Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., Tuesday called on former national security adviser John Bolton to hold a press conference to expand on a New York Times bombshell report that claimed Bolton wrote in his upcoming book that President Trump explicitly tied $391 million in Ukrainian military aid to investigating the Bidens.
“John, you’ve kind of thrown the country into a ditch here,” Graham told Fox News' Martha MacCallum. “Just come forward and say what’s on your mind, hold a news conference and we’ll consider what you’ve got to say if you think it’s that important."...
He added that even if what Bolton said Trump did was true it wouldn’t be an impeachable offense.

What's wrong with you. Both Lindsay and Bolton are the good guys.
There are plenty of Dems to go after.
As far as the book....There's no way Bolton would undermine the Presidency of the United States or the Office of the President. Get into the history of the man.
Absolutely correct! They are complicit in the attempted takedown of Trump and America and conspirators like Romney need to be destroyed.
Jerk Bolton is enjoying his 15 minutes too much. If he was going to do something outside the Senate, he would have done it by now.
He wants his Christine Ford moment.
This is whistleblower 2.0. Democrat and stooge media rumor mongering about what might be in an unreleased book. Put the bastard under oath and we’ll get “I assumed, I thought, and damn the president, he didn’t do what I told him to do”. Vindman with a shaving brush stuck up his nose. If the RINO snakes in the senate allow the president to call even one witness, this will be a plus for Trump’s defense.
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/28/opinion/john-bolton-book-trump.html is their latest ‘reveal.
:: Then when they see the leak, they frogmarch a guy out of the whitehouse (like last Friday). ::
The leaker is not in the WH so no frog-march.

Nah - Lindsey is throwing down the gauntlet...there’s things Bolton can legally say and tings he can’t due to his signed agreements for taking/leaving the job...Lindsey is daring him...
“Shut up, Lindsey. A press conference is no more testimony than is the hearsay we’ve already got.”
But it would be fun to watch.
Lindsey Grahamesty is one big snake in the grass and that is not a real Republican and does not truly support our Republican President. Don’t forget either that he was Juan McCain’s best butt buddy for many years and we all know how much McCain supported Trump or even his party.
Trump can exert executive privilege over that just as he could over testimony.
John, you’ve kind of thrown the country into a ditch here,” Graham told Fox News’ Martha MacCallum
B$LLSH@T,
The NEW YORK TIMES did with a FAKE article using made up “quotes” by an “anonymous” source, about a book NOBODY has seen yet.
The ONLY witnessw3es that should be called at this point is the New York Times Writer, and She should be forced to reveal her source or be Put in JAIL: for Contempt, then the “anonymous source” can Testify in front of the whole world, or be put in JAIL for contempt with the presstitute.
Lindsay is extrememly concerned about calling witnesses to the impeachment trial. Bolton doesn’t concern him so much but with Bolton would be Hunter Biden and others and that would create a crisis (maybe even cry sis) for Graham. I think Lindsay’s about to pee himself.

Did the NYT force Bolton to take hire Comey’s agent, take piles of Democrat cash and write a book now? Send that book to the NSC for classification? Go AWOL while Fake News used his name to assault a POTUS under a Stalinist impeachment? No, No, No.
Bolton could easily clear the air here and support POTUS. That he has not is all you need to know about his motivations.
Bolton is tossing his MAGA supporters under the bus. Hannity was apoplectic on his show last night.
Bolton has obviously calculated that he will still have a home on fox daytime and the neocon beltway chitlin circuit despite now playing for Team Never Trump.
.....SQUIRREL........
Good advice that does not preclude getting more from Bolton later.
