MSNBC’s Kirschner: Sondland Implicating Trump, W.H. Top Officials and Himself Make Him ‘Extra Credible’

‘He didn’t completely try to keep himself out of the conspiratorial loop’

RUSH EXCERPT:

KIRSCHNER: “You know, he wasn’t the most compelling witness I’ve ever seen. Dr. Fiona Hill probably was the most compelling witness I’ve ever seen in my 30 years as a prosecutor. You know, sondland I think brought some important facts to the table. He brought ome of that first-hand information out of Trump’s mouths, not just hearsay which was an incessant complaint of Republicans. Sondland if we had an Attorney general interested in enforcing the laws of the country, I actually think sondland implicated himself in a conspiracy to commit bribery, extortion, in a conspiracy to defraud the United States by reaching out to a foreign country to undermine our U.S. Elections. Flow, I don’t pretend that anyone’s going to necessarily want to bring charges against him, but the fact he incriminated himself makes him a little bit extra credible. He didn’t completely try to keep himself out of the conspiratorial loop. Instead he included everybody in it, Trump and Pompeo and Mulvaney. So, you know, I think he was at the end of the day a mixed bag.”
