I really hope that the House understands that they can and calls trump's bluff.

It won't be accepted as evidence in the Senate trial, but that's where our tendency to overthink things really gets in our way.

Theatrics have a role in this process. The GOP understands that very well.

The news media would immediately dump the Senate farce to cover Bolton's testimony. Every network except Faux "news."
