This is the essence of our democracy/republic. Trump is not above the law.... I believe that some, (I said some) republicans will be there when it comes time to get rid of Trump. What Schiff has written is beyond discussion. It is the roots of our entire system.

When the time comes, there will be some republicans who will be on the side of the "law" So why haven't we heard of them yet? It isn't time. When that crucial vote comes, some will be there. Some were there to vote against the destruction of Obamacare and some will be there for the downfall of Trump. The vote will be the vote.. We are not close to ..."the vote" When we get to "the vote" some will be there, because a few believe in the ..."rule of law"...When will the vote be?...I don't know..What will be the specific issue? I don't know..We will all see what happens when we get there.. Perhaps we will get there soon. Hopefully, we will all see the results as soon as it becomes obvious.
