i don't think any -- zero, to put it mildly. they took a perfect phone call that i had with the president of ukraine, an absolutely perfect call. they all know it. nothing was said wrong in that call. >> reporter: now, jake, despite this letter from the president that vote is still going to happen tomorrow. even he seems to hint in here at the end that he doesn't think this letter is going change the outcome of that vote but he says i write this letter to you for the purpose of history and to put my thoughts on a permanent and indelible record. thank you. let's chew over all this and let's start with cnn using the term scorching or scathing to describe the letter. really there's so many adjectives that can be used. what's the word you would use? >> typical. >> alarming. >> exhaustive. >> trump. >> very trump. >> we did a lightning round and actually had one word.
