The "Smoking Gun" is the whistleblower's complaint.
Although the information in the memo released by the White House is devastating, Mr Trump believes he can spin his way out of it. His "what about" arguments and his deflections and his rumor-mongering will eventually make the phone call charge go away.
But, he cannot spin or make the whistleblower report go away so easily. That is why they will do everything in their power to keep it from being seen by anyone. It is just too much for anyone to process.
Trump has now been in office for almost three years but never found the time or the reason to investigate anyone about Ukraine, including the Bidens, until he discovered that Joe Biden may be the biggest threat to him keeping the White House and staying out of jail. It was never on his radar until now? So he creates another "Hillary email" rumor and spreads it around as if he had all the facts and evidence to convict in a court of law, when he has nothing but rumors and innuendo.
The real battle will be for the whistleblower's complaint. Trump and the Republicans cannot afford to let Congress see it. They want it to end right now with the memo of the transcript released this morning.
The truth has put on its shoes.
