1 The problem with corrupt politicians like @senatemajldr @SenatorCollins @LindseyGrahamSC @marcorubio is that they are often too thuggish to know when their corruption is about to destroy them. The @AmbJohnBolton news is just that.

If they come up with some nonsense....

2...to keep him from testifying, well that’s fine. He’ll just appear on national television much closer to the election, describing how Trump corrupted foreign policy for his own political benefit. The house will have him testify.

THEN the publicity will be massive. And the...

3...GOP senate will be consumed by it. There will be ads of the GOP crime syndicate, with Trump robbing the bank and Mitch, Lindsey, Susan, Marco and every other GOP senator driving the getaway car because they interfered with witnesses. Sure they’ll try that “everyone is lying..

4...except the guy who has told 13,000 lies in the last three years” but that will be a joke.

OR...they can allow testimony and then ignore it because of continuing, absurd whining about process. At which point - ads. Trump robbing bank, each GOP senator driving getaway car...

5...OR... they can vote to convict and the trump cultists will rage and knock them out.

Their irrationality, lies and excusing corruption has finally caught up with them. Convict, don’t convict. Call wotnessss, don’t.

No matter what, the GOP indulgence of Trumps corruption...

6...will sink the party. And good riddance. It is time for the destruction of the GOP and the return of a real Conservative party that is not consumed with lies, conspiracy theories, and abject ignorance.

Let’s sit back, grab some popcorn, and watch the squirming begin.
