It's nearing time to subpoena Trump and get his ass out the door.

US v Nixon
Clinton V Jones

"it is not known ever to have been doubted but that the chief magistrate of a state might be served with a subpoena." John Marshall when saying that Jefferson could be subpoenaed and has to testify.

It was about two weeks after the court ruled on the Nixon subpoena that Nixon stepped down.

Trump cannot testify. He will have to refuse. He is not competent enough to testify.

Time to issue the subpoena so we can get the ball rolling though the courts.

He'd perjure himself a dozen times in his first response to questioning. He simply cannot speak without lying perpetually. I don't even think he recognizes the difference between truth and falsehoods.

I think the tiny man in Russia isn't done playing with America and crazy GOP Trumpers.

My prediction...eventually the Senate will vote to not convict trump....the next election trump wins again because our voting system is rigged by that tiny man in Russia. We get 4 more years of trump and everyone doesn't have a problem with it. Eventually, trump becomes a dictator and we have no democracy.......But we all still get to be capitalists.

It's all about capitalism killing our democracy and our planet. And fat Trump and tiny Putin are just 2 of the enablers.

supporters, in and out of government, and when it's time for tRUMP to go he'll go down hard in an
easy way. Or maybe he'll resign...
