Rep. Schiff: John Bolton’s Testimony Could Have Led To ‘An Unraveling Of The Trump Defense’ | MSNBC

  1. No. That defense was pretty much entirely unraveled, but the senate republicans voted to acquit anyway – as we all knew they would. Because they see impeachment as a tool to harass democrats, not a tool for protecting our democracy..

    1. . MSNBC SPREADING THE RACISM THATS KILLING PEOPLE WHILE LUCIFERS MINIONS DROP THEIR LABMADE VIRUS ANYWHERE THEY PLEASE

    2. Tell us about the serpent demon people posing as human gutting humanity from the inside, flyboy.. Tell us in detail you phony little gutter imp

    5. Norm alice : Yes, if Bolton had PROVED, beyond doubt, that Donny plotted 911 with his lover, Bin Laden, they STILL would have acquitted, because the most Kompromised GOP members were sitting on the, “Jury,” FFS! And, if anyone thinks that the GOP are just sitting around, WAITING to lose in November and Go Directly To Jail, they’re INSANE! Look around you, America? The Coup is underway, and they plan to STEAL your, “elections,” and your Republic

  2. Republicans in the house, Mitch McConnell, Lindsay Graham and other Republicans in the Senate had said They would not call any witnesses. Lindsay Graham had said he already made up his mind. Republicans had telegraphed their intentions before the trial. Republicans had already decided Trump could trash the constitution and they were ready to back him.

    1. Someone has a selective memory, lucky there is an IG report you can read while you cry yourself to sleep.

    2. sam Iaint : And, if anyone thinks that the GOP are just sitting around, WAITING to lose in November and Go Directly To Jail, they’re INSANE! Look around you, America? The Coup is underway, and they plan to STEAL your, “elections,” and your Republic! ✌️

    1. Me too…, and that was a very small moustache…., the real big moustaches are with john b. and joseph s.
      Scary aint it?

  3. It surely could (as if I knew better than A.S.) – that’s a shame Bolton chose $$ over Country.

    1. Ilia Smirnoff : And, if anyone thinks that the GOP are just sitting around, WAITING to lose in November and Go Directly To Jail, they’re INSANE! Look around you, America? The Coup is underway, and they plan to STEAL your, “elections,” and your Republic

  4. trump blocked Bolton and now he is firing us attorney wtf what’s next can’t believe you don’t do anything to this crook/con president!

    1. Trumps infected with serpent moles, tell us about serpent moles in detail and where they come from, we’re waiting..

    2. It’s beyond your realm of intelligence. Think of it as a chess game. Uneducated, indoctrinated foolish little one.

  5. All of the Republicans Senators who voted against witnesses in the impeachment trial are just as guilty as Trump.

  6. At least it would make considerably more difficult for Banana Republicans to suppress witness testimonies.

  7. Bolton’s book has been paid for with American Blood. If we had been able to get rid of Trump and Pence before January, Pelosi would have been president. While I don’t love her, I’m willing to bet she would have done a better job when this pandemic hit.

    Like I said last year during the Senate half of the impeachment hearings, I will never purchase that book.

    1. @King OfTroy there you go. She would STILL have done a better job, wether or not what you have said is true.

  8. We’d now have what he is saying reinforced by the oath, and it’d be more difficult for trump to deny it. But, as the judge wrote, “the horse left the barn” on that.

    1. M P : What does it matter to you, trump troll? It’s not like you’re an, “American,” or anything? 😆

    2. @M P there is no evidence that has ever been presented that even remotely clears trump of any wrong doing for ANY of the things hes accused of, was impeached for and eventually will be charged and convicted for….

    3. Noreb : M P knows that. He’s just upset because things are looking so bleak for Typhoid Trump right now. Probably ran out of tick tock tickets to the next PANDEMICON? 😉

    4. @M P SO what DID you think of his leather soles policy,
      & who would want to be in the ramp industry ATM!

    1. 3 strikes and you are dead!!! Remember the 3 strikes policy (mostly black men) That came into law under the clinton administration but LARGLY thanks to republican pundits and talking points (do not get me wrong on this.., i basicly blame both sides.., but there´s one republican side wich deserves it more!!!).., and the Clintons testified for hours (on stupid matters.., again thanks too republikans!) so where is donald??? Yes he is hiding!!! Because he is guilty!
      And the Iraq war, financial crisis of 2008 and watergate have something in common: THEY ARE LARGLY REPUBLIKAN MADE!!! And now the republicans give us more hypocracy and lies then even some fox ¨news¨ folk can handle!
      It has become sickening to the core how rotten to the bone the right wing became.., sad but true!!!
      Greetings bibia.

  9. The Dems had no time as this is the election year. On hindsight the Covid 19 would have prevented the impeachment vote.

    1. The GOP or the trumplicans are going to reap what they have sown and it wont be humble pie life is all about new beginnings , november should be rather interesting

  10. Even bolton at end of interview said nothing in his book would of changed outcome of impeachment .

  11. I love Schiff. He calls out the BS and he makes no excuses for it. That’s what REAL leaders are supposed to do.

  12. “I’m not here for my country I’m here for my 2 million dollars” said the traitorous warmonger old walrus he is!
