Sondland's testimony is not as damning as it's being portrayed. He says Trump never told him that money for US weapons ("security assistance") was conditioned on investigations. Sondland says that such a condition is what he came to believe based on his own inference.
His interpretation may well be correct (I'd bet it was). But his own interpretation is not direct evidence -- it's an interpretation. Given he's the star witness who spoke to Trump -- & he says Trump never even mentioned "security assistance" -- it's actually an evidentiary hole.
Sondland: "I've never heard from Trump that the aid was conditioned on the investigations." Also says Trump never mentioned “security assistance.” This is the star witness who spoke to Trump, & who relayed conditions to Ukraine — which he now says was based on his interpretation.
Sondland: “President Trump never told me directly that the aid was conditioned on the meetings. The only thing we got directly from Guiliani was that the Burisma and 2016 elections were conditioned on the White House meeting. The aid was my own personal, you know, guess.”
Rep. Turner to Sondland: "Let's be clear: no one on this planet—not Trump, Guiliani, Mulvaney, Pompeo—no one told you aid was tied to political investigations, is that correct." Sondland: "That's correct." Sondland's "bombshell" is his interpretation, not what he was told.
A coup doesn’t take place as per a constitutional process.
More hype from a media desperate to see Trump pack his bags.
Isn’t all foreign aid conditional anyways?
It certainly should be.
