Hopefully, Senator McConnell will only allow one vote, and that vote will contain a list of all additional witnesses.

So, if Mitt Romney wants to hear from John Bolton, he has to vote to also allow President Trump to call any witness that he wants to call including the Bidens, the whistleblower, ICIG, Schiff, Schiff's staff, etc.

Yep. Load up the witness list with all kinds of “poison pills.” Even the Dems will vote against that list.

Schumer’s final gambit will be to try and get an up/down vote on a per witness basis, but I think McConnell will have enough power to keep the GOPe squishes in line.

Nice play.......it's reassuring to know Mitch is the master of loading up measures with poison pills.
