The game:
1) Released testimony is devastating
2) Rs say they demolished that testimony in private hearing
3) Rs scream Ds are hiding this
4) When transcripts are released and don't exonerate Trump, they'll claim opposite and Fox will amplify that lie

Rs can call for transcripts' release, knowing that when they *don't* exonerate Trump, they can just lie about it, and use the release as the hook to argue that the Dem coverup has been exposed.
They can count on the Fox/propaganda network to play along:
