Is Trump making a strategic error

it fighting Congressional subpoenas? By dragging out the process, he is delaying the revelation of any damaging information until closer to the election. Wouldn't it be better to let everything come out now rather than a year from now right in the middle of 2020. Letting the dirt come out now, would allow time for it all to be forgotten for the most part. By delaying and it comes out a little at a time over the next year to 18 months will make it all an election issue. Remember the Comey letter, if that had come out 2 months, rather than 10 days, before the election, Clinton could have recovered from it better.

When Republicans subpoenaed Obama for Fast and Furious records it took 3 1/2 years.

Trump's defying Congress, acting like a DICKtator is going to continue to dominate the election.

If Trump wants a fight, he is going to get one, county by county, fact for fact, vote for vote.
