he asked him, mr. president, what do you want from ukraine? what did the president say? interesting, mr. sondland left this out of his opening statement, his 20-some page opening statement. what do you want from ukraine. the president said i want nothing, no quid pro quo. i want him to do what he said. i want him to do what he ran on. you can't ignore that, the one piece of direct evidence. you want all this presumption, all this addendum. if you're going to take some of sondland, you got to take all of him. i yield back. >> i yield to mr. gates. >> i have 30 seconds. >> okay. >> i had 30 seconds left before they cut the clock. >> the gentleman will proceed. >> i yield to mr. gates. >> i thank the gentleman for yielding. i think the gentleman from tennessee, mr. cohen's debate on the last subject shows what we're dealing with.
