I'm pretty sure that the American public is "on to" this ploy. People just repeating the same thing, over and over, has been around the block a few times. Hardly anyone still falls for it.
I don't think you understand when to use phrases like the bolded.
Additionally I don't think you realize that most cases don't have single smoking gun. They're built on several independent lines of evidence from multiple sources that corroborate the story. If Bolton comes out and says "Trump told me he was doing this to help his election" that can come in because it's an admission against interest. At the very least everybody should be fine with more witnesses coming in and testifying. At best it's super suspicious that Trump has blocked everybody with direct knowledge from testifying.
