Showing Original Post only (View all)I think Sondland still in cahoots with MF45. Didn't he really thread the needle? [View all]
I think trump has decided he can't defend that they weren't holding up $$. So they are willing to admit (or defend) withholding $$ for two reasons: 1) meeting prerequisite and 2) to requesting investigation but of Burisma only. Both can be defended (albeit weakly) as ok.
Sondland was very careful to qualify his statements, not to utter the Biden word.
And the infamous phone call to trump took place on September 9th (after whistleblower known).
Isn't this just way too convenient? Why did Sondland wait SO long to get Trump's motives?
And then Trump conveniently uses Sondland's words in a presser yesterday?
Sondland throws Pompeo and others under bus (they all knew)? Helps trump so he can blame others.
But the biggest key to me is that Sondland mocked the guy who had lunch and shared a bottle of wine with him. And specifically refuted that he used the word Biden. BTW, what does that other person at lunch say about that?
In addition, Sondland changed his testimony...another sign of guilt and that he's been in this evolving story all along.
All this is way too coincidental.
