They hope some Senate Republicans are stupid enough to drag out the pointless impeachment exercise for weeks or months.

This isn’t stupidity. This is insidious and they know exactly what they are doing.

Disagree....I’m looking at coordination with Dems. Particularly because Vindman’s twin has been mentioned as one of the reviewers.

I understand that end, but for Pelosi to gamble a delay in handing over the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate for over a month may indicate she knew the book was coming and had relevant passages to the sham. That would have required Bolton's coordination else Pelosi is just a lucky gambler.

Yes. Trump needs good counsel when he makes hiring decisions. And get rid of all damn Obama holdovers.

I remember when she stepped up to the plate and gave an awesome address during the crooked, fake situations drummed up against Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh. She restored my faith in my country at that moment. God, please help her to do it again.

I don't think she has that much sneakiness left in her wrinkled body.

Bolton is now the Dems hero.

Fifteen years ago they hated his freaking’ guts so badly George W. Bush was forced to recess appoint him.

“In his August 2019 discussion with Mr. Bolton, the president appeared focused on the theories Mr. Giuliani had shared with him, replying to Mr. Bolton’s question that he preferred sending no assistance to Ukraine until officials had turned over all materials they had about the Russia investigation that related Mr. Biden and supporters of Mrs. Clinton in Ukraine.”

That’s a VERY different assertion than what the media (and Democrats) are claiming the NYT article on Bolton said.

“... concerned the President was granting favors to the autocratic leaders of China and Turkey.”

Granting favors? That sounds so horrible! /S

While listening to the various defense counsel presentations yesterday, and continuing to flesh out further details of...

... what President Trump did or did not do,
... what past Presidents and VPs have done or not done,
... what acts or omissions are “right” or “wrong”
... what acts or omissions are “impeachable” or not..

The thing that hit me (like a ton of bricks) was how squeaky clean this President is, when you consider the unprecedented level of scrutiny reserved just for him.

What a national treasure Donald J Trump is turning out to be.

I don’t think we the people are going to let the deep state take him away from us. He’s too good.

[ Well said. I do not recognize the country now versus the one I grew up in in the 1950’s. ]

Thank you. I barely survived the Lying Kenyan Usurper’s damage. I KNOW how bad things were.

And now the Democrats are trying to take down what success President Trump has had against impossible odds.

I don’t even recognize the country from 16 years ago.

Meanwhile, some portion of America is too concerned about professional sports, TV, movies, etc. They don’t even see it coming.

[The end of the Republic is precisely their goal.]

You know, at one time, that might have been called a tinfoil nut-job conspiracy.

The things they do, the things they say, the things they try all seem to be focused in that direction.

I said Hillary would rather have World War III (or World War IV) with the Russians rather than admit 1/2 of America rejected her and her lies.

From what I have seen, America does not seem significant in End Times Bible Prophecy. Some nations are obviously present but the most powerful one (at this time) does not appear to be significant enough to mention.

I agree with John Ankerberg on a recent show: Power will switch to Europe (where I believe the beast world-wide government of Daniel 7:23 arises) along with the Man of Sin, their leader from Daniel 8:23-25.

I have watched in shocked disbelief at all the damage the Democrats have done since 2008. I’m also shocked at Shrub Boosh deciding his new BFF is the Lying Kenyan (guess we shouldn’t be surprised after he turned traitor on open borders to illegal invaders).

I guess ... stay tuned.

I didn’t think you were in agreement with it, I was reacting to the hysterics in the article.

Carry on indeed!
