Even on Fox News they are saying the testimony is very damaging to Trump.
Trump tried to extort Ukraine on the phone call.
Ukraine knew the aid was cut off.
The whole thing was set up in advance by Trump's personal lawyer, Giuliani.
Guilty as charged your honor. Impeach.
Have you watched any of the hearings this AM? The Republicans have really raised some great points and it all seems like hearsay/opinion. There are no facts.
Where are the facts? You don't impeach a President based on sore loser feelings, that ain't how it works. LOL
Ratcliffe just did it again — good one.
Democrats defence that Ukrainian President was forced by Trump to say those positive things.
But he never even opened up an investigation nor contacted Barr, so how did he feel do threatened and forced by Trump??!
Trump froze the aid. HE did; no one else. Just because you don't like the facts doesn't make them fake. Another fact; Ukrainians died because they did not have access to the money to buy the weapons that would help them fight the Russian bullies next door. And that was because of, guess who? Trump. Because Congress already approved the aid package and once again, Trump went over their heads and did what he wanted for his own personal gain. That is the truth.

In addition, Ukraine didn’t know the aid was being withheld until August 29th 2019, the aid was released September 11th 2019, so are you saying in that time (barely two weeks) that Ukrainian’s died and Trump is to blame?
Maybe. Probably. I'm not sure what the situation was with foreign aid and Ukraine then, so I can't say for sure. But I have never agreed with all of Obama or any president's decisions. As for your second comment, are you suggesting that people can't die in 13 days of war? Because they certainly can. And whose fault was it when Congress approved the aid and Trump froze it? Trump's. Trump is not above Congress in our government. We have three coequal branches of government: legislative, executive, and judicial. Congress and the president are supposed to be coequal. And so far, none of the Republicans have come up with a good explanation as to why Trump froze the aid at all. The most logical explanation was exactly what Mick Mulvaney said: because he wanted a favor from Zelensky. He only released the aid when staffers became concerned and Trump became concerned about this situation blowing up in his face.
Democrats aren’t just the clown act, they are the whole freaking circus!
