    Well, according to Taylor his reference was what he heard from Volker and Sondland. Plus what he heard from the NY Times.

    The article at QZ does provide further links if you wish. All of which are much more persuasive than placing words in bold or underlining them.

    Well, yes.

    Most likely Adam Schiff gave him his talking points and gave him his "lines" that he needed for this "production".

    Based on your lack of simple knowledge of terms used often throughout the Constitution, thanks for pointing me in the direction of avoiding where you got your lack of knowledge.

    Conjecture.....there is no QPQ. So there is no abuse of Power. Case dismissed.

    It is a really simple distinction, try and follow me here.

    Models that attempt to predict the outcome of a future event are not the same as polls which attempt to take a snapshot of the opinions of the American people. It is true that the former relies on the later, but they are not the same.

    I showed you a chart that is graphing the current and previous polling data on support for impeachment. That is not the same as a model that attempts to predict the outcome or likelihood of an impeachment proceeding.

    The funny thing is these goofballs haven't yet come to the conclusion that all US aid to foreign countries comes with multiple "quid pro quo's".

    They're brilliant. They really are.

    You have repeatedly demonstrated that you are not worthy of any response.

    There are multiple sworn statements and documents which demonstrate that a QPQ did take place. Sondland, in fact, just corrected his sworn testimony to reflect that he personally delivered that QPQ.

    Oh look. Trying to make it look complicated.

    How do they come up with election probabilities? Polling.

    How did they come up with impeachment probabilities? Polling.

    You guys should stick to creating genders and global warming. No one can disprove your imaginations.

    You still think the graph I linked is a measurement of impeachment probability?

    I told you, it's fake news, that is not what happened at all. Your entire characterization of the phone call is incorrect.

    Why are you deflecting away from Joe Biden? Why don't you answer the question?

    No, that was your ridiculous take on the polls to support your measurement of the probability of impeachment, which I then eviscerated.

    Please continue.

    No I didn't repeat myself as the date puts the reality in check. Meaning after Sondland changes up his testimony. Paragraph 4 points that out.

    Again there is no QPQ. Even your Democrats have given up on QPQ. They say they don't need it now. LMAO.

    *******n.

    You respond to someone claiming that there was no QPQ by arguing that all of it comes with multiple QPQs and act like Democrats are the ones floundering for a case.

    WHAT?! My take on the polls to support my measurement of the probability of impeachment?

    I linked you polls to demonstrate that a majority of Americans support the impeachment inquiry and a plurality want Trump removed right now. That's it. Full stop.

    Now, if you want to see an actual attempt at predicting the likelihood that Trump will be impeached, you can look here:

    Eh, at least I learn from my mistake unlike others who keep displaying their incompetence to the world.

    Of course you're floundering.

    The morons are saying that an announcement of government commitment against corruption is impeachable.

    All foreign aid comes with those requirements, all the time, since we began sending money to other countries.

    If you don't see that now, you might want to put a helmet on.

    Is there a QPQ or not? You literally answered that question yesterday by saying that no QPQ existed. Are you now saying that a QPQ existed?
