          What you are replying to is not gaslighting. Your replys are nearly always abusive and accusatory, with only rarely at most a sentence or two addressing anything other than your personal disdain for me.

            • "Gaslighting" is one of the most blatantly misused terms on the Internet, especially Reddit. It gets trotted out anytime anybody disagrees with anybody and at this point in time is nearly meaningless despite its very serious word origin. I saw one debate on there recently over whether the British "maths" or American "math" is correct and one person immediately accused the other person of gaslighting them for disagreeing. "Gaslighting" and "narcissism" both, actually.

Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

                    That is one of your more absurd attempts at analogy mm. Trump put a hold on aid to the ukraine did he not? So clearly zelenski needs to please Trump or he doesnt get the aid- discounting if such a hold was even legal. That means zekensky was beholden to Trump over the period in question.. Your denial is just contrary words. They have no reality behind them.

Sondland openly admitted that he was acting on presumption, and that when he asked the President directly was told very curtly that there was to be no quid pro quo. He is, to my knowledge, the only person on record who spoke directly with Trump, and Trump's words as quoted by Sondland undermine the entire case for impeachment.
                      The implication is that Trump was behind Sonderlands actions. Trump sent him to Ukraine. Trump withheld the aid. Sonderland was in daily communication with Trump and Trump is the one who benefits from it.

                      That’s the word on the street.

                        Something which nobody in the Ukrainian government was aware of, which Trump never referenced in his phone call with Zelensky, and which was eventually released without Ukraine ever announcing or even agreeing to undertake any investigations.

                        So, yeah...

                          It doesn't matter what you think the "implications" might be when Sondland testified under oath that he was never given any specific direction from the President, that he was acting on his own presumption, and that when he questioned the President directly was told with what he described as crystal clarity that there was to be no quid pro quo.

                            I'll just chalk it up to one of your less charitable moments, and let it go.
                            The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                              That simply isnt true mm. They were aware of the hold and asked about it. Where do you get off saying they were not aware of the hold? That they knew was reported from multiple sources.

                              Just today is a report in the NYT they knew as early as July

                                If they knew then it was because they figured it out on their own and not because Trump instructed anybody to tell them. Multiple witnesses testified that they were never told that release of the aid was tied to the investigations, and Sondland testified that Trump told him explicitly that he didn't want any reciprocation from Ukraine.
