the whistler blower isn't accusing Trump of anything... he hasn’t even been accused yet. There is an inquiry going on. If articles of impeachment are filed then the Dems would be accusing Trump based on their findings. At that point trump will have a right to face his accusers and there will be a trail held in the senate. That’s how it works.No....since he supposedly started this whole farce of an impeachment....and isn't the president, like ordinary people who are accused of a crime, get to confront he/her face to face!I don’t understand why anybody cares about the whistler blower? Everybody knows Trump is just looking for people to attack... somebody to use to distract and discredit from the impeachment. If the dems feel like they have enough evidence and don’t want to subject the whistleblower to the Trump scrutiny machine then that’s understandable, isn’t it?The anonymous whistleblower who is at the center of impeachment inquiry is quietly slipping into the sidelines as Democrats say the individual’s testimony is no longer necessary.
Meanwhile, Republicans have raised concerns over the lack of testimony from the whistleblower, saying that the individual’s testimony is required to ensure due process and fairness.
The Washington Post reported on Thursday that several Democrats have said that they no longer need to hear from the whistleblower because they have gathered enough information from recent depositions obtained in secret hearings to back allegations against President Donald Trump.
The report also said, citing a person familiar with the House investigation, that there are no active efforts to bring in the whistleblower before lawmakers.
The whistleblower filed a complaint in August (pdf) accusing the president of pressuring Ukraine to investigate a political opponent during a call in July. The allegations prompted the House to launch an impeachment inquiry on Sept. 24 to probe for any wrongdoing on the part of the president. The Democrat-led inquiry has attracted intense criticism for its process, in particular, its use of secret closed-door hearings and selective leaks of witness testimony.

Have no fear. The Whistleblower will be brought out, again, and again whenever it is deemed useful by the Democrats. For now it is too risky to have him testify against the transcript, because some minor discrepancy might be found. However the Democrats will always be able to refer to him or her, and dredge up the emotional impact.
