re: #257 Yeah Sure WhatEVs

This is significant. To reiterate, the fact that Trump and Sondland had an open line so Trump could get briefed every step of the way completely undercuts the GOP nonsense that the extortion piece of the plot was suddenly freelanced by Sondland.

This was Trump’s baby from the get-go. He is ready to ignore almost every other aspect of governing except strong-arming people to do what he wants.
