During a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday, former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski would not give Democrats an inch, balking at their questions about President Trump’s alleged attempts to obstruct special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.
“The White House has directed me not to disclose the substance of any discussions with the President or his advisors to protect executive branch confidentiality.”
If someone outside the administration - like Lewandowski - has a conversation with Trump or anyone else in the administration, there is no fucking confidentiality (unless Corey is his lawyer or doctor).
Fuck him. Prosecute the little prick for contempt for not answering questions in response to the subpoena.
Note how he has little regard for any institution in the country, it’s just being subservient to his dear leader. You wonder what his civics and government classes were like.
Lewandowski is nothing more than the culmination of 40 odd years of ignorant entitled bro culture gleaned from Alex P. Keaton to Art of the deal, talk radio and reality television.
Once the questioning got underway, Lewandowski, for the most, kept his temperament mild as he repeatedly delivered back to the committee the gag order the White House had put him under:
Though it would have been out of character for Chairman Nadler, it would have been nice to see Lewanadowski drawn out of his comfort zone.
That happened before under Reagan maybe? I think the ruling was that CA, as long as it met the Federal standards, could tack on more stringent ones owing to the need to mitigate poor AQ in much of CA. Also states rights.
