Lie October 17, 2019 · Rally · Impeachment (Ukraine)
“[Burisma] hired [Hunter Biden], paying him massive amounts of money, much more than the $50,000 a month that you heard about. That's a lot, that's a lot, but much more. Joe Biden made them go out and fire the prosecutor .... They don't want to show the tape where he was bragging [about this]. They're not going to get [the U.S. aid] money unless they get rid [of the prosecutor] and boom they got rid of the prosecutor. He was investigating [Biden's] son and the son's company, got rid of them. Now, that's what you call, quid pro quo.”
