It's worth quoting from the Washington Post's description of the "scandal" that is causing a rush to impeachment by the House Democrats. The Post is perhaps the biggest cheerleader that the Democrats have in major media and it describes the matter as an "investigation focused mainly on the explosive accusation that Trump urged Ukraine's president to dig up dirt about a political rival.... In addition to Trump's call, a whistleblower complaint claimed that unidentified White House officials tried to keep the conversation a secret within the government.
Just look at that description. We've all seen the record of the phone call. Despite the "accusation", the actual facts show that Trump didn't urge the Ukrainian president to do anything of the sort, and president Zelezny has confirmed this. And even the Washington Post says that the supposed effort to keep the conversation secret was done by unidentified officials. It can't even bring itself to tie this supposed effort to the President. And, of course, we know on top of this that the only person saying that there was a coverup is the whistleblower himself who apparently was unaware the the White House procedures for handling of transcripts of all calls with foreign leaders had changed.
