MSNBC Host Stunned After Key Donald Trump Impeachment Witness Backs Ex-President

MSNBC host Ari Melber was left stunned after Gordon Sondland, a former Trump administration official who testified against Donald Trump during his impeachment, said he would be backing the former president because of “how badly” the Harris-Biden team has run the country.

Sondland, a wealthy hotel magnate and Republican mega-donor, served as Trump’s ambassador to the European Union and was a key witness for House Democrats during Trump’s 2019 House impeachment inquiry.

Sondland testified that there was a “quid pro quo” between Trump and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky that secured military aid for Ukraine in exchange for an investigation into the Bidens’ business dealings and the 2016 election.

Melber pulled up a clip of Sondlad saying he was done supporting Trump following the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and asked him if he still felt the same way.

“No, I don’t stand by it and I’ll tell you why,” he said while sitting beside other former Trump administration officials Peter Navarro and Sarah Matthews. (Read more from “MSNBC Host Stunned After Key Donald Trump Impeachment Witness Backs Ex-President” HERE)
