I think its very interesting that the GOP is clinging to this talking point that Zelensky was not intimidated into a favor because he said he wasn't. This is, of course, after Vindman testified that the power difference between the two meant that trump's request would be interpreted as a command. The GOP says hell no, meanwhile, they are also so scared of him that they lie for him, even about this. THey would rather retire than confront him. Sad. They have been so castrated.
