Now, the obvious question is, why is this significant.  And the answer is, if he's not working for the government, but rather he is working for Trump, then whatever he was asking Ukraine to do was for Trump personally.   And that means, Trump was asking for a personal favor from a foreign government.   And that is completely illegal.

And when this flames out, the Dems have a dozen other plots to "get" the President.  The Resolution they passed has no time limit.  I don't believe they will ever send Articles Of Impeachment to the Senate - why should they?  It would expose THEM to a trial controlled by Republicans.  The House Resolution actually establishes a new form of government, one which circumvents the Constitution and which will remain in effect until the Dems lose their House majority.  The Resolution places Speaker Pelosi as the Legislative Branch of this new government.  Intel Committee chair Schiff is the Executive Branch; he alone controls the agenda, and Judiciary chair Nadler is the Judicial Branch in all disputed matters of "law" between the Pelosi government and the White House (in each decision, Nadler will place Pelosi above the White House).  They intend to "impeach" Trump for the next 5 years.
