Get ready for it ...
Witnesses! Documents! Witnesses! Documents! Witnesses! Documents! Witnesses! Documents! Witnesses! Documents!
Per Lindsey this PM..
“If people want witnesses, we’re gonna get a LOT of witnesses,” he says.
“There’s not a scintilla of evidence that the Biden’s connection to Ukraine was inappropriate, there’s a tsunami of evidence.”
He says that Hunter Biden “basically turned it into an ATM Machine.”
“I’ll make a prediction; they’ll be 51 Republican votes to call Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, the whistleblower and the DNC staffer [who reportedly met with a Ukrainian operative] at a very minimum.”
“As much as I like Joe Biden, he has to answer for his time as the leader of anti-corruption efforts in Ukraine.”
“[Sen.] Lankford’s idea —looking at the manuscript — makes sense to me,” he says. “But we’re just not going to call John Bolton. If you call John Bolton, we’re calling everybody. We’re not just going to call one witness. It’d be Joe Biden, it’d be Hunter Biden, it’d be the chief of staff to John Kerry, it’d be the DNC staffer who allegedly met with the Ukrainian operative. I don’t know if it’s true or not. I’d be the whistleblower. It’d be a lot of people.”

Yep. Nothing changes. The presentation will move no votes, although parts of it will be used to justify the pre-existing positions.
Bolton, Bolton, Bolton.
I'm most curious if Team Trump will move to exclude House evidence. This is an ask provided for in the trial rules.
Sure enough ... and for any witness the President’s team wants to call: “Irrelevant to the impeachment! ... irrelevant to the impeachment! ... irrelevant to the impeachment!”
Democrat media pressure. We have heard all we need to hear and its time to dismiss the articles of impeachment and to acquit the President.
