Congressman Gerry Connolly joins Hallie Jackson to talk the latest revelations in the House's impeachment inquiry. After Trump aide Gordon Sondland revised his testimony to reflect the presence of a quid pro quo, Connolly concludes that what the President did was "an abuse of power" and "illegal.
Yes, extortion is more precise.
Agreed.
Cool. Now do Biden.
PrezTrump didn't do anything wrong, we've all read the transcript. Unlike JoeBiden on video threatening he'd call Obama to withhold funds if prosecutor investigating Burisma wasn't fired. Now theirs your extortion.
My thoughts exactly- name the crime rather than describe it.
Read the transcript. This is false
Yes I like that word better. Thank you.
Wrong.
Coming out of the mouth of a demon it doesn't surprise me
Yes Trump was exonerated and the president of the Ukraine is the only opinion that matters. If he says no quid pro quo then there is no quid pro quo and of subject matter. It is now a witchhunt out of control.
It's a shakedown. The president ran an extortion racket. Legal definition: 'Selling a solution to a problem that wouldn't exist without the racket.' Until we see a public announcement of 'the deliverable,' it's doubtful you'll get a meeting or the military aid Congress approved.
ExtortionistTrump
Know why no one's specifying the crime or crimes supposedly committed in this manner? Because calling whatever he thinks happened extortion makes him look like a boob. Why not say Trump murdered Ukrainian justice or raped foreign aid conventions?
☝🏾excuse me Rep Connelly, not to be picky, but he’s also guilty of extortion, witness tampering and intimidation, government Fraud Waste And Abuse.
Extortion baaaaa did trump say fire the prosecutor investigating my son or no money?
Follow the missiles
Lots of talk. This is the Dems campaign strategy because they have absolutely nothing else.
😂😂😂😂😂😂deluded lying desperate TDS Democrats
Exactly! Why do Dems always use soft language towards a mob boss in charge?
I say the term should be 'bribery'. It is clearly an impeachable offense. And, fits like a glove. (Not the one used in OJ's trial).
If it walks like a duck.....🦆
Of course he did
It was a stone-cold extortion.
THANK YOU RepConnolly for just saying it in plain English. And again, asking a foreign nation to intervene.
You are SO wrong. The fraud & extortion was done by the Biden's No issues with POTUS action
Truth.....where is the shame
Connolly are you talking about BIDEN? And the Obama Administration?
ExtorionistTrump
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha 'Quid pro quo isn't working guys, what word can we use to up the ante?'
The term you’re looking for is “wrap-up smear”, the tactic Schiff is using for his farcical “inquiry”.
So how many Ukrainians died while Obama refused to give/sell them any weapons for 3 years while they were under attack from the Russians? Trump is the one who started giving/selling Ukraine the weapons they needed to fight off the Russians! Why doesn't MSNBC ever talk about this?

Actually, the President performed his duty to this country by engaging the President of Ukraine in an effort to combat corruption as alleged against two American citizens. The problem would have occurred if he had just overlooked it like the last administration. We have a treaty.
