Three things about the Witkoff tapes:
1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.
2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.
3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

I agree that performative moral preening needs to go, but what Carville is recommending is just "it's the economy, stupid" with a Bernie coat of paint.
He hasn't been relevant in a quarter-century for a reason.
