Also why doesn't Zelensky come out and say he had no choice. It undercuts every GOP defense and almost guarantees Trump gets cratered by McConnell.

It doesn't guarantee that, and knowing Trump, could get all aid to Ukraine cut off.

Biden has sat immobile on the Iron Throne of America. He is the Master of Malarkey by the will of the gods, and master of a million votes by the might of his inexhaustible calamari.

Yup. Grandstanding, nothing more.

The House GOP's job is that of a rodeo clown: distract and confuse long enough to allow others to escape.

Zelensky is the president of his own country and doesn't want any part of any of this. One of the Democrats went over this in a friendly sort of way with Taylor, letting him agree with all the reasons Zelensky would have to stay above this particular fray.

I'd be happy if nobody shows up to it but I don't think the press is that disciplined.

Plus FOX news or OANN would show up anyway.

I can't imagine that it's in his interest to help the Democrats impeach (but not remove) Trump, while tremendously pissing off the sitting US president.

I agree wholeheartedly with staying out of US politics but how often does a smaller nation have a chance to kick Donald Trump in the balls.

Trump interfered in Ukrainian politics and Zelensky can now turn around and respond in kind.

Yeah Heck did really well - I really liked that he asked Taylor & Kent about how Trump has made their lives as diplomats harder and they responded he had done so by undermining them regularly and making snap decisions with no communication, damaging the worldwide perception and respect for the US goes down, making it tougher for all of us

If he does that then he's making the Republican's claims true post hoc: Ukraine would be meddling in internal American politics.
