In his opening statement, Holmes said he overheard Mr. Trump ask a top diplomat about the status of "investigations" into his political rivals on July 26 — one day after his now-infamous July 25 call with the president of Ukraine.

The existence of this July 26 call was revealed last week by William Taylor, the top U.S. diplomat in Ukraine who testified in public on Tuesday. Holmes, who is Taylor's aide, corroborated Taylor's account. It provides further support for the accusation that Mr. Trump committed a politically charged quid pro quo and withheld U.S. aid from Ukraine to pressure the foreign country to launch investigations that could help his reelection campaign.

"I've never seen anything like this, someone calling the president from a mobile phone at a restaurant, and then having a conversation of this level of candor, colorful language. There's just so much about the call that was so remarkable that I remember it vividly," Holmes testified on Capitol Hill behind closed doors last week.

So actually he DID get removed from office, it was just he made the choice proactively to get out while the gettin' was good so he could stay one step ahead of the law.

OMG, nobody knew that!

Are you telling me that calling the president of Ukraine and bringing up dumb stuff and then withholding aid for a few weeks is the WORST action by an American president ever? Or tied with Nixon? Again, its horrible behavior but not worth the death penalty.

Huh? Removal from office is not the death penalty.

And the argument that "this is not the worst action by an American president ever" is truly illogical. Try using that as a defense next time you get pulled over for speeding. "Well officer, I was not the worst speeder. Or hey, someone else out here is probably under the influence so let me go." WTF? And they let you vote?

Lol. How dumb are you? Millions of drivers have speeding tickets. In the history of our country, not one president has been removed from office.

Guessing you are dumber, since you can’t grasp analogies?
