We asked our reporters covering the presidency and the impeachment fight to shed some light on what just happened, and what lies ahead
It was the week when private testimony became public transcripts. And even though many details had leaked beforehand, the release of the damaging impeachment inquiry depositions was brutal for President Donald Trump and his Republican defenders.
Another takeaway from this week is that the depositions so far do not appear to be swaying Senate Republicans, who will decide Trump’s fate in an impeachment trial. Many told us they had not read the depositions and when asked about Sondland’s testimony, several said the White House’s release of its summary of Trump’s July 25 call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was enough for them.
They also have to contend with President Trump’s huge megaphone — that prolific Twitter feed — as he narrates his own version of the impeachment proceedings.Nancy makes a good point that the public impeachment will hurt a key Republican talking point. It will be interesting to see how Senate Democrats handle the latest impeachment revelations.
