Yep. It's not 100% verbatim, and it's wise to read a conversation impressionistically to get how it was perceived. But as these sorts of transcripts go, it's pretty diligenthttps://twitter.com/daveweigel/status/1176892328511979520 …

You will notice - and this latest controversy is by no means the only example - the pattern: 1. "Release X! X will bring down Trump!" 2. X comes out, isn't what we were promised. 3. "We told you releasing just X was a coverup! Release Y! It's not a real investigation until..."

For example, remember when the be-all & end-all of things was the FBI interviewing Mark Judge? And then they did, & nobody ever mentioned him again?

Schiff sure sounds like a guy who is backing away from the original marketing of this story as a quid pro quohttps://twitter.com/DHBerman/status/1176894713909174273 …

It's not in Biden's political interest to focus more attention on Hunter Bidenhttps://twitter.com/NoahCRothman/status/1176895064104230914 …
Dan McLaughlin added,
Noah RothmanVerified account @NoahCRothmanReally weird that Biden is not leveraging this news cycle to his advantage in more visceral, personal terms. Giuliani is accusing him of being "bought" by China in service to his "drug-challenged son." Abandoning dispassion in this moment is, at least, understandable.5 replies 10 retweets 37 likesShow this thread -

It would be useful to get someone more credible than Chris Murphy on the record saying thishttps://twitter.com/RyanLizza/status/1176897474017058817 …
Dan McLaughlin added,
Ryan LizzaVerified account @RyanLizzaThe WP piece has been updated: Murphy said “Zelensky’s ‘entire’ administration was concerned ‘that the aid that was being cut off to Ukraine by the president was a consequence for their unwillingness, at the time, to investigate the Bidens’” but Zelensky himself didn’t say that.Show this thread2 replies 2 retweets 14 likesShow this thread -

Likely true. Also likely true that virtually everyone will just chalk this up to Trump being exactly what they already assumed Trump is likehttps://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1176900396448722944 …

As to 2020, I'm still where I've been for months now: I resent being asked to cast a ballot for a man who is manifestly unfit for the job, but I also not want to hand power to a party that will make the lives of Americans worse & do permanent damage to its vital institutions.

And this is different from every other election in these respects by a matter of degree, or something else?

No, a matter of kind. I didn't love a lot of prior GOP nominees, but I never thought any of them unfit for the job.

Some good trade deals, great economy, great low unemployment #'s, lower taxes, no new wars...seems quite fit to millions of voters.
