I’ve read and analyzed the transcript of the Zelensky call and the whistleblower complaint, which is based on testimony and news reporting without any first-hand knowledge. Neither document seems to provide evidence of quid pro quo or election interference.

To answer the first part: it is legal for the United States to work with foreign governments on investigations, especially an investigation involving American influence.

Whether it is appropriate for the President to discuss that on this particular call is simply a political question. But it is a question of style, not legality.

You don't consider leveraging foreign aid to compel a foreign country to investigate a political opponent to be a gross abuse of power? The party of "law and order," indeed.

So politicians can do whatever they want - criminal and unethical - and they can't ever be investigated because they might be running against someone in the future? Really?

Minus of course where literally right after Zelensky says he wants to buy more US arms, Trump says "I have a favor though"... because that is quid pro quo.
