Schiff Turns On The Big Ass Fan: "Who had the decision to release the aid? It was Donald J. Trump."

SCHIFF: The answer to the question, who was refusing the meeting with Zelensky ... who was the one standing in the way of that meeting? Who was the one refusing to take that meeting? There's only one answer to that question: And it's Donald J. Trump. 45th president of the U.S.


Left in the minds of all but the cloistered Fox News crowd will be the memory that the central player indicted Trump and every one of his key allies.


Schiff: “This is a seminal moment in this investigation.”

Hell, yes, it is.

Schiff then reads back the crisp, damning takeaways:

Trump gave orders

Others followed them

Giuliani spoke for him

And what he asked for was the quid pro quo

And the Ukrainians knew



And Schiff brings it in for a landing with essentially:

I have said much about Trump over the years but I will say this about him now: He is not the type to be led around by the nose by Rudy Giuliani.

“Who had the decision to release the aid? It was Donald J. Trump.”
