Romney: 'Increasingly Likely' More Republicans Will Support Calling Bolton As Witness
Source: Huffington Post
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) said Monday that its increasingly likely there will be enough Republicans in the Senate to vote in favor of calling former national security adviser John Bolton as a witness in President Donald Trumps impeachment trial.
I think its important for us to hear from John Bolton for us to be able to make an impartial judgment, Romney told reporters. He also said he had spoken to other GOP senators about the subject, but declined to say whom.
In a surprising development Sunday, The New York Times shared drafts from Boltons book outline stating Trump did in fact tie withholding Ukraine aid to the countrys announcement that it would investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter.
Trump denied Boltons reported account later that day on Twitter, insisting he never told Bolton the Ukraine aid was tied to investigations into Democrats.
