Bolton’s blockbuster book wasn’t enough to extend the Trump impeachment trial, so Democrats offered impassioned argument to support the doomed mission of convincing twenty GOP senators to say “You’re Fired!” The trial had high drama, from Chuck Schumer trying to convince the Chief Justice to break a tie, to Jerry Nadler beating Adam Schiff in a footrace to the podium for the Democrats’ last word. Now the waiting game: Will Democrats pay the price for insisting on a trial, in the form of an energized GOP base storming into November? Or, will trial-induced doubts about Trump combine with his historically low ratings – he’s the only president in the history of the Gallup Poll to fail to reach 50% approval -- lead to an election win for the Dems?
