Let me give you a true/false test:
President Zelensky said he was not pressured. That he didn't know of any quid pro quo required in order to get the money.
The money was delivered.
Zelensky didn't have to do a quid pro quo to get the money.

When did Floridaman mention corruption at all?
When Rudy did all his admitting on TV, he rubbed out most of the lawyer client privilege
Presidential privilege is not all encompassing in scope and the administration has unprecedentedly blocked everything that congress asked for.
As far as Zelensky not being able to say publicly that he was pressured, there is evidence that Ukraine knew the aid was being withheld, arrangements were made to announce an investigation and the whole drug deal blew up when the whistleblower information was coming out and there was no way around it.
No different than any other extortion case, it's a crime whether you were successful or not.
The other question there is what happened to the criminal referral that came out of the whistleblower report, just how did that disappear?
And here's Mulvaney........admitting to a quid pro quo or are you claiming the equal to "did not have sexual relations with that woman"?
