That could be true, although all that could actually be done while


respecting the anonymity of the whistleblower, if we were still relying on him. You act as though Sondland didn't just confirm a quid pro quo. Went out of his way to do so, to apparently protect himself from legal jeopardy. Among many other sources. The "sham" is pure Trumpistanese for "confirmed and verified by multiple sources by this point".

So really, the character assassination of the whistleblower is a tactic to turn the clock back to before so much corroborated the whistleblower's concerns. We know there was a quid pro quo. The repub bar moved from "if there was a quid pro quo there'd be a problem" to "there was a quid pro quo, and it's a problem, but its not impeachable".

So really, there's not much reason to challenge the whistleblower's character anymore. Whatever it is, whatever motivated him, his initial complaint was vetted by the IG, and the critical facts have been corroborated.
