(10,252 posts)And will the person transcribing it so swear it is true, complete, unedited, and unredacted? Surely that person must testify to Congress under oath.

(13,903 posts)as far as we know that has absolutely nothing to do with Ukraine.
This Ukraine transcript could also be doctored.
Since FF45 is releasing it, I am immediately suspicious.

(11,465 posts)Trump can't "clear this up" with a single transcript (although FOX will no doubt be happy to run with it). The capitulation by the White House means they know they're in deep sh*t. (and I'm wondering if some Rs are whispering things in their ears?)

(8,944 posts)Nothing but FULL TRANSPARENCY is appropriate. No whistleblower report means impeachment should continue to be pursued.
I have no reason whatsoever to believe he would not alter the transcript.

(18,141 posts)House Judiciary Committee transcripts of some of President Nixons Watergate tape recordings differ extensively, and in many cases significantly, from the edited transcripts made public by the White House.

(12,167 posts)The one in which he told the Ukrainian president that trump is the best president ever, or the one in which he tried to get President Zelensky to find dirt for him on Biden? For which phone call will he release the transcript?

(23,245 posts)Will anyone other than the dyed in the wool rw idiots believe one word of the self-serving lies he sees fit to print - fuck no! Let us hear the tape or this is just bogus lies and a complete fraud.
matt819
(10,749 posts)He won't.
If he does, it will a) not be complete and b) not be fully redacted.
The full recording must be released, and someone - who, I don't know - must confirm that it was the complete call.
Then, someone - the whistleblower? - must a) confirm that this is the call everyone seems to be talking about and b) identify any and all other such calls - to anyone - that prompted his whistleblower action.
Then, maybe, just maybe, we'll begin to get at the truth.
Of course, this is only the beginning.
Then we have Giuliani, and then Pompeo and Barr, all of whom have been implicated in the actions taken and in the coverup.

(24,404 posts)The whistleblower complaint is what is needed. THAT will show the pattern of behavior that a single transcript will not. Also, the quid pro quo was most likely not made in that particular call that tRump says he will release.

SeattleVet
(5,489 posts)He's always trying to out-Nixon, Nixon, so he's following the roadmap that was laid out.
He already has his Roy Cohen (Giuliani); has defied the legal demands of congressional investigators; and engaged in lies, deceit, and cover-up on a scale that would make even Nixon blush and say, "Whoa! Hold it just a minute, there, Spanky, and back off a bit! This is going way too far."
