Anddddd, during a speech this morning, Trump disparaged this brave soul, decided that the White House staff responsible for informing the whistle blower are "spies", and then pined for the treatment of spies and traitors in the old days, presumably implying that they should be hung. Just to throw in a dash of possible witness intimidation. His smiling little orange face is quickly disappearing down the hole that he's excavating with the world's largest metaphorical backhoe. In hindsight, the White House releasing the memo of Trump's phone call with Zelensky is like if a cop showed up to a murderer's house, and said "Goodday, sir, might I have a looksee inside your place, there are some nasty rumors flying around about you." The murderer then says "Nah man, I'm not gonna let you in without a warrant, but let me describe to you in detail what I've done with the body parts of missing people."
