Davis, Elise Viebeck and Josh Dawsey November 27, 2019 at 8:00 p.m. EST President Trump was cranky when they spoke on the phone in September, Ambassador Gordon Sondland told members of Congress, but his words were clear: Trump wanted no quid pro quo with Ukraine. “This is Ambassador Sondland speaking to me,” Trump said outside the White House last week, looking down to read notes he’d taken of Sondland’s testimony. “Here’s my response that he just gave: ‘I want nothing. I want nothing. I want no quid pro quo.’ ” Sondland’s recollection of a phone conversation that he said took place on Sept. 9 has emerged as a centerpiece of Trump’s defense as House Democrats argue in an impeachment inquiry that he abused his office to pressure Ukraine to investigate Democrats. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/witness-testimony-and-records-raise-questions-about-account-of-trumps-no-quid-pro-quo-call/2019/11/27/42… 1/18 1/3/2020 Witness testimony and records raise questions about account of Trump’s ‘no quid pro quo’ call - The Washington Post AD However, no other witness testimony or documents have emerged that corroborate Sondland’s description of a call that day.
