Donald Trump Accidentally Tells the Truth, Says Call With Ukrainian President 'Was Largely Corruption'

Donald Trump Accidentally Tells the Truth, Says Call With Ukrainian President 'Was Largely Corruption'

Well, he said it.

President Donald Trump is still grappling with controversy after pressuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate former Vice President and current 2020 Presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden.

Claims that Joe Biden used the power of the Vice Presidency to end a Ukrainian investigation into the energy company his son served on as a board member have widely been debunked, but that didn't stop Trump from using the influence of the Oval Office in an attempt to trigger an investigation into his political opponent.


While corruption is nothing new for the Trump administration, what was surprising is Trump actually told the truth about it, to some degree, when speaking to reporters on Sunday morning.

Watch below.

Trump called his actions exactly what they were, saying:

"The conversation I had was largely congratulatory. It was largely corruption — all of the corruption taking place. It was largely the fact that we don’t want our people, like Vice President Biden and his son, creating to the corruption already in the Ukraine."

Did he mean to say, "we discussed corruption"? Was he referring to his false claims about Biden? Is he just trolling us at this point?

Either way, Trump admitted to pressuring Zelensky to investigate the Bidens for his own political gain.

One might think that Trump is becoming more concerned as these allegations continue to blow up, but according to New York Times White House correspondent Maggie Haberman, the President is actually enjoying himself.

Then again, this doesn't look like the face of someone having fun.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), to the frustration of some Democratic party members, has remained hesitant on impeachment, but these new Ukraine developments appear to have rattled even her.

This isn't going away any time soon.

After President Donald Trump lashed out at late-night host Seth Meyers on Truth Social over the weekend and called him a "truly deranged lunatic," Meyers responded to Trump’s “ranting and raving” about him with a damning supercut on his program.

Trump apparently tuned in to Thursday night’s episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, where Meyers poked fun at the president’s complaints about Navy aircraft carriers using electromagnetic catapults instead of traditional steam-powered ones. Meyers joked that Trump "spends more time thinking about catapults than Wile E. Coyote."

Girl's Hilarious Reaction To Getting Divisive Candy For Halloween Caught On Doorbell Cam

In the '80s and '90s, kids were raised with the understanding that they got what they got, and they should say, "Thank you," for what they received. This was true for birthdays, holidays, and trick-or-treating on Halloween, even if they got candy they wanted to throw away the instant they turned the corner.

But kids today are much more communicative about what they like and don't like, and they can be brutal in their bluntness.

Democrats have continued to reject Republicans’ proposed continuing resolution to keep the government open without considering an extension of the premium tax credit that helps subsidize health insurance for people earning between 100% and 400% of the federal poverty level.

People Share The Best Ways To Shut Down A Debate With A Flat Earther Family Member

The Flat Earth conspiracy theory is strictly a modern online movement, rumored to have begun as a prank, that gained momentum among people who mistrust authority through the power of social media.

There is a persistent myth that Europeans in the Middle Ages believed the Earth was flat. But that is a 19th-century fabrication to sell Columbus Day, not historical reality.
