The transcript isn't the basis for the complaint. The whistle-blower is.
And as has been posted earlier White House aides don't do word for word transcripts of WH calls, they do readouts which are summaries written by people working for the President. We know Donald Trump has lied about contents of calls and is an otherwise untrustworthy person, anything he gives up willingly is worthy of suspicion.
Has Ukraine confirmed that Trump pressured them or held financial aid over their head?
Also, why would Trump need to pressure Ukraine over Joe and Biden Hunter? It seems that story was all over the news already.
