Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell made sure that Republicans voted to block all new witnesses and evidence in the impeachment trial of Donald Trump because he knew that an upcoming book by former National Security Adviser John Bolton would incriminate Trump. That is the conclusion drawn by former George W. Bush administration official Nicole Wallace, now an MSNBC host, posting to her Twitter account on Sunday.
As The Inquisitr reported earlier on Sunday, a privately circulated draft of Bolton’s book manuscript is said to contain details of a meeting at which Trump told Bolton that he directly conditioned his withholding of military aid to Ukraine on that country’s willingness to open an investigation into Democratic 2020 presidential frontrunner Joe Biden.
