'Take her out': Recording appears to capture Trump talking about firing ambassador

2 hrs ago

A recording reviewed by ABC News appears to capture President Donald Trump telling associates he wanted the then-U.S. ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch fired while speaking at a small gathering that included Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman -- two former business associates of Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani who have since been indicted in New York.

The recording appears to contradict statements by Trump and support the narrative that has been offered by Parnas during broadcast interviews in recent days. Sources familiar with the recording said the recording was made during an intimate April 30, 2018, dinner at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C.

Ambassadors serve at the pleasure of the President.

Your sourse, "MSN" ought to so state.

Oh, yawn, Part 1: The conversation happened over a year before she was canned.

Oh, yawn, Part 2: Ambassadors serve at the pleasure of Presidents. What's slightly remarkable is that Trump held her over rather than firing her in January, or February of 2017.

A MEANINGLESS TAPE RECORDING OF TRUMP

Quote
The latest impeachment related story — a non-story in my view — is about a tape recording in which President Trump (according to reports) instructed associates to fire Marie Yovanovitch, the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine. The recording apparently was made at a dinner party in April 2018 by Igor Fruman, one of Rudy Giuliani’s main Ukraine operatives (along with Lev Parnas).

Yovanovitch wasn’t fired until May 2019. Thus, there is less to this story than meets the eye.

Nor did much meet the eye to begin with. According to reports, Trump demanded that Yovanovitch be fired after he heard she was bad mouthing the president in Ukraine. “Get rid of her” and “take her out” apparently was how he put it.

A president can fire an ambassador for any reason or no reason. If the ambassador is bad mouthing the president, that’s an excellent reason.

To be sure, a wise president will want to confirm reports of the bad mouthing before he acts. In this case, Trump didn’t act at the time he first heard such a report. Yovanovitch was removed more than a year later.

Adding this in, related on Pompeo:

FWIW, this is kind of leftwing prattling here, just adding on in case, we hear something about this:

NPR's Mary Louise Kelly says the following happened after the interview in which she asked some tough questions to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.


https://twitter.com/ddale8/status/1220837170484797445

See, he's heading to Ukraine:   https://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2020-01-24/pompeo-heads-to-ukraine-next-week-as-impeachment-winds-down

I think Pompeo was upset because there was some question about whether he should speak well of Yovanovitch, if not in that interview, in general.
https://www.npr.org/2020/01/24/799244678/pompeo-wont-say-whether-he-owes-yovanovitch-an-apology-i-ve-done-what-s-right
(NPR story), so yeah, this is what this might be about.

I think he probably sees Yovanovitch as the proverbial thorn in the side.

Well, if the NPR reporter, Mary Louise Kelly wants to say this happened, she should have this on tape.
