The rats are screwed. Trapped in a cage and screwed.
Trump's team doesn't need to say "The Whistleblower is...." They can now just expose the corrupt origins of the story, and state that Vindman was one of the "three best bros" on the NSC. Vindman stayed and heard the call, then passed his fake "demands" version to CIAramella and Misko, who had gone to work for Schiff, along with another ex-NSC staffer, Abby Grace. All of they are left-wing SJW globalist moles.
