Ultimately it was the lawyers, NOT tRump, who released the aid. tRump would still be holding out Bernardo de La Paz Nov 2019 #10

But any new VP must be approved by both the House and the Senate.

Nikki Haley or Liz Chaney are my two guesses. Nikki is sufficiently groveling, but she is brown and some of his Trump Turds might not like that.

Did the lawyers have the legal right to release aid? (not that it shouldn't have, but someone else with the authority need to do this?)
