Maybe “us” and “we” refer to Republicans?
this is hardly exculpatory.
It doesn't mean him personally.
Sure. Because people engaging in corruption always make sure to indicate that with the proper pronouns.
What corruption do you speak of? Trump knew over a dozen people listen to his conversations with other leaders since he took office. He released the transcript with the full confidence he did nothing wrong, and he didn't.
They tried desperately to keep a lid on this, and it got loose anyway. Seriously. The conversation was put in a top secret computer. Multiple people went to the lawyers at the CIA and NSC where it was suppressed. He then decided to block every request for information and every person's attempt to testify.
That's not how an innocent person acts.
He doesn't make the call where a transcript is put. Why would "he" put it somewhere in a top secret server after all those people were listening and a stenographer copied the entire thing?
Not sure how many people were listening myself and if I were a betting man, I bet Trump doesn't know who's listening either. People at the top levels of Trump's administration (yeah, probably not himself) put it in a top secret server because they knew that it was bad. And it was. It was just the beginning though, as we both well know.
