“I’d fight it tooth and nail,” he told the Post"
With no spine, no soul.
Well let’s hope it’s WHEN subpoenas arrive not IF
Bring it on, bitches…
You asked for this, Donnie.
I question what path Dems need to take heading into the 2020 Prez contest to put themselves in the best position to win. Buffeting Trump from all sides with subpoenas and hearings will dominate the news, nearly to the exclusion of all other events, especially factoring in the noisy, combative counter measures Trump will deploy in response. Anything positive Dems do will be drowned out. Substantive achievements on the legislative front are all but impossible, so no victories are forthcoming there to brag about. They have zilch to say about foreign policy, at least so far as bending it their direction with any success.
Is proclaiming “For the last two years we’ve investigated Trump and fought him at every turn” enough to win the election? It better be, because I see little else they’ll have to hang their hat on.
For someone who claims to be innocent this seems like a lot work, and a lot of unnecessary pay to lawyers. His supporters are the same ones who said of Obama, “He should just release his birth certificate, why is he resisting?” Anyway, who is paying for all of trump’s lawyers?
If he’s making it an Executive privilege fight you are.
The result of Trump “resisting” subpoenas (who cares how many?)…
No country…Not ours anyway.
It’s not much more than a lot of hyperventilating nationalism anyway. We eat the poor and shit carbon dioxide, pretty much our two main activities. Good riddance.
I don’t think that formula is going to work as a strategy to win the White House. An enormous amount of energy and time has been already spent, with very little to show for it, and the endless retractions surrounding RussiaGate have just made Trump stronger with his base, who now are more suspicious of the media than ever. Pity.
So billing separations must be a headache for someone because isn’t the RNC covering some of the legal expenses for certain things? And then there’s the Trump Inaugural Committee and all that money that was clearly not spent on entertainment. So where did the money go?
Irony alert. Saw this from Rudy in a Nat Geo show:

Until now, Rudy, until now. And you’re part of it.
Yeah, teeth and nails aren’t very dangerous when they’re affixed to a pile of jello.
WH Preps To Resist Dem Inquiries,
If a party fails to comply, the committee must hold the non-complying party in contempt (majority of committee members). To enforce they must then 1) have the sergeant-at-arms haul the person before the committee, 2) refer the case to Jessie Kong Liu, or 3) go to federal district court and file a civil action for contempt. Given the impracticalities of 1 and 3, Jessie Kong Liu is just about the most interesting person in DC at the moment. Is it too early to start speaking of Queen Kong?
He is an empty shell. He only has power because they give him power.He has no redeeming character traits that inspire loyalty or awe. Why do these people stick with him?
Fear of losing power. That’s why they gave him the nomination in the first place. It was pretty damn clear who he was from the very beginning.
