Melber On Gordon Sondland: 'Up Until Today, He Was Always Trump' | MSNBC
First..lol… And bets on how long he lasts.. I give it u til sundown Thursday..latest
He paid Trump back for Jeb Bush lol
Trumps sham has to come to an end….we have to move on.
The sham is this clip from cnbc and Ari Melber.
This is definitely not correct.
Watch this clip and then you will see what Sondland really said regarding Trump and QUID PRO QUO.
https://youtu.be/EnEWYilDgcg
It only takes a few minutes and you will clearly see this is
bull s#!t.
Repubs: “Its all second hand conversations by Never Trumpers cooked up by the Dems!!!”
Gordy Sondland: “Yea I spoke directly with Trump and Yea I gave him a cool mil AFTER he got elected and Yea it was a quid pro quo.”
Me: “BOOM!! GOT EM!!” while dancing around the coffee table.
😊😊😊😊🍿🎉🍾🥂💙
It was another flop
Not so cute- let’s say it was a quid pro quo, you can’t compare asking a foreign country about the bidens in order to help his 16 campaign, to what the democrats have gotten away with in the recent past- I can name a roster of fraud and soundless decisions that have hurt america far more worse than what trump is accused of, would you like to hear them?
Before you trip and hit your knee on the coffee table watch this clip (it’s not long at all) and you will see that this msnbc clip and Ari Melber are full of S#!T.
You know how bad it was today? Search Fox News on YouTube, they haven’t posted any of their evening shows today.
😄

Good catch! 😂
They probably ran out of distraction shows with these successive blows to their president muppet.
Fox’s big headline today: “Fox got more viewers for the impeachment hearing than any other network”. Well. Good for you, Fox. Maybe some of your viewers will get a bit of education.
well said, ty everyone.
Trump said he doesn’t really know about Gordon Sondland but he took a million dollar from him.
@Roger Allan extortion? maybe? no laddy- its your flesh your kin of blood who have committed high treason against their higher authority
@Roger Allan did anything happen to bill and hillary yes or no? even a freagin clown is tired of watching all this tax payer inquire BS, when democrats are more corrupted than trump- if you want to put it on a scale accordingly
First he knew him to be great guy, then he didn’t know him, then he knew him again when he thought his testimony “exonerated” him.
Trump don’t Discriminate, He’s a Equal Opportunity, Criminal Employer ! 💼💰
Name one “criminal” thing he’s done.
Soliciting foreign help for the election multiple times and publicly. Defrauding Trump University students. Misusing his charity. Witness tampering. Witness intimidation. Withholding Congress approved foreign aid appropriation to extort foreign government. Diverting military budget for his supposed wall. Misappropriating campaign finances to pay off sexual partners. Disregarding Emoluments clause by accepting foreign payments for his businesses.
@K G YOU NAME THE 27 INVESTIGATION PENDING, AGAINST HIM AS WE TALK, STOP TRYING TO BE BLIND, AND PLAYING DUMB AND, IF YOU DON’T KNOW GO RESEARCH IT, FOR YOURSELF AND STOP BEING LAZY, IT’S THERE FOR THE WORLD TO SEE, AND JUST WATCH THE INVESTIGATION ! 🤔👍🏻
@ajipon PLEASE EDUCATE THEM, BECAUSE I’M TIRED OF THEM, ASKING ME THAT SAME DUMB QUESTION, OVER AND OVER ! 🤔👍🏻✌
He didn’t just drop a dime on Trump… he dropped a deuce.
and a Bennie.
…and Sondland laid a huge egg that hatched into a giant NothingBurger. 🙂
@Daemon Nine Really? He convincingly testified that all the democrats claims were true and implicated half a dozen others in the bribery attempt. That’s a pretty smelly egg on a fairly substantial burger.
@Lagilagi Bodoh it’s ok. Daemon 9 is here to screw honest thinking up. Pay no attention to the trolls.
Employed by Trump? who pays his salary?
Sounds more like 5¢ and nickel to me.
trump always expects his people to jump on a grenade for him.
today sondland made sure trump was still holding it.
@Roger Allan im repeating myself for the last time, i really don’t care what trump did in his teens or in the nighties it’s now- he’s setting the pathway for other Republican presidents in the future to finally bring the national deficit to a balance out-46 percent of the population according to a recent poll disapprove of trumps impeachment- while only43% percent do approve, people are waking up- Trump is not going to be impeached and he will be the president to be in 2020
The rest of the points went to sideliners who said they were not sure about impeachment upon a president
@here’s clowny he is 100% going to be impeached, which is basically indicted.. removed from office, doubtful because the goo is protecting him..
Again, Clinton WAS impeached not removed as Trump will likely be..
Know politics before you try to debate,otherwise you look as clueless as the dotard in Chief
@Roger Allan I wouldn’t be to sure or even confident about that nowadays- and it’s because they know their wasting and sucking up on the precious tax dollors, on a purly partisan motive drama base against this president- plus nobody ever gets impeached in the first place, you’ll see- and by the way bill Clinton was not impeached or removed from office- he was accused or alleged but Clinton was never impeached out of office he might of had to pay a court memorandum just like they did with trump recently- hillary sold russia uranium and got rich nobody ever touched her you! you know public inquiries are a scam
Trump: “Gordon? Gordon Who? I never met the guy. He was nothing to me. He was only a small bit player. Everybody says so…”
How many times have we heard this ?
That is not the way it went. Watch the hearing
How did it go?
@Annie SEE FOR YOURSELF WHAT REALLY WENT ON.
Rep. from Ohio Michael Turner questions Sondland.
https://youtu.be/EnEWYilDgcg
@Annie I’m curious of your perception/opinion of what Sondlands testimonie revealed about Trumps guilt OR innocence regarding “QUID PRO QUO”
It was his OPINION once again, Trump in fact said, “I want no quid pro quo”. Amazing how we can all see the same testimony but take completely different things from it.
Pres. Trump said “I want no quid pro quo” **after** the whistleblower “quid pro quo” complaint was made public. Prior to that, Pres. Trump, didn’t know that his “Art of the Deal” is “quid pro quo.” When folks say that Trump is “transactional,” it means that “quid pro quo” is his nature so that his saying “I want no quid pro quo” is a lie.
Just like Trump said ” NO COLLUSION NO OBSTRUCTION!” But we know that’s a lie to this day because he’s still COLLUDING with Russia.
Well…
One question remains … if he will be still in the employment of the US government by the time he lands, is still …up in the air…😝
The whole lot of them should be lined up against the wall for failing to implement national security measures to standardize voting machines and protect our election process
REPUBLIKKKANS , TRAITORS TO AMERICA PARTY BF COUNTRY ….. FDT
Sondland told the truth. Thank you God!
I hope his third testimony doesn’t clear him of perjury, it didn’t clear Michael Cohen when he revised his.
