Watching Schiff do his opening statement at this very moment, I wonder if he would have a problem having Obama be called to testify as to what he asked of Medvedev...
Obama was overheard asking for time - “particularly with missile defense” -
"If Obama wasn’t looking for a favor to help him win, then why mention the election at all?
Was this flexibility, whatever it referred to, official U.S. policy?
Had Obama been told by brave career diplomats to offer Medvedev more flexibility after the election?
Or did Obama just make this offer on his own? Was it for his own benefit?
It is a metric that voters use and value in evaluating a sitting president.
Just ask Jimmy Carter, who lost his re-election campaign in the midst of the Iran hostage crisis.
What is clear from the hot mic moment is that Obama was offering to do some thing or things after the election that he could not do prior to the election.
And he was asking Russia to show patience and help that re-election happen."

Flashback: Obama Asked The Russians To Interfere In A U.S. Election
The Trump impeachment members should ask Obama if he was asking a favor of Medvedev.
A favor of Putin that would AFFECT Obama's re-election.
A favor of Putin for time.
In exchange Obama will be LAX on allowing Putin's missile aggression against the USA!
Really....
