Yup, the multitudes of Democratic par-tay Thayli don’t want anything that might throw the election to their true enemies: Elizabeth, Bernie, that whole crew… Â
But ceaseless DNC squirming to avoid GOP witlesses has reached the end of the road. (And a long squirm it has been down this road, too. Now pick yourselves up, dust yourselves off, hold your head up high and join us bi-pedalists. For Democrats, Vertical is Victory.)Â
The GOP is trying for leverage, to quote Lindsay Graham, “Let’s call ALL relevant witnesses.” Little bit of blackmail there? Feel an urge to kowtow Democrats?Â
It’s time for Dems to stand up and say, “That’s RIGHT, LET’S SEE HOW SERIOUSLY TRUMP TAKES CORRUPTION !”Â
Instead of two lists (Democratic witnesses and Republican Chewbaccas / witnesses), we have four: Democratic fact witnesses and Democratic Trump Corruption witnesses, with whatever corresponding clowns the GOP wishes to throw out there.
I can hear you through my keyboard (neat trick that), you Biden / Bloomberg supporters you, saying that it’s not fair and pointing out that your’s truly is a lib supporter of Beth or Bern and just wants to avoid anyone with Wall Street pedigree. Buuuuut…. see, Bolton *has* to be called at this point. And there is ZERO percent chance that Republicans will meekly let Bolton’s evidence in but then fail to go full three-ring distraction.  If Bolton comes in, so does Hunter. The real choice you face is whether you really want Bolton or not. And I admit, there are a lot of tactical reasons it might be better, in the long game (sorry, I mean the long run), to “lose” and not have Bolton called at all. Â
But it seems that ship has sailed, Bolton is on deck and waxing his Yosemite Sam. And when Bolton comes in, Bidens do too. Sooo…. adjust your mind to the obvious fallback position: “YES, LET’S INVESTIGATE THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION’S COMMITMENT TO FIGHTING CORRUPTION!”  Â
Can of worms, meet the US Senate. Try not to look down on them.Â
Okay, I’m going to omit the obvious list that goes here: emoluments, hotel reservations, prices jacked up before visits, riding the Doonbeggy for all it’s worth, renting Trump Tower space, yada yada yada… Instead, please take a second and take the following poll.Â
