I never claimed that Trump was a good or altruistic person. I think you're making huge assumptions about what I'm saying.

Yes, Trump tried to do something illegal, probably found out it was illegal afterwards and then had to comply with the law. 

What matters is if they can find evidence of his intentions. His base will believe that he was simply trying to stop corruption. The opposition say that it was a selfish move to attempt to crush a political opponent. We need proof of his intentions or not one Republican is going to vote to impeach in the Senate.

Sworn testimony? of people carrying out his orders, that claim it was on his behalf arnt good enough?

Crooks know well enough not to record incrimating evidence on tapes or write it down.
Trump walks that fine line often enough, that hes probably paranoid, that when he does things that might break the law, he makes sure its "his word" against anothers (who just claims hes carrying out his orders).

That way if something goes wrong, trump can just throw them under the bus.

Its a patern by now, how many of trumps own people have gone to jail for him? and afterwards hes like "I barely knew the guy" "he only met him a few times" "Never met him" ect.....

Which sworn testimony? I'm not trying to be difficult, I just haven't seen any testimony where they said he wanted Zelinsky to investigate Biden because he might go up against him in 2020.
