Trump denies 'dicey' conversation with foreign leader

US President Donald Trump again denied Friday that he did anything wrong during a mysterious phone call with an as-yet unidentified foreign leader after a whistleblower in the intelligence services sounded the alarm.

The Washington Post reported that the call was to Ukraine and that Trump had made a "promise" of some kind.

"There was nothing said wrong, it was pitch perfect!" Trump tweeted, without detailing whom he had spoken to or what was said.

He said his Democratic opponents and the media "think I may have had a 'dicey' conversation with a certain foreign leader" but this was only based on what he called "a 'highly partisan' whistleblowers statement."
Giuliani mostly confirmed that, telling The New York Times: "I'm asking them to do an investigation... because that information will be very, very helpful to my client, and may turn out to be helpful to my government."
Earlier this month, Democratic leaders of the House intelligence, foreign affairs and oversight committees expressed concern that Trump was trying to "coerce" the Ukrainian leader into "politically-motivated investigations."
