Well, we all saw this was coming?

Trump seeking to block Bolton from testifying in the impeachment hearing! But, he won’t have a problem with the Biden’s, Schiff or the the whistleblower testifying! I guess the king thinks he the master of all the laws?

Bolton says he is available to testify, knowing damn will Moscow Mitch will never call on him, that way he can sell his 2 million dollar book, and when asked why can you sell your testimony but not provide it to the Senate, he can say pffftttt hey I said I would testify and I was never called. What was I to do?

Par for the course in this hideous administration

I've seen speculation that only one Article of Impeachment could be sent to the Senate now and the other held for further investigation.

and that it will equate to permanent damage to the rule of law and weaken the impeachment process, the more the merrier that will split from this corrupt administration. Many more are stepping up to the plate. I don't trust Bolton either, but he's now Trumps enemy so he's my friend for now.

I think Mr. Tribe said that people will distrust the process and will split as part two of Pelosi holding back a bit.

Cue up Rudy Colludy and his mountain of evidence of corruption. Crank up the GOP outrage machine to ear-splitting volume in 3, 2, 1....

That the position of the POTUS does carry a lot of power that it should not have, the one problem with his little brain is that he thinks it goes beyond to what it really is, and thus he does think he is as close at it gets to being a king.
