Trump attacks Bolton: “He begged me for a job!”

01/29/2020 Ms. G Impeachment 0

On Wednesday, Trump took to Twitter to attack “his former national security adviser John Bolton, whose explosive allegation in the Ukraine scandal has opened the door for GOP support of potential witnesses in Trump’s impeachment trial.”

….many more mistakes of judgement, gets fired because frankly, if I listened to him, we would be in World War Six by now, and goes out and IMMEDIATELY writes a nasty & untrue book. All Classified National Security. Who would do this?

Why didn’t John Bolton complain about this “nonsense” a long time ago, when he was very publicly terminated. He said, not that it matters, NOTHING!

Trump also appeared to give a warning to Republicans about voting in favor of calling witnesses to testify:

Remember Republicans, the Democrats already had 17 witnesses, we were given NONE! Witnesses are up to the House, not up to the Senate. Don’t let the Dems play you!

FACTS:

That's not true.

Republicans on House Intelligence Committee requested nine witnesses and three of them — Hale, Morrison, and Volker — testified.

Excerpts from the letter below. #4, #5, #7 were all called.

No matter how many witnesses you give the Democrats, no matter how much information is given, like the quickly produced Transcripts, it will NEVER be enough for them. They will always scream UNFAIR. The Impeachment Hoax is just another political CON JOB!

It must be Opposite Day again:

There is much talk that certain Democrats are going to be voting with Republicans on the Impeachment Hoax, so that the Senate can get back to the business of taking care of the American people. Sorry, but Cryin’ Chuck Schumer will never let that happen!
