• President Donald Trump spoke at a rally in Lexington, Kentucky, on November 4, the same day that the public phase of the impeachment inquiry began.
• Trump supporters debuted a new campaign shirt with the phrase "READ THE TRANSCRIPT" at a rally in Kentucky on Monday.
• Trump's chief defense as the impeachment inquiry progresses is to "read the transcript," referring to the summary transcript of a call between the president and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky released by the White House.
