What will Trump's lawyers say tomorrow?

What are they going to do? Stick with the script? They will subject themselves to ridicule. They can’t call Bolton a liar, that would only demand his testimony. McConnell had to know about this. That was why he was gunning to end this by Friday, he was racing against the clock now known as Bolton’s book. Frankly, I think they’re fucked.

For those planning on not watching tomorrow might want to reconsider.

worth watching. I expect them to commence with the yelling, starting at 11 and going louder from there.

I think I'll get really buzzed so I can get a good laugh out of it for a while. I hope I don't ruin my dinner from all the popcorn I'll be eating.

....Bolton never objected.

...He's just trying to sell more books.

...read he transcript.

...etc.

They are trying to minimize it, they can't dispute it...but they can try to pass it off as nothing.

Other than that, they will kiss and cover Trump's taint while knowingly lying to Congress and the American people, getting as close as possible to literally wiping their asses with the Constitution.

Their credibility is not an issue.
Only their loyalty to Trukp.

Will deny, deny , deny, them accuse and threaten Bolton. Trump, one who can keep his mouth shut , will again openly make a fool of himself. Senators need to realize the damaging information is going to continue, and get much worse, and include many others , making them look like they conspired, which they are.

They have no facts, no truth, only partisan rw lies and that could be sufficient for the Senate Russian Repugs because they don't care. They don't care about the country, they don't care about our laws, they don't care for the working class or poor, they only care for power and profit for themelves first and other rw oligarchs 2nd.
