Reminds me of the immigration negotiations.

IIRC, POTUS offered full DACA amnesty in exchange for a legislative bill funding the wall. Even though that was exactly what they were asking for the Dems turned him down.

The Left refuses to accept anything but total capitulation from their opponents.

Gosh, does this mean that the Dems have been hyping the importance of Bolton’s testimony to fool the ignorant, knowing all along he had nothing on Trump?

Fine, just cancel the whole thing. Vote to acquit and call Democrats drooling idiots at the same time.

Why is it “off the table”? It’s certainly relevant. If there’s really corruption in the Ukraine involving the Bidens then it’s perfectly legitimate to want to stop it.

Couldn’t stand watching today,but could not believe it when reviewing the events, Wallace said that Whiff grossly misrepresented the phone call.

If the Demonrats are not willing to compromise, then call for a vote on guilt. If it is less than 2/3 yes, it is all over.

I thought that was the publisher kick back. Contract for common core materials results in sweet book deal.

Cash is fungible.

Do we know how much prior debt Obama had? What about the money that Rezko fronted for Obama's home in Chicago? Did he ever pay that back?

From early on I figured that “trade” was some rope-a-dope. The dems and Biden being the dope side of the swap.

Both NY and the Feds will try to destroy the Trump family and imprison Trump after he leaves office.

Are they insinuating the Dems can veto a witness request? That would make it House-redux...
