ahahahahahah this is the guy who Trump was saying exonerated him
― frogbs, Wednesday, 20 November 2019 14:46 (four years ago) link
I assume he doesn't know what that word means.
― Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 20 November 2019 14:47 (four years ago) link
The thing is, sure they did this at the direct request of the president, but that's just hearsay. How do we know if the president's orders were really an accurate depiction of what he truly wanted in his heart of hearts and not just a funny gag he was playing on the three amigos? The reality is that Trump said "just kidding" and let the aid go with no enforced public statement, so no harm no foul.

Direct contradiction of Volker's weak ass "talk with Rudy" explanation.

'Kay well if Trump didn't have a cardiac event the other day that's definitely not going to be the explanation for his return to the hospital today.

Is it just me or is Sondland having way too much fun throwing Trump and team under the bus?
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Wednesday, 20 November 2019 14:58 (four years ago) link
Who knows what will come of this, but Sondland seems to really understand the concept of having "fuck you" money.
― Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 20 November 2019 14:59 (four years ago) link
ha from wiki right now.
Gordon David Sondland (born July 16, 1957)[1][2] is the United States Ambassador to the European Union.[3] He is also the founder and former chairman of Provenance Hotels and co-founder of the merchant bank Aspen Capital. He was a major donor to Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, and testified to Congress in the Trump–Ukraine scandal. On 20th November 2019, he metaphorically threw Donald Trump and Rudolph Giuliani- the Russian puppets- under the bus, set it on fire and lobbed a grenade inside for good measure.

I can’t wait to find out how Sondland is now a deep state lying secret Democrat

I would love to send Ambassador Sondland, a really good man and great American, to testify, but unfortunately he would be testifying before a totally compromised kangaroo court, where Republican’s rights have been taken away, and true facts are not allowed out for the public....— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 8, 2019
....to see. Importantly, Ambassador Sondland’s tweet, which few report, stated, “I believe you are incorrect about President Trump’s intentions. The President has been crystal clear: no quid pro quo’s of any kind.” That says it ALL!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 8, 2019

what a hapless rich doof. question is why didn't he say all this in the closed door testimony
― akm, Wednesday, 20 November 2019 15:15 (four years ago) link
He thought he could get away with lying
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Wednesday, 20 November 2019 15:21 (four years ago) link
Easy -- probably figured there was a 'let's all cough and not say anything' approach. But after he got specifically named too many times, even his initial 'revision' wasn't enough; the multiple Kiev cafe conversation confirmations had his number in the end. Better to do this now and be done with it.

I assume "John Dean moment" is trending on places where that happens.

sondland, re: "zelensky loves your ass"
"that's how [Trump] and i communicate - a lot of four letter words"
also calls "he loves your ass" "trumpspeak"

The best thing about all of this is Sondland's cheery demeanor.

is jim jordan going to refer to Sondland as the "star witness", now? he may feel bad about blowing that on the very first witness
