This isn't the first time Trump's minions refused to accept the reality of what happened on a phone call. https://www.politico.com/story/2019/09/25/trump-ukraine-phone-call-transcript-text-pdf-1510770
He/she is right that Trump didn’t utter those exact words. What I find interesting is some attorneys after repeatedly listening to the call bring up Trump’s mental state as in he might actually believe what he’s saying therefore doesn’t have the competency to be charged. Unfortunately, this likely applies to his supporters. We’ve got a full blown mental health crisis on our hands.
