Purpura was excellent, and as you indicated, essentially in 1 hour, he completely destroyed the Democrat's case. It was an epic take down.
Here's what Purpura left out:
Purpura did not include the testimony of Laura Cooper, the Pentagon official who stated emails her office received from Ukrainians about the aid on the same day as Trump's phone call with the Ukrainian President.
Nor did he mention documents that show Ukrainians concerned about the holdup in early August, reported on by The New York Times. Or the fact that the GAO determined Trump's holdup of aid to the Ukraine was illegal.
But considering Greg and Rich show the same level of attentiveness to the Democrat's presentation as did those Republican senators that either were playing crossword puzzles or away from their desks, it's not surprising that whatever Trump's lawyer said today was taken as an "epic takedown." Pardon me while I puke..,.
