'The White House is very wary of this testimony,' jonkarl tells TomLlamasABC ahead of EU Ambassador Gordon Sondland's testimony. 'All along, officials have been telling me he is the wild card.'
If there's one witness in the House impeachment inquiry who could speak to exactly what President Donald Trump wanted in Ukraine, it would be Gordon Sondland and he's testifying in public for the first time on Wednesday.
"While sources close to Sondland wouldn’t describe him as “flipping” on President Trump, they say Sondland is “certainly not” going to defend the president during his testimony," Faulders says. On May 14, Sondland got a shout-out from the president at an event in Louisiana when Trump said he was doing a “great job.” In October, the president called Sondland “highly respected” and “a really good man and great American.”
"Ambassador Sondland agreed that the president did not ‘give a s—t about Ukraine" but rather the"big stuff," testified David Holmes behind closed doors. Homes is the State Department employee who said he could hear Trump over the phone talking to Sondland and later asked the ambassador what Trump wants with Ukraine.
"He bragged that he could call the President whenever he wanted," Morrison testified of Sondland, according to the transcript.
