President Trump was commenting on the testimony of Marie Yovanovitch.
Everywhere Marie Yovanovitch went turned bad. She started off in Somalia, how did that go? Then fast forward to Ukraine, where the new Ukrainian President spoke unfavorably about her in my second phone call with him. It is a U.S. President’s absolute right to appoint ambassadors.
They call it “serving at the pleasure of the President.” The U.S. now has a very strong and powerful foreign policy, much different than proceeding administrations. It is called, quite simply, America First! With all of that, however, I have done FAR more for Ukraine than O.

During her deposition on October 11, Yovanovitch and Schiff speculated that Trump and Zelensky bashed her during their April 21st phone call with each other. The call transcript shows that never happened. She’s yet another disgruntled conspiracy-mongering bureaucrat.
