From Fox News: Gordon Sondland, who served as then-President Trump’s ambassador to the EU and who became a star witness against him in his first impeachment, shocked an MSNBC host by saying Trump won his support once again.
MSNBC host Ari Melber spoke with three former Trump officials, including White House adviser Peter Navarro, White House spokeswoman Sarah Matthews and Sondland, about topics such as how working for the Trump administration has impacted their lives or what the most important thing was that they learned about the former president. Sondland in particular was asked whether he stands by a previous disavowal of the president after the events of Jan. 6, 2021.
“No, I don’t stand by it, and I’ll tell you why,” Sondland began. “I’ve now lived four years under the Biden-Harris policies and I have to say that those policies are not only becoming an existential threat to our country’s way of life, but to our allies as well.”
The host loudly interrupted him and began shouting, “I’m going to let you finish, but this is so striking. You said it was a ‘no for me’ after that, after Jan. 6. And here we are right now, and you’re saying it’s a yes for you?”
“It is a yes, for me. It is an absolute yes for me,” Sondland said. “That is how badly the Biden-Harris team have prosecuted their job.”
Melber yelled back, “But the whole point you seem to be making was that Jan. 6th and that kind of attack on democracy is bigger than any policy…”
Sondland replied, “But I am seeing so many attacks on democracy that eclipse Jan. 6th.”

Sondland also explained, “I want to express is that I’ve now lived for four years under the Biden-Harris administration. I live in a bucolic city of Portland, Oregon, which has been destroyed by those policies. Absolutely decimated. Businesses are suffering. My own business is suffering solely for political reasons, and it’s all fixable and they don’t want to fix it.”
Reactions are pouring in on social media:
This is glorious to watch😂😂

@MSNBC isn’t going to be inviting that dude on Ari Melber show anytime soon. They certainly did not see that coming. Also, there isn’t a greater threat to democracy than jailing your political opponents, going after their finance and working without success to destroy their name.
