Trump's ‘transcript’ of Ukraine call unlikely to be verbatimWASHINGTON (Reuters) - Details from a phone call made by Donald Trump that has led the U.S. House of Representatives to launch a formal impeachment inquiry against the president isn’t likely to come from a recording or be verbatim, former White House and national security officials say. “Typically a note-taker will write notes about what the principal says in a fashion that does not embarrass their principal,” said Farkas. A former White House senior official concurred there was unlikely to be a recording. www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-whistleblower-transcript/trumps-transcript-of-ukraine-call-unlikely-to-be-verbatim-idUSKBN1W935S It says it right on the memo:

We also know, based on Trump's meetings with Putin, he has absolute authority over what is and is not included for the record in those notes. Reasonably, he could have seized and/or ordered certain parts be removed before it was recorded.

The memo reads like Trump transcribed both sides himself.

I'm also a little surprised that he was on Twitter this morning talking about how the Democrats would be apologizing. Not trying to be snarky: What about this idiot's use of twitter makes this surprising? His "handlers" are non existent and I wouldn't be surprised if he goes on a damning rant via social media that gets deleted after it's screenshotted 50 millino times. He normally has wiggle room though. If anything I guess he didn't think they'd release the real thing?

The whistleblower complaint, as per the Wall Street Journal (i.e. the most conservative paper in the country), said Trump mentioned Biden at least eight times. He only mentioned him twice in this transcript. This is a farce.

I'm surprised the ukranian president didnt marvel at the size of Donald trumps huge, ginormous penis.
Also I love how trump is not 100% right but 1000% right. This dude definitely wrote this.

I know its a nitpick, but why is there someone working in the white house writing these transcripts that doesn't know the difference between they're and their? See the end of page 4
You know if you think about it, they're probably spelling it exactly as they should be given that it's a transcript

people on breitbart are calling the 'transcript' a "nothing burger" which, can I say, is the STUPIDEST fucking term.

Just like to see how they themselves spin bigger news stories. And the patterns they tend to follow and scapegoats/reasoning they use.

Trump could kidnap every child from Republican Senators and they still would not convict him.
