Daily Mail: Donald Trump says transcript of call to Ukraine's president will prove 'there was no pressure' to find dirt on Joe Biden in exchange for military aid as he dodges Democrat demand to see whistle-blower's complaint in full
* President Trump says that he'll release the transcript of a July call with Ukraine's president to prove 'there was no pressure' attached to military aid
* He says he pressured Ukraine to investigate the Bidens and to clear up corruption but did not link the two together, as he's been accused of
* Suggested Tuesday that he plans to release a transcript of the conversation
* Chris Christie and Lindsey Graham have also signaled that a transcript is coming
* Democrats thirsty for impeachment are seeking a copy of the whistle-blower complaint that started the saga and Trump is refusing to provide it
* Law requires that Congress see the complaint but Trump's administration is arguing that the person who submitted it is not a true whistleblower
President Trump says that he'll release the transcript of a July call with Ukraine's president to prove 'there was no pressure' put on the nation to probe Joe Biden and his son to secure the release of military aid.
Trump told reporters waiting for him outside the United Nations that he initially withheld $390 million from Ukraine as a tactic to squeeze defense dollars out of European nations.
'When you see the call, when you see the readout of the call, which I assume you'll see at some point, that call was perfect. There was no pressure put on them whatsoever,' he said of his conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
He quickly added, 'But there was pressure put on with respect to Joe Biden. That's something they should be looking at.'

Update #2: Donald Trump dismisses talk of impeachment over call to Ukraine President -- ABC News Online
WNU Editor: No one in the media or in Congress has seen the transcript of the call, has seen the whistle-blower complaint, or even know who the whistle-blower is. On the Ukraine side, their foreign minster made it very clear over the weekend that no pressure was put on the Ukrainian President by President Trump .... Ukraine Foreign Minister Denies Media Reports That President Trump Pressured Ukraine President Zelenskiy (September 22, 2019). So why the media narrative that President Trump pressured Ukraine President Zelenskiy? And why the media narrative that there is nothing to the claims that then Vice-President Biden pressured Ukraine even though the former Vice-President has bragged in front of many witnesses that he did pressure the Ukraine government to fire the prosecutor who was investigating his son .... Joe Biden's 2020 Ukrainian nightmare: A closed probe is revived (The Hill). This is textbook example of "fake news". It is also revealing to me that the same news outlets and the same politicians who pushed the false Russian-collusion story, coupled with the use of anonymous sources, are now pushing this story.

Today in one sentence: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced a formal impeachment inquiry into Trump; Trump ordered Mick Mulvaney to withhold more than $391 million in military aid from Ukraine days before he pressured the Ukrainian president to investigate Joe Biden's son; Trump admitted that he withheld military aid from Ukraine, but blamed it on the United Nations for not contributing more to the Eastern European nation; and the whistleblower has requested to speak to both the House and Senate Intelligence Committees.

ReplyDeleteThis behavior of the dimz is beyond desperation. It seems unfathomable. If DJT is shown to be truthful the dimz are finished. It seems each stunt that fails increases the chances there will be a dim-0-crat party only on the two coasts and it will be weakened even there.
They are elected to get things done. This is not getting things done. I'm beginning to think there may be an historical backlash come 2020.
Biden is stuck if reports of his bragging concerning the pressure he put on the Ukrainian government over his son are confirmed. His chances in the 2020 election are over. He won't be suitable for even catfish bait.
If, as the Ukraine's foreign minister says, there was no pressure put on his government the dimz will have to fabricate something beyond comprehension to wiggle out of their own failed trap.
This is not about running the country it is about power and they are grasping at anything to get it. The country be damned.
Roger,

You do not realize how right you are. The Dimz plan on sending a few tens of thousands of Californian citizens back to the 19th century.

Step 1 Tree huggers make it prohibitively expensive and all but impossible to accomplish clearing power lines.
Step 2 We get fires and preventable fire related deaths.
