zelensky is not an american diplomat working under orders from trump. who cares what he says? all that matters is what that text shows, trump was misusing the power of his office so that his personal attorney and the State Dept. could tell the Ukrainian president if he wanted the 330 million in needed military aid that Trump had frozen, after Congress had approved it, then he had to play ball and investigate the Bidens. it is all there. why try to defend this piece of shit with irrelevant crap from people not under Trump's control? who cares what they say? just attempting to make a bribe, with a quid pro quo, is a crime, whether it is successful or even if it is necessary. read the law.
