GOP Sen. Ron Johnson: Whistleblower 'Weakened' U.S.-Ukraine Relationship

[MartyTheGreek]

14. BS Trump weakened US and World Relationships With this Illegal Act...

...at a time when our ally was and still is in a shooting war. The military aid was held up to create a false narrative to hurt the US president's political opponent before a reelection campaign of his own. The military aid had no strings or riders attached, and was to be provided as approved and not conditional upon the receiving country to do anything outside the agreement.

In the process, Trump strengthened our enemy and hurt our ally and dishonored the words and previous agreement. This harm to our Country creates future doubt from our allies and other nations in need for security dealings with the United States. They may fear that to deal with the U.S. in the future for security or arms, the receiving country may have to conduct a secret deal and fabricate stories against political opponents or for other political illegal acts. Hence, we have lost trust in our allies! That trust has to be rebuilt, but Trump has got to go first!
