This is exactly what SSF and I were discussing. They admit that there was a quid-pro-quo because the United Sates does that with foreign aid all the time. We make the aid dependent on using it properly or advancing the interests of the United States. That is what Biden did when he got the corrupt Ukraine prosecutor removed.
But they would have to say that the quid-pro-quo was for the benefit of US interest instead of Trumps personal political interests. I think that is a pretty weak argument, but it is better than saying there was no quid-pro-quo at all.
