They are debating contempt of congress for his failure to appear before them. And he's in the audience, ready to talk to them. Nancy Mace just asked him a question and he's not allowed to answer it.
You just can't make this stuff up! |
Wait what? |
Has anyone asked them about Trump’s emoluments violations? |
Exactly what I said. He's in the audience as they debate whether to censure him for not appearing under subpoena. Now Marjorie Taylor Greene is ranting about January 6. CSPAN has become the new comedy central. https://www.c-span.org/video/?532775-1/committee-debates-resolution-hold-hunter-biden-contempt-congress&live |
No wonder so many senior Republicans are quitting. I couldn't deal with that either.
What stupidity. |
I'm in Indiana - four of our seven Republicans in Congress aren't running for re-election. |
So what? They will be replaced by four MAGA deplorables. |
Oh definitely. My state is a dysfunctional political shit hole. I was just agreeing with the PP who noted the number of Republicans who are quitting Congress. |
He had his chance to speak before, but he decided to stage a circus outside. Now he can face the consequences or continue to hide in the White House with daddy. |
I have had this hearing on in the background all morning. The GOP are simply nuts.
Rep Donalds admitted Trump's violation of Emoluments like it is no big deal. Can you imagine if Jimmy Carter hadn't put his farm in trust? Or if Ronald Reagan had acted in a movie or two while in office? We have fallen so far. |
He is willing to testify in open committee. The GOP doesn't want that because they won't be able to lie about his testimony to the right wing echo chamber. Why won't the GOP let him testify in open committee? There is no reason for it, and when asked by the left, no GOP member has been able to answer the question. |
He was willing to speak before all of Congress, then and now, as Comer has been asking him to for a year. |
Point taken but if I recall correctly, Carter actually sold his peanut farm. Trump put all of his businesses in to a bullsh!t not at all blind trust, and then adjusted the trust. A few months later to make sure he could take cash payments from it. |
Exactly. |
