I thought Trump blocked it using Executive Privlege, which is well within his rights.
No he didn't. That is not true at all. He told the Executive to ignore all subpoenas regardless of whether the information sought could be covered by executive privilege. That is not remotely the same as exerting executive privilege.
I will never understand how any party, especially the right can claim impeachment is to overturn an election. If that was the case, impeachment won't exists. Trump is the most corrupt president in history.
I wouldn't be surprised. But strategically it may not be a wise thing for Trump to do.
CNN and MSNBC are latching onto this Bolton story like it's the biggest bombshell of the century. They are such gullible folks--anything anti-Trump. It's laughable....AND they are helping Bolton's book sales. They are so quick to follow that carrot on a string. LOL
This Bolton book buzz will fizzle away in another 1-2 months, and that's being generous.
I'd say 1-2 weeks. It will begin to die down as soon as Trump's acquitted. Bolton may wind up working for CNN. I wish he'd take Judge Napalitano with him.

Pffft.
Continue your trump worship if you must but don't try and convince us that you are a LIBERAL democrat.
I repeat the challenge I have made elsewhere. Though I am now working in NYC rather than White Plains, I invite you to meet on the corner of Quarropas and Court Street in White Plains at a fixed time and date. We will walk into the Westchester County Board of Elections, and I will prove that I am a registered Democrat, having been one since 1975. And as far as my liberal credentials, see Post 1 and Post 2. Or Post 3 or Post 4.
Also, I can self-identify as any ideology or creature I want. At the moment I self-identify as a transexual Labrador Retriever, and poop and pee anywhere, including in public, at will, and I support Rashida Tlaib for President!

He must have done that because the Dems were not following customary protocols. Good for him! He'll be cleared any day now.

Our bureaucracy and media are infected with politically disngenuous Neocons.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., signaled in a tweet that he will not call Bolton again in the House, writing that “the Senate must allow testimony from him, Mulvaney and others.”
Schiff had invited Bolton to testify in the inquiry but did not subpoena him, saying he didn't want the impeachment case to languish in the courts. Instead, the House voted to impeach Trump for obstruction of Congress.
So it never got to the executive privilege level. He just didn't do it.

Now you're just making stuff up out of whole cloth.
