New Trump statement on Ukraine call--he says the word "pressure" a lot:





Kelly O'Donnell
@KellyO

NEW: "I KNOW WHEN I GIVE PRESSURE..."

In Houston, the president said more on his Ukraine call with President Zelensky.
"a very very fine conversation. There was no pressure. No nothing. That was not pressure. I know when I give pressure and that was not pressure."

Here he is trying to justify his QUID PRO QUO as soft QUID PRO QUO......like there are two versions of corruption. High Pressure vs. Low Pressure but doesn't deny it happened.


Trump- There was no pressure. No pressure at all. It was like an ask. Well not even an ask. More like a request. Well not so much a request as a suggestion. Well not so much a suggestion...


oh, so now the impeachment defense comes down to the meaning of the word "pressure." This is really sickening, he must go.


He talks like every mob associate wannabee

how do you spell m o r o n
