Sen. Ron Johnson has no issues with President Trump’s call with Volodymyr Zelensky. But he does have a problem with the allegation that records of the call were restricted.

In an interview, the Wisconsin Republican, pointed to a reporter’s copy of the whistleblower report, singling out Page 3, which alleged that White House officials treated records of the Zelensky call differently than other calls.

 

According to the whistleblower complaint, White House officials "had intervened to lock down all records of the phone call" and were directed to move electronic transcripts to a more secure electronic system.

“I would not be happy. We’ll find out exactly what transpired here. To me, of all this stuff, that’s the part that concerns me,” Johnson said. “I’ve been around the president enough [the call summary] is just classic Trump.”

“I was led to believe [that summary] was all that’s available,” Johnson added. “I would be a little upset to find out there’s a completely verbatim one.”

You mean besides Trump saying he withheld the funding? 

 

You must be working on some bigger stories for your legion of reporters to quote and missed that. 

 

Except you're leaving out the context -- as always -- to make something untrue seem possible. 

 

He said he withheld funding for multiple countries at that time (which is backed by the facts -- multiple countries aid packages were being held up -- because Trump wanted more from all of them. You know, like he's said on the stump since day one of his campaign). 

 

There's no strong (or even semi-strong) evidence the money being withheld was because of this call or the "favor" besides a second hand whistleblower saying so. The transcript doesn't show it to be the case, nor do the facts.  

 

This is one of those slick lies you fall for because you trust the word of proven liars rather than your own judgment or past experience. This is exactly the same as "all 17 intel agencies agreed with the ICA" -- which they didn't. Ever. But it sounds plausible, so you parrot it. Even three years after it's been disavowed.

Seems important context, no? 

 

Why wait 16 days and lie to the country saying you don't know what's in the complaint when, he clearly did?

 

Schiff is a liar.

You keep saying that.  It is completely normal and not suspect at all.  Someone heard something that someone else heard which might be illegal and reported it appropriately.  They didn’t leak it or claim to have first hand knowledge.

FIFY

 

you're an idiot.

Nah. You can't see it because you have admitted in this thread that you think caring about your country as an adult is "sad" and reading material for yourself rather than waiting for the media to translate it for you is the thing only "conspiracy" people do. 

 

Those are the positions you staked out in this thread. 

 

Feel proud. Most everyone here is laughing at you. Not with you. :lol:

Now, you litigate for a living? Does that mean you spend a significant time in court?
