President Trump apparently has more to share when it comes to exchanges with Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky, and he seems more than happy to do just that.

During a press conference Wednesday, Trump said the July phone call he had with Zelensky was actually the second conversation between the two leaders, and he doesn't understand why no one's asked for the transcript of the first. "It was beautiful," he said, using similar language to his past descriptions of the July call. "It was just a perfect conversation."
