John Bolton withheld an 'astonishing' amount of information relevant to Trump impeachment, U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff writes in USA TODAY Opinion

, at one point begging China’s President Xi Jinping for assistance and apparently offering trade concessions to get it.

According to Bolton, Trump also undermined the values of our country by telling Xi that not only was it appropriate for the Chinese leaderin concentration camps but that it was the right thing to do. This is a stunning betrayal of everything America stands for and can only be understood in the context of Trump’s desperation to secure China’s help for his reelection.

Most damning, though, is Bolton’s confirmation of our central charge during Trump’s impeachment — that the country could not trust Donald Trump to do what’s right for the United States, but only what was right for Donald Trump.: “I am hard-pressed to identify any significant Trump decision during my tenure that wasn't driven by re-election calculations.”

Given his damning portrait of a dangerously out-of-control U.S. president, and the astonishing degree to which Bolton possessed evidence directly relevant to our impeachment investigation, what are we to make of until he could profit from it? Only this, that John Bolton is no patriot. To the same extent and in the same degree in which he condemns Trump, Bolton indicts himself for putting profit above patriotism.Thankfully, there were true patriots on Bolton’s staff and elsewhere in the government that told Congress what they knew when asked by the House to testify about Trump’s corrupt scheme. They did the right thing, sometimes at significant personal and professional cost. Lt. Col.

Benedict Bolton. Hope all profits r clawed back & he is prosecuted.

John Bolton should be investigated to see if info he withheld from Congress is indictable.

defundAdamSchiff useless carrer polititian who’s job is to waste our time accusing the president which has resulted in failure after failure.

From a book written by a fired employee. You just gotta love where Schiff gets his garbage. Gotta love it that had to regurgitate it.

Yup.

Adam Schiff is a habitual liar and has no credibility.

Self interest 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝗺𝐩𝐞𝐝 love of country & became all the rage.🥴

Yeah I’m not reading Bolton’s book!

Maybe because he is lying

RepAdamSchiff Great points but no one in the GOP/House voted to convict either. They must be held accountable too. Only 1 GOP member votes to convict on all the evidence. It was MittRomney only.

🤡

Regarding Bolton I will never believe a word he said since he admitted he went into the position with the plan to write a book. That means he most likely made shit up just to sell his book.

And Schiff lied so much over the past 3.5 years he should be censured and forced out if office.

Leave the country Schiff, we're tired of your lies.

What a clown.

Schiff the liar

Would not have made a difference. The Senate tries the POTUS. C the problem there?

Bolton is a liar. Hes a traitor for even writing that book. His shit will be proven BS just like Mueller, Cohen, Impeachment, Corona Virus “pandemic” and every other lie the Liarcrats throw at Trump! Nothing can bring Trump down! BigEarl89408763

Waaa waaa waaah cry the losers

Put Bolton in prison

Does saying and writing “fake news” whenever you (Trumpeters) disagree with all things negative about 45 make you feel better? Do you really believe it or does it stave off the guilt of following this train-wreck? Had Bolton testified, nothing would be different than it is.

He can still make this right.

can we drop the pretense that these people are about public service when they are clearly about self-enrichment and acquiring access to more power? that goes for trump, biden, pelosi, mcconnell and the other wicked sprites beneath them. America is a failed state. Act accordingly.

Nope, its big problems to lie under oath. Easier to lie in a book

How sad this little man is. Even worse is the fake news media.

Bolton put Party before Country. THAT is why he did not testify in the impeachment hearings. Another traitor who thinks that ratting out the crime boss will buy him favor. Not with me.
