What Went Down On Day 3 Of The Trump Impeachment Hearings

I think, Rick, that the goal is to justify the GOP/Trump’s interest in Burisma. If even Obama was interested in investigating Burisma, why would it be a problem for Trump to want Ukraine to look into it too?

Rick, I guess it could be to establish that interest in investigating Burisma isn’t nefarious? But I agree, that’s inconsistent messaging.

Any theories about why GOP counsel would want the witnesses to confirm the Obama administration’s interest in a Burisma investigation? As anti-Trump Republican Tim Miller just tweeted, “Isn’t the whole conspiracy that the Obama admin was trying to protect them?!”
