Trump's "no quid pro quo" claim to Sondland came after Sondland asked him a broad question-

Apparently Trump's "no quid pro quo" claim to Sondland came after Sondland asked him a broad question: "What do you want from Ukraine?"


@RepSwalwell
Reality check: The Ambassador called you and asked broadly, “what do you want from Ukraine?” With a guilty conscience, you repeated, “no quid pro quo.” Problem: He didn’t ask you if there was a quid pro quo. You just happened to know there was one.
