A string of newly resurfaced video clips of former national security adviser John Bolton spurred President Trump and his supporters Wednesday to highlight what they described as serious credibility questions -- raised by both Democrats and Republicans -- amid the Senate impeachment trial, as the president tweeted, "GAME OVER!" In his tweet, Trump linked to an interview of Bolton in August 2019 where he discusses Ukraine policy. In the Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty interview clip, Bolton made no mention of any illicit quid pro quo, and acknowledged, as Republicans have claimed, that combating "corruption" in Ukraine was a "high priority" for the Trump administration. Bolton also called Trump's communications with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky "warm and cordial," without mentioning any misconduct. It seemingly contradicted reported assertions in Bolton's forthcoming book that Trump explicitly told him he wanted to tie military aid to Ukraine to an investigation into Joe and Hunter Biden. (Zelensky has said his communications with Trump involved no pressure for any investigation.)

This has been posted. It's top of the flagged.
And what Bolton says publically, while he still had a job with the administration...isn't worth much.
Trump can say game over all he likes and as much as all his supporters want to believe that - it isn't over.

RICH! This coming from an administration that glibly claims they have the right to lie to the press, and from a president who's lied more than 15,000 times during his presidency.
Get them both under oath, and then see what they say.

John Bolton volunteered to testify is subpoenaed. His attorney has advertised that Bolton has new, yet unrevealed first hand insight into the Ukraine issues.

The whole Bolton thing might just be a clever ruse.
Well, it sure has Trump in a tizzy!
