He 'loves your a': ambassador reveals 'Trump-speak'
WASHINGTON, United States - Among the revelations on Wednesday in the impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump -- an ambassador revealed how he employs profanity-laden 'Trump-speak' in hopes of relating to the US president.
"That's how President Trump and I communicate -- a lot of four-letter words. In this case, three-letter," he said, drawing laughter from the crowd. The colorful language was first revealed to congressional investigators by David Holmes, a US diplomat in Ukraine, who described how Sondland invited the US team to lunch after a meeting in Kiev with Zelensky.
Trump is facing impeachment calls over allegations he demanded that Ukraine dig up dirt on his domestic rival Joe Biden as a condition for a summit with Zelensky and the release of military aid to fight Russian-backed separatists.
