President Trump slammed the Democrat led impeachment inquiry and declared it ‘over’ in a fiery statement to reporters.
The President’s remarks came after Ambassador Sondland gave his testimony before congress.
As The Hill reports:
President Trump on Wednesday said that he didn’t know U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland “very well” and that Sondland’s ongoing testimony Wednesday means that the House impeachment inquiry should be “over.”
Reading from a packet of notes, Trump reenacted a conversation he had with Sondland that was described in testimony, with the president saying he wanted “nothing” from Ukraine in exchange for investigations.
Ambassador Sondland just testified President Trump wanted NOTHING from Ukraine, NO quid pro quo. @realDonaldTrump is right about the Democrats’ impeachment sham, “it’s all over!” pic.twitter.com/DZPs2YNFdK

“That means it’s all over. What do you want from Ukraine, he asks me, screaming. What do you want from Ukraine? I keep seeing all these ideas and theories,” Trump told reporters before departing the White House for a trip to Austin, Texas, providing his account of Sondland’s part of the conversation.
“Here is my response that he just gave. Ready? You have the cameras rolling? I want nothing. That’s what I want from Ukraine,” Trump continued. “I want nothing — I said it twice.”
