6:02Now PlayingPresident Donald Trump says he's considering releasing the transcript of a second call he had with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy. He says if House investigators want to see a summary of the April 21 call, he has "no problem giving it to them."
That call came three months before the July call that sparked the impeachment inquiry into his efforts to push Zelenskiy to investigate his political rivals.
Trump on Friday also dismissed the significance of the impeachment inquiry testimony that has been released so far as he left the White House for a trip to Georgia.
He says, "No one seems to have any first-hand knowledge" and claims that, "Every one of those people canceled themselves out."
He's also criticizing Democrats in the House for planning public hearings, even though the White House pushed for them to happen.
Trump again took aim at the whistleblower and his attorney, Mark Zaid, who Trump said "should be sued...maybe for treason."
He called the Democrat Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Adam Schiff, a "corrupt politician," but added, "despite all that, we're kicking their ass."
The president also denied he asked Attorney General Bill Barr to hold a news conference to declare he broke no laws in his conversation with Ukraine's president, insisting, "if I ask Bill Barr to have a press conference, I think he'd do it. But I never asked him to have a press conference."
