So after reading the text messages that clearly point out everything that was going on in the whole impeachment process
We can see how the republicans who were in the room with Volker yesterday view it:
From the ever trustworthy Jim Jordan
House Republicans on Thursday said closed-door testimony from Kurt Volker, the former U.S. special envoy for Ukraine, does not support allegations against President Trump that Democrats are using to launch an impeachment inquiry.
“He has said nothing that coincides what the Democrats are saying with their whole impeachment narrative,” said Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, the top Republican on the House Oversight Committee and a staunch supporter of Trump.
Jordan described Volker as “unbelievably knowledgeable about what was going on in Ukraine,” and he added, “Not one thing he has said comports with any of the Democrats’ impeachment narrative. Not one thing.”
I guess that would include texts like:
"Heard from the White House -- assuming President Z convinces trump he will investigate/'get to the bottom of what happened' in 2016, we will nail down date for visit to Washington,"
and
"Are we now saying that security assistance and WH meeting are conditioned on investigations?" Taylor texted Sondland on September 1.
"Call me," Sondland responded.
A week later, Taylor was even more concerned, texting Sondland: "As I said on the phone, I think it's crazy to withhold security assistance for help with a political campaign."
See! Nothing at all that fits with the DemocRATS impeachment fantasy. NOT ONE THING!
