Pelosi's use of more aggressive language -- "bribery" and "extortion" -- reflects a realization by Democrats that the Ukraine narrative that they thought would be simple for the public to understand is not as clear-cut as they thought. ⁦@SherylNYT⁩ https://t.co/MNaHq4if85 — PolitiTweet.org

He said he would crack down on vaping. But now, under pressure from political advisers and lobbyists to factor in the potential pushback from his supporters, Trump has resisted any action. ⁦@anniekarni⁩ ⁦@maggieNYT⁩ ⁦@BySheilaKaplan⁩ https://t.co/opGdRjdyFr — PolitiTweet.org

The Republicans have three conflicting defenses for Trump, writes ⁦@gerardtbaker⁩: 1. There was no quid pro quo 2. There was but it's no big deal 3. There was, it was wrong, but voters should decide. He thinks the last is the most viable. https://t.co/xu5JMX9MDl — PolitiTweet.org
