Re: "Take her out": Recording of Trump at dinner talking about Ukraine ambassador Marie Yovanovitch
The Ukraine meddled in the 2016 election against Trump is a Russian-supplied myth:
Oh yes, Comrade Trump is totally a Putin sock-puppet:
She was a corrupt Obama holdover who did her work with the corrupt pro-Russia regime in Ukraine. I don't weep for any Democrat when the Democrat buffoons just spent three years calling Trump a Russian puppet.

Charges of Ukrainian Meddling? A Russian Operation, U.S. Intelligence Says
Moscow has run a yearslong operation to blame Ukraine for its own 2016 election interference. Republicans have used similar talking points to defend President Trump in impeachment proceedings.
In a briefing that closely aligned with Dr. Hill’s testimony, American intelligence officials informed senators and their aides in recent weeks that Russia had engaged in a yearslong campaign to essentially frame Ukraine as responsible for Moscow’s own hacking of the 2016 election, according to three American officials. The briefing came as Republicans stepped up their defenses of Mr. Trump in the Ukraine affair.
Oh yes, Comrade Trump is totally a Putin sock-puppet:
Trump called for the end of the sanctions on Russia.
Trump suggested Russia wasn't responsible for its assassination in Great Britain.
Trump apes Russian talking points about Ukraine hacking the 2016 election, not Russia. Here's how Putin played him like a violin.
Trump lied about a hotel deal in Russia.
Trump continually showers Putin with praise. He said Putin was "so nice," he called Putin a "strong leader" and said Putin has done "a really great job outsmarting our country." Trump also claimed he'd "get along very well" with Putin.
Trump hired Manafort to run his campaign, despite Manafort's decades-long involvement in supporting Moscow-backed politicians in Ukraine, and his close involvement with Russian oligarchs.
During the presidential campaign, Trump broke with US policy and suggested he was OK if Russia kept the Ukrainian territory. He repeated a Kremlin talking point, saying, "The people of Crimea, from what I've heard, would rather be with Russia than where they were."
His news conference with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki was an embarrassment.*His*meeting with the Russian president*came on the heels of Russia’s attempted assassination of a dissident on British soil using banned chemical weapons and the*indictment of 12 Russians for 2016 election meddling. Instead of condemning these actions, Trump publicly sided with Putin over his own intelligence community. When confronted by a journalist about the assassination attempt, he defended Putin while selling out America, saying "there are a lot of killers. Do you think our country is so innocent?"
Trump called NATO, which directly confronts Russia's expansionist desires, "obsolete."
Trump praised Putin for his campaign victory in March, 2018, even though western observers judged it was not fair. In doing so, Trump gave Putin a legitimacy he didn't deserve.
Trump defended Russia's invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, which America spent years opposing.
Trump wants to let Russia back into the G7.
Trump delayed vital defense funds to Ukraine who are in a shooting war with Russia.
