William Taylor's testimony should be game over for Trump

Taylor, a pro's pro who Trump's amateur goons really should not have messed with, made it clear that there was indeed an organized, not-very-secret conspiracy to extort the government of Ukraine in exchange for announcing phony investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden...

It was all there — the quid, the pro, the quo, the whole sordid scheme laid out end-to-end and narrated capably by a career foreign service officer who is obviously about 300 times brighter and better than any of the dim bulbs who carried out the extortion scheme.

Taylor's testimony sets the stage for more fireworks — Sondland will have to come back to testify again, and it is now pretty clear that everyone from Pompeo to Vice President Mike Pence was aware of this illegal scheme. - The Week

There's Vice President Mike Pence's name again. Again, associated with this Ukraine extortion scandal. No wonder he's standing with tRump and refusing to cooperate with congressional subpoenas.
Sounds like game over for Pencey boy too.

been saying that for a really long time now. He'll be gone too. It's simply a matter of timing at this point from what I can see.
