Amid mounting evidence that the scandal threatening Trump's presidency goes far beyond a single call to Ukraine's President, Trump is focusing in on a narrow set of issues as he builds his defense
Washington President Donald Trump can't stop talking about his"perfect" call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and disparaging the whistleblower whose complaint sparked the House impeachment inquiry.
That investigation has revealed a months-long effort to pressure Ukraine to investigate matters that would benefit him politically.

Since the vote, people are just now taking this seriously," Bannon said.
