Trump Lawyer Jay Sekulow Argues John Bolton's Book 'Inadmissible' In Senate Trial

WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump’s defense team argued on Tuesday that former national security adviser John Bolton’s bombshell book manuscript should be kept out of the Senate impeachment trial.

The unpublished manuscript essentially confirms the main charge against Trump, according to The New York Times. But Trump’s attorneys contend that even if the account were true, it would not merit the removal of a president during an election year.

“You can’t impeach the president on an unsourced allegation,” Jay Sekulow, one of Trump’s personal lawyers, told senators on Tuesday, calling the manuscript of the upcoming book “inadmissible.”

Bolton’s book alleges that Trump tied the release of congressionally approved Ukraine aid to the Ukranian government’s opening investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter. The news about the manuscript, first described by The New York Times over the weekend, caught Senate Republicans by surprise, upping the pressure on them to allow witnesses such as Bolton and other documents to be presented during the trial.
