Acting Ambassador to Ukraine Bill Taylor delivered some of the most damning testimony against President Trump yet. Washington Examiner Senior Political Correspondent David Drucker, Reuters White House Correspondent Jeff Mason, former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner, and Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress Michael Fuchs join Stephanie Ruhle to break down what we know about the impeachment inquiry so far and what seems to be the president’s argument that if you don’t use the words “quid pro quo,” then it doesn’t count. Aired on 10/23/19.

Top Diplomat Says Ukraine Aid Tied To Biden Probe | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC
Can we just get this over with before this lunatic drops a nuke
@The Crypto_Sloth Francis James – And *’Snowflake #45’* had *yet another ‘twittyfeed tantrum’* today, *whining* about how ‘unfair’ *everyone’s* been *to* him. 🍼👶🍼
Poor put-upon prezzy… 😏
POTUS cannot activate nukes alone. THANK GOODNESS. I believe the other person required is the Sec of Defense.
philip popenik Are you admitting Trump works for Russia? As its the Russians that did that.
With this clown (who wanted to “nuke” hurricanes) you always have that fear.
what a great moment to be republican…climate change isn’t real nor science, news,media, truth in general, are they a sect?
Their values are supposedly under attack and they will forgive the Devil himself if it gives their religion a leg up.
Out Smoked True that. They are willfully ignorant, they will believe anything so long as it’s scape goats and blames everybody else for their own failures.
The Russians are trying to meddle in our Democracy people!!! Stand up!!
I highly doubt Putin went out of his way. I think Trump asked him. They were friends before and we all know about the Moscow deal. No way did Puting ask Trump to put a hotel in Russia. Then he is caught doing favors for Russian diplomats and nationals who spend money at the Trump Hotel. Think about it. He doesn’t have to be smart to be a criminal mastermind.
Trying?! They have already done it! Whose sitting in the oval office?! These sonab*tches rather be called Russians than Americans. It wouldn’t surprise me that a group of them are defecting.
@Jeffrey Meade Bruh, it is real.
STILL trying and this clown is welcoming it
Time to flush the traitor in chief.
😄👍💩🍄
Traitor & Thief
V….
Mango Mussolini knows he’s going down.
Hence the Rethug’s storming stunt today.🌼
That deputy must have pretty damaging testimony.
We gotta pay close attention to what she reveals…..
there’s a reason they chose today to storm the session.🌼
This is so like a game to these Republicans. In fact, their tactics are EXACTLY the same as a game.
In a last ditched effort to distract the American public from what is being uncovered and getting to their “boss”, Republicans are now trying to disrupt the inquiry…just like you would see the closer you get to a boss in any game.
The difference is, THIS IS NOT A GAME! America is done with this garbage of an administration. Impeachment is the only way to rid ourselves of this disaster.
@Jukka Ollikainen they look bad, no matter which way they turn. they look bad.
storming the meeting doesn’t change what Dumb Donald did and they must realize that.
who wants Trump as President??? less than 30% of Ameircans .
Fred – If rump is not impeached – there will be anarchy. People will start breaking the law, some rumpo supporters already started. California is at risk for bear pepper spraying and fire starters.
Yes my friend a very deadly game, and many more lost live to come because of trump desperation and GREED as well as his STUPIDITY!!!! Renegade 101st.
@DK Workwise Dude, wildfire terrorism is a real threat. People have been caught planning it and doing it.
@Mck2019 Yes. It is utterly impossible to understand why the 70% of Americans allow this stooge show of very big buttons just go on. After two years of being a total laughing stock America is now turning into a active threat to the global security. There is not any respect left but now the time is running out too.
Stay safe but take care.
Big thanks to Mulvaney for spilling the beans! It’s a lot easier to fight when the truth falls out of the bad guy’s mouth!
Fred A 😅🤣🤣😂You Are Soooo Right‼️
Yep he walked in there cocky thinking he was going to normalize criminals commiting crimes, looking for one. That’s rich.
A confession has no value unless someone is prepared to prosecute it.
Do we really need more?
Nope!
Stop calling it a quid pro quo and start calling it what it is: Bribery or at least extortion.
Definitely extortion
Yup, extortion for sure. Textbook.
Remember when he cancelled his visit to Denmark, because he wasn’t allowed to buy Greenland? He acts like it has to cost something very dear to meet him. How is it even possible to think so high of yourself 🤯
Everything Trump does has a monetary value, that,s how he works. He thinks that he can run the US the way he runs his real estate businesses, remember he has lied about almost every aspect of his life and business.
peter müller Yes, it is very similar to his attempt to hold America hostage by shutting down the government until he got his ego border wall.
Republican Congress members: “Our job is not to listen to anything that could be construed as facts. It is to defend Trump at all costs by disparaging the witness first and foremost thus to taint their testimony so we don’t have to consider it as truth. “
Lawless lying lowlifes. The republicons are a brainwashed delusional cult.
The dumbest stable genius in the history of humanity. Don Trump.
Lucky Kusa….u got it
it’s kakistocracy , stupid elected one of their own
Lucky Kusa GOOD ☝️.!!!
I always thought that Secretariat was the best STABLE genius of all time
If A.G. Barr “investigated” the whistleblower’s complaint in the first place none of this would have come to light.
He’s the orange cooks right hand man and defender and chief
You mean like Epstein
“Quid pro quo” literally means trading something for something.
We should really call it what it is :
Extortion and bribery !
Yes. Exactly.
Mueller should have really made a case for Bribery and Aiding&Abetting Russian interference by making his foreign policy a subject of Bribery
I don’t plan to vote for Republicans ever again.
Russia and Ukraine “were” at war? Don’t you mean “Are” at war.
When is he holding his “I dinduit” Rally?
You mean his next
Pence trying to throw shade on Taylor, good luck with that.
“We’ve not had any conversation on that”. – Mitch McConnell
“I don’t recall” confirms it all!
How do people still defend Trump?
Shonda, It seemed that rump main support right now is white supremacist. Strange because Rump is complete opposite of.
A guy that calls his wife mommy, tries to cast shade on a highly respected Patriotic Viet Nam Veteran / Diplomat, laughable.
“Murder murder murder murder!”
