Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) tweeted that it would be “troubling in the extreme” if reports about President Donald Trump pressuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky into investigating Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden, in Ukraine prove to be accurate.
Previously, Trump refused to disclose any information about the telephone session. “It doesn’t matter,” said Trump last week. “The conversation I had was largely congratulatory, was largely corruption—all of the corruption taking place, was largely the fact that we don’t want our people like Vice President Biden and his son [contributing] to the corruption already in the Ukraine.”
