Let me see if I can put it another way.
John Bolton could hold up a picture of Mick Mulvaney with a gun to Zelensky's head while providing a Trump tax return that says "1099s from V. V. Putin" and it wouldn't change a thing about this impeachment. /1
Dems will say "We knew it"
Republicans will say "This means nothing."
Carlson and Ingraham will say "Deep State provocation."
Half the American public will say "We got dragged through six more months for THIS?"
Trump will say: "Go fuck yourself." /2
The House could then a dozen more articles of impeachment. You might get a shamefaced Will Hurd added on to the total. Maybe. Possibly.
The Senate will acquit.
Meanwhile the Dem candidates will be *tied up in knots for months taking questions about impeachment*

This is the GOP plan, for crissakes. They *want* it to drag out for as long as possible. They don't care what's finally revealed because *it won't matter*

Impeach Trump. Have hearings aimed at sending the rest of his goon squad to prison. But stop waiting for the Magic Key. /4x
