Here’s a look at what the rough transcript of President Trump's call with the new Ukrainian leader tells us — and what it doesn’t.

Here’s a look at what the partial transcript tells us — and what it doesn’t.What We Know: Trump told the Ukrainian president, “If you can look into it ... it sounds horrible to me,” referring to unsubstantiated allegations that Biden sought to interfere with a Ukrainian prosecutor’s investigation of his son Hunter, who had been hired by a gas company in that country.

Trump also confirmed that he ordered his staff to freeze nearly $400 million in aid to Ukraine a few days before the call.What We Don’t Know: The rough transcript is not a full account of what was said on the call between Trump and Zelenskiy — meaning more details might yet emerge. Congress has also not seen the full whistleblower’s complaint, which is believed to be based on more than just the call.

In the meantime, the impeachment probe focuses partly on whether Trump abused his presidential powers and sought help from a foreign government to undermine Biden and help his own reelection effort. Whether Trump’s comments in the partial transcript rise to that will ultimately be up to the Democrat-controlled House, which can eventually vote to move forward with impeachment proceedings.

Still at it, fake news MSM?

Meh Corruption needs to be investigated, and the circumstances around Bidens son and the discharge of the prosecutor deserve another look.

Seems kinda mild.

_Politics AP misses the story, again. Consider following the sweetheart Hunter Biden deals - - I mean, just this once.

AP: 'unsubstantiated allegations that Biden sought to interfere with a Ukrainian prosecutor’s investigation of his son Hunter.' This is a lie based on Biden's own words. AP destroys its own credibility.

No thanks we don’t need your twisted agenda, we can read.

It’s not a transcript. It is a notetaker’s notes.

So ironic, what this alleges is just what Obama did to Trump in 2016 to get Hillary elected. Except Obama used his own DOJ and FBI.

What You know is that there's nothing here to match the hype. What you don't know is what else you can do to try to take down Trump.

You people have so much hate at this point that if Trump dyed his hair you would call for impeachment....Democrats are in panic mode because Trumps investigation is getting closer and closer to exposing Democrat almighty 'Obama'.

A memo is not a transcript.

Well, this was a waste of a click.

NO QUID PRO QUO ! No promise of money, aide, arms in exchange of information ! No request for investigation ... Democrates and their Media … Pschiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit !

etuckerAP I don't consider myself a wordsmith, but recognize when an attempt to hoodwink is happening, i.e. calling a 'memorandum' a 'transcript'. Please.

Ok thanks .....

Yeah...well the top of the document CLEARLY says “MEMORANDUM...”, so why are y’all calling it a “rough transcript”.

that’s it...?

Rough?

“If you can look into it ... it sounds horrible to me,” referring to unsubstantiated allegations that Biden sought to interfere with a Ukrainian prosecutor’s investigation of his son Unsubstantiated? More political activism?

I trust this journalist more than yours.

What this looks like to the American people, who are not deluded with Trump derangement syndrome, is that we've got yet another witch hunt, to add to Democrat's pile of witch hunts, that will amount to nothing, and will only help this president with his assured re-election

It’s not a transcript.

What’s a rough transcript? Seems like kind of an oxymoron.

Lol rough transcript 🙄
