See above. Trump will never do it. He’d rather fall on his sword and scream about how the FBI’s Secret Society in unfairly out to get him. With cover from a unexplainablly friendly Congress, he will get away with it. |
He won't have a choice. |
And I think that if he is proven guilty of treason, that is reason enough to undo as much as is legally possible. It is arguably the only ethical thing to do, especially if it is proven that votes were changed. I’m not a lawyer, I don’t claim to be one, but treason must not be rewarded. (And it's "whoa," by the way.) |
To quote Seinfeld: “this oughta be good." |
By saying he would answer Mueller’s questions under oath, Trump said he would face a grand jury, since interviews are not under oath. Hee! |
Who’s gonna stop him? |
Ty Cobb is already walking back Trump’s promise to talk to Mueller under oath. Must be hard counseling a genius who is smarter than you. |
Go back to ConLaw 1, you fake liberal lawyer. You must not have been paying attention in class. A few easy examples where you’re totally wrong: 1. There is no “criminal burden of proof” in impeachment. 2. The Constitutional standard of high crimes and misdemeanors isn’t referring to actual criminal activity. 3. There absolutely is a constitutional process to remove the judges; it’s called impeachment, and all it takes is a majority of votes in the House and 2/3 of votes in the Senate. All your bullshit about “we will never know” is totally irrelevant because this isn’t a court case but rather a political process. My advice: Less Law & Order, and more classroom time for you. “Liberal lawyer,” my flat ass. Go back to sucking up to Kirkland partners at the next Federalist Society meeting. |
The thing about talking to a grand jury it is done under supoena. So not optional. And I believe has been established that a sitting POTUS can be compelled to testify. It was, ummmm, let me think. Oh year. Jones v. Clinton. So you can thank Ken Starr for that one. Anyway, he can scream about the secret society or whatever. He can still be compelled to testify. |
Are you asking who is going to make him? The federal court enforcing the grand jury supoena would hold him in contempt. So— the US Marshals. Different branch of government from Trump. LEOs in no way, shape or form under his jurisdiction. You know checks and balances. |
It’s even harder counseling a stable genius. |
The US Marshals are part of the Department of Justice, which is the same branch of government as Trump and very much under his jurisdiction, although he is not supposed to politicize it. |
If Trump ignores a supoena that a federal judges declines to quash, that is an actual constitutional crisis. Not that I expect Trump to care about creating a constitutional crisis. |
And then what? |
Anybody know the name the reporter chick that kicked trumpy’s ass by getting him to practically demand that he b quesstioned under oath. Just listened to the transcript. Someone she buy her flowers. |
