10. but what they don't realize

is the defense will make them testify, and the case will fall apart under questioning.. Then comes the fun - after Hunter is declared innocent of charges, he can then turn around and file a civil suit against the principles. So the GOP has to get a conviction to avoid that. At best they will get a hung jury.

I think the Hunter team is coming in loaded for bear. My bet is the GOP will try to stop proceedings once they are exposed, to stop Hunter's lawyers from exposing more GOP liars. The hidden point is all of the GOP's witnesses here have financially benefited from their statements. But it is one thing to make a statement in public, and another to repeat on the stand, and risk perjury and destroying the entire sham.. And giving Hunter more grounds for a successful civil suit.
