How incompetent is Donald Trump? Interview with John Bolton | Conflict Zone

I get the distinct impression that Bolton is lying about the bounty briefing matter. The point is, if this kind of potentially explosive political material came across your desk, in a PDB, assuming you were qualified to get it, then you had to make a quick effort to determine how to answer/handle this information when it eventually became a matter of public knowledge as it most certainly would.  No one but the President could give direction on it.

Give us a break Mr. Bolton, the Democrats didn't politicize the impeachment, they had evidence sufficient to prove the case!  Had they move without insufficient evidence to prove the case being made, then yes, that would have been making it political.  But, even the Senators, Mitch and many others admitted that the impeachment managers had made their case, even without your help which would have been even more devastating.  No, you're seeking to remain in the parties good graces by withholding your evidence, country be damned.  We know who you are and we saw what you did.
