Kelly Anne Is one dumb b!t@h.
Quote: "I feel comfortable saying that he never mentioned 2020, quid pro quo, holding up aid, Joe Biden, his political rival."
Really? Let's look at the Transcript:
1. Trump, after congratulating Zelensky on his win, very quickly establishes that the United States has been very, very good to Ukraine.
"I will say that we do a lot for Ukraine. We spend a lot of effort and a lot of time. Much more than the European countries are doing and they should be helping you more than they are."
2. He then makes clear that the US does a lot more for Ukraine than Ukraine does for the US.
"I wouldn't say that it's reciprocal necessarily because things are happening that are not good but the United States has been very, very good to Ukraine."
3. Trump directly asks Zelensky to investigate Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.
"There's a lot of talk about Biden's son, that Biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that so whatever you can do with the Attorney General would be great. Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution so if you can look into it ... It sounds horrible to me."
Any -- and I mean any -- reasonable person reading that transcript would draw a simple conclusion: There is an not-even-that-subtle quid pro quo at work here. Trump wants Zelensky to do something -- actually, two somethings since he also wants Ukraine to look into a conspiracy theory about the location of the Democratic National Committee's hacked server -- and in order to light a fire under the Ukrainian president, Trump reminds him of all that the US does for Ukraine.
