Fox Host Challenges Conway Claim That ‘Whole World’ Knows What Happened On Ukraine Call

White House counselor Kellyanne Conway received mild pushback from a Fox News host on Thursday morning when she claimed the “whole world” knows exactly what was said during President Trump’s call with the president of Ukraine.


This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://talkingpointsmemo.com/?p=1259202

The whole world now knows that the Orange Impeachiness committed unlawful SOLICITATION (not once but twice that we know of) ‘Perfect’ Quid Pro Quo…omitted crucial words in the transcript he released (just like what “I am not a crook did during Watergate) intimidated witnesses, obstructed Congress, misappropriated Congressionally approved funds…and most egregious of all, facilitated the genocide of our ally, which when summed up in context, Ukrainegate & Turkeygate seems to all lead to Putin’s advantage!

You know what, Conway? The whole world is holding its breath to see whether America is going to be ruled by a fucking strong man or are we, collectively, going to go forward as a republic governed by law. That’s what the whole world is watching.

Conway is advancing the beetlejuice theory of quid pro quo. The only way Trump could possibly be guilty of any thing wrong on the “perfect call” would be if he said “quid pro quo” three times. That would allow the conclusion that he was strong arming Ukraine. Short of that there is nothing to see in the transcript. If you believe that I need to ask you “a favor though.”

I wish the media would not use “quid pro quo”. Call it what it is: extortion, blackmail, shake down - because most of the trumpers don’t know what quid pro quo means anyway!

so the whole world is wrong in your eyes and your little group of criminals is just absolutely perfect in the criminal department.
I got it now, phew,
I was beginning to wonder if KAC was ever going to get off the oval office couch and straighten us out…

An angry Hank the Trumphole said in my hearing that Donnie wasn’t getting due process in the impeachment inquiry. To my amazement, a woman who had never said anything before spoke up into the silence, “Impeachment 's in the Constitution, Hank. It IS due process. Quit the whining. I’m trying to get some work done.”

As Michael Cohen noted, Trump speaks in code, so as to avoid direct blame. Unfortunately for him, his code in the phone call was pretty obvious, and we can all decipher it. (He should have tried pig-Latin: idqukay opray uoqkay.)

if a sane world, someone at Fox would have agreed with Conway about the phone call, then reminded her that this wasn’t just about one call.

If the world were sane, Fox News would not exist.

KAC, tell us. Were the names Hunter Biden or Joe Biden ever mentioned in the “perfect” phone call with Zelensky? The transcript doesn’t.

I know what you’re saying, but the implication that Trump is either “strong” or a “man” is a gross mischaracterization. His Orangeness is the great pretender, adrift in a world of his own.

No implication that trump is either strong or a man. The implication is that he wants to rule AS (if) a strong man.
