Because Shokin was NOT fired in December 2015. That's clearly substantiated by the Ukrainian record. Poroshenko may well have agreed but talk is cheap. It's true that the United States with Biden as point man (and the U.S. Senate and the IMF) kept up the pressure. But the loan guarantee funds were not released until an Obama - Poroshenko meeting in early April 2016 right after the Ukrainian Parliament formalized the Shokin firing.
Cannot watch the testimony, but it seems like we are still at the "I don't like what trump did, and it's not the norm so therefore I hate trump and even though it's not illegal what he did, it's not the norm...."
Which one do you live in, or does that make any difference to you? Most of us living in the United States are aware that we aren't perfect, but we really don't care to live under a dictator.
You're not. There is an Election in less than a year. You will have your chance.
And what an insult to the poor people around the world suffering under Dictators.
"Holmes joined Sondland and others during the lunch meeting and told investigators Trump was talking so loudly he could hear the president clearly on the ambassador’s phone. 'I then heard President Trump ask, quote, 'So he’s going to do the investigation?' Holmes testified. 'Ambassador Sondland replied that, 'He’s going to do it'"
"Whataboutism" can't explain away the lack of respect displayed toward to these outstanding Americans.
What POS are you referring to ?
Is it the one that watched the Biden video and needs more information, but so easily changes a favor into a demand on a whim of his experience ?
How does he become an expert when he knows so little about the Leader/President of the Ukraine ? What nonsense !!!
He sure eats it up when the democrats blow smoke up his rear !!!
Day three with these witnesses is a total failure for the dummycrats !!!

Benedict Arnold was an American military officer who served as a general during the American Revolutionary War. Was he "outstanding" just because he served his country in a military capacity? I respect our Military more than you know.... My family was proud to serve. But character in uniform tells me who is outstanding and who has some serious delusions of Grandeur.
Nope. It's not in the transcript. Now you can see why Trump released it. Too many liars on the left.
Overhearing only one side of a conversation is incomplete. The witness never heard what Trump said.
Maybe try reading the testimony given under oath. He heard both people because Sondland was holding the phone away from his ear because it was so loud.
Just in case you would like to read the actual testimony. Page 24 so you don't even have to bother reading the whole thing. I know many will not do this even thought I have made it really simple to find the exact statement.

Who? Barr? Overhearing one side of a conversation is incomplete.
Nah, we're doing okay. This country is resilient; we'll survive DT, then clean up the steaming pile and move on.
