USA Today: Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky on Trump phone call: 'Nobody pushed me'
NEW YORK – Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky told reporters on Wednesday he didn't feel pressure from President Donald Trump to look into political rival Joe Biden even though a summary of a July phone call between the two leaders showed that Trump discussed the former vice president and his son.
“Nobody pushed me,” Zelensky said while seated next to Trump at the United Nations in New York. “Good phone call. It was normal.”
A summary of the July 25 call between Trump and Zelensky is at the center of a controversy over whether the U.S. president improperly used the U.S. diplomatic relationship with Ukraine as leverage to push for an investigation of Biden, the Democratic presidential frontrunner.

WNU Editor: Cannot blame Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky for not wanting to get involved in U.S. politics .... it is a cesspool. But the new Ukraine President is a definite improvement from former Ukrainian President Poroshenko who was always trying to influence U.S. politics .... As Russia collusion fades, Ukrainian plot to help Clinton emerges (The Hill).
... But if I couldn’t walk a witness, judge, and jury through the transcript of Donald Trump’s call with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky and demonstrate that a quid pro quo was more likely than not, then I should just hang up my suit and retire in disgrace. Far from being “scattershot” — as my esteemed colleague Kyle Smith declares — the actual sequence is extremely tight, and the asks are very clear.

Freddy K Lapides quotes NRO
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows that NRO are a bunch of wimpy, back sliding, cheese eating, surrender monkeys.
Here is an example. NRO fired John Derbyshire for "The Talk: Nonblack Version"
So The Root can publish "The Talk", but you cannot switch descriptors and publish the same thing.
That is just an example of the brie eaters at NRO. NRO is a perfect magazine for the Boehners (Boners), Cantors, Mittens and other refuse of the the world.
Sad to say Fred, but you are still an idiot and always will be.
