A 'CAUTION' note included in the notes of President Trump's telephone call with Ukraine's president explains that it is not a word-for-word transcript of the conversation.
It’s breathtaking how quickly Trump & Co. went to their dirty tricks playbook: The story here isn’t that Trump tried to extort a foreign government to gin up dirt on a political opponent; it’s that Joe Biden engaged in corrupt dealings with Ukraine.
The Situation Room is a secure meeting space in the basement of the White House West Wing where the president and members of the National Security Council, or NSC, discuss sensitive foreign and domestic policy issues. It is staffed 24 hours a day.The “caution” note goes on to explain that several factors can affect the accuracy of the recording. It cites poor telecommunication connections and “variations in accent and/or interpretation” among them. Zelensky spoke through a translator.
The word “inaudible” is used to indicate portions of a conversation the notetaker was unable to hear.
