Bolton? Testify? After Trump Gave Him a War?
John Bolton popped up outta nowhere, literally nowhere, to say that he would be willing to testify at Trump’s impeachment hearing in the senate.
Okay.
Which way?
Is he gonna tell the truth about saying that he was not part of “whatever drug deal Sondland and Mulvaney are cooking up”? Or, is he gonna flip like Lindsey Graham and swear on Baby Jesus’ little tootsies that Trump is God’s ambassador on planet earth?
I mean, Bolton is a chickenhawk with a wingspan of aircraft carrier.
“Here’s the best example of how war-horny John Bolton is: He’s still defending the one war that everyone else agrees was a terrible idea,” Noah said. Sure, invading Iraq “destabilized the Middle East and brought us ISIS, but other than that, nailed it.”
Trump is the closest he’ll ever get to creating another Bush so ya think he’s gonna bite the hand that fills his bottle and burps him?
I wouldn’t gamble on it.
I personally believe Bolton made this announcement after McConnell assured him he wouldn’t be called to testify.
1The House interviewed witnesses for some time; I assume the ones who were part of the hearings were those with information about the actual obstruction. Will the Senate interview Bolton before any trial to determine if he has any information about the obstruction? Just saying, lawyers usually don’t like to ask a question when they don’t already know the answer.
2Maybe after getting fired by Trump, Bolton is playing the quid quo pro card. He will testify against the administration unless he gets the war with Iran that he has worked so hard on.
3Oh, come on! Bolton waited till Trump’s bitch Mitch promised there wouldn’t be a trial. Then he piped up and said, “Oh, yeah! I’ll testify!”
And THEN he ran to the White House and told them, “Pay no attention to what I said! Nothing’s gonna happen! It’s just that people have been saying that I’m holding back so I can sell my book — and they’re threatening not to buy it if I don’t testify. So, what’s a greedy, money grubber to do? I HAD to say I’d do it — but we can count on Mitch. Don’t worry.”
Want proof? A reporter asked if he would respond to a subpoena from the House and his spokesman refused to answer.
Hello?
4Its the parade of the Revolting Critters, just like some old fashioned carnivals used to do when they came to town thinking that such a parade would entice paying customers into the big tent for the real show. Sickening, ain’t it!
