Some Trump campaign officials, WH aides, and GOP lawmakers were "blindsided" by Sondland testimony and "freaking out" earlier today, sources tell @sarahcwestwood and me. One source said Sondland's testimony was "really bizarre," adding he was throwing top officials under the bus.— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) November 20, 2019
This only makes sense when you realize they've locked down almost every witness with first hand knowledge of this matter, closeted all the documents, and think by doing so they are safe. They are "blindsided" because their crude defense didn't work, and because the Dems in Congress didn't play ball by fighting every subpoena for records and witnesses in court, individually, until November of next year.
The White House thought it had corralled the narrative. They were "blindsided" to find out they couldn't be more wrong.
And remember: Trump is the White House's "war room."
