‘Bombshell’ email Dems claim proves Trump ‘withheld aid’ from Ukraine actually screws their entire narrative
We thought Schumer was smarter than this

(TNS) Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) is not a stupid man, but he’s making a claim regarding a “bombshell” email he says ‘proves’ that President Trump did, in fact, withhold military aid from Ukraine that is, well, stupid.

The email in question came after a July 25 phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, a transcript of which does not contain any threat from the White House to withhold lethal military aid from Ukraine as Democrats claim.

In fact, as U.S. Ambassador to the EU Gordon Sondland would testify during the House’s impeachment inquiry last month, President Trump specifically told him he didn’t want any “quid pro quo” from Ukraine — he wanted “nothing,” in fact.

But okay. Let’s play along.

I believe the phrase in the email, "timely execution of the final policy direction," means the $$ would have been sent to Ukraine no later than the end of that fiscal year (September 30, 2019?). IOW, not only was it a "pause", i.e. temporary, but the pause had a deadline date a little more than 2 months away.
