Of course they would. Nobody can even pronounce, let alone spell, emolulomonuments emololololoumunts emolients emoluments, so how can you expect them to follow that.

My skin is as soft as Santa’s since I bought me some Emoluments Clause.

This is true. Congress has to pass a LOT of laws post-Trump and major political parties have to enact new guidelines on tax returns and prohibitions on candidates that are known heads of minor, not necessarily successful, crime families.

The peanut gallery marveling “can’t believe he is rolling in here at five to nine”, and “Gerald Nadler is in the back, haha” and “where is everybody” after the 5:30 mark is a fun warm-up act.
Peloisi: holla Massachusetts! Also Elijah Cummings mention - oh, now Nadler is speaking and is not the mumbling Mr. Magoo from yesterday during the Collings (? don’t care) exchanges. They must have pumped him with coffee and want to get this over with before the caffeine wear off.
“It’s rarely been done”
“I can do whatever I want, wait to be charged and fight it out in court till I get the right judge.”

I think House Dems have had three years to find the best ways to characterize the brazen lawlessness that’s been the essence of the Trump admin since inauguration day. And I suspect they’re gonna deploy those phrases at key moments.
Before this is all over, I expect pithy barbs about Trump and the way he “runs” things. I’m optimistic that Dems are going to reveal that they’ve been on the exact same page with us for three years and that they’ve viewed Trump’s decisions and actions with the same mix of horror and disbelief.

Nance did a Number last week. She came out and said that this fucker is planning to steal the 2020 election.
If she can sell that to the Public, that would be a helluva barb:
“This guy has no intention of making anyone’s vote count except Republican votes. Are you WITH that, America?”
If “America” is “with that”, then I have been in the wrong place for quite a while.
