badly and he was a very fair prosecutor…”
I did not see any threats. I did not see any strong arm tactics.

All I see is a president who clearly did not understand anything about the Shokin situation.

It doesn't feel right that this was released. It is wrong. Frick the democrats impeding the President like this. Who will talk comfortable to any POTUS again?

Ok, so I read it all. No threat to withhold aid and nothing more than asking them to work with the us to ensure nothing illegal happened

Who cares?

You gonna support impeachment over his description of Shokin?

Let’s not move the goalposts here.

And Zalensky saying he wants to drain his swamp makes WaPo's story calling him corrupt fake news and proof of a deep State on the wrong side.

Trump: "I would like you to do us a favor though because our country has been through a lot and Ukraine knows a lot about it. I would like you to find out what happened with this whole situation with Ukraine, they say Crowdstrike... I guess you have one of your wealthy people... The server, they say Ukraine has it."


"the Server, they say Ukraine has it".

Bill Barr's gleuts just tightened up. Rudy should be a Special Prosecutor.

That’s it!?!?

NO quid pro quo.
NO mention of withholding money.
NO mention of money at all.
NO talk of the current election.

The ONLY thing Trump did was ask them to get to the bottom off all the mess of their involvement with the previous election (something the Muller investigation should have already asked about two+ years ago ) and clear up their current corrupt connections.

So, ill finish reading but are we basically impeaching Trump because he's doing his job and people like him?



yup, he made a promise on draining the swamp


I kinda wonder what that would look like if he were actually trying to look into corruption

Their issue isnt with Trump, its with the folks that elected him

Absolutely correct. But here’s the thing - democrats don’t give two shits about what’s best for this country, they ONLY want two things: get the orange man, and “fundamentally change” our society. And if they had to choose only one, right now they want Trump more than anything.

FWIW I don't see anything wrong with the what Trump said. But the Dems are going to hang their hat on "Trump asked them to investigate one of his opponents." That will surely stick with the far left, but will it stick with traditional democrats / moderates?

Omgaw Trump was literally trying to interfere with an election that already happened

He obviously isn't fit for the Presidency if he doesn't know how to properly interfere in an election.

Democrats claimed there was quid pro quo which there is none.
