6. That is the best case scenario
Tue Sep 24, 2019, 07:01 PM
Sep 2019

No matter what the Whistleblower transcript says (we can't trust it's not altered with big swaths of it crossed out in Sharpie with new text added in), democrats are going to get the actual Whistleblower, and the repubs know it's bad news for Trump. There's a saying that when it comes to their candidates/presidents, democrats fall in love, and republicans fall in line, but republicans also are very willing to throw someone from their side under the bus if it means their continued survival.

At least I hope that's what the scenario is.
