Several Senate Republicans I've spoken with in the last hour are stunned that the WH is releasing this transcript. They do not think it helps the president's cause. And they expect today's Senate GOP lunch to be quite the get-together.

(8,900 posts)Daily Koz is reporting that the White House sent out a list of their "Talking Points" on the matter to all the Repubs in the House and Senate.............
The aide accidentally? sent the list to all the Dem's instead.........

I don't understand this noise over the transcript. Are they just outraged at his stupidity at so easily providing evidence? ADDENDUM: Just read that Trump, the masterful dealer, thought he'd handled Pelosi and sent the transcript over, against advice of aides, as a gesture of fake bad faith to placate her/Dems.
I'd love to be a fly on the wall of that lunch, all right, but for how long? Republicans hot-airing the lies that have become their reality always gets old very fast.
