.MaddowBlog: White House release of April call summary backfires on Pres. Trump.
On Friday morning, just as former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch’s public hearing, the White House tried to change the conversation a bit. Officials released a call summary Donald Trump had with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in April – three months before the Republican’s controversial “I would like you to do us a favor, though” conversation.
But it wasn’t long before observers started taking note of what the call summary didn’t say. As Slate noted: Nowhere in the summary that the White House released on Friday does Trump bring up corruption, sovereignty, territorial integrity, democratic reforms, or prosperity.
