Excerpts from article:
...After months of the Democrats behaving as if John Bolton's testimony would have somehow been the nail-in-the-coffin in President Trump's impeachment trial, the former national security adviser finally broke his silence to disabuse people of that notion.
...Speaking at Vanderbilt University this week, Bolton said that impeachment efforts against Trump were "Grossly partisan," while clarifying that his testimony would not have altered the president's acquittal in the Senate.
...The leak prompted Senate Democrats to demand that Bolton be called to testify in the impeachment trial, which Republicans blocked from happening.
...Though Bolton said he did not expect to have his testimony stopped, he ultimately believed it would have made no difference.
..."For all the focus on Ukraine and the impeachment trial and all that, to me, there are portions of the manuscript that deal with Ukraine, I view that like the sprinkles on the ice cream sundae in terms of what's in the book," Bolton told the audience.
