(11,096 posts)43. I perceive we are in the minority here.
I am not interested in a pollyannish "high road." My interest is the rule of law. If no one is above the law, then everyone is subject to the law. Adherence to core principles means doing the right thing even when it is inconvenient or unpopular.
If I were to vote in a presidential

You surprised me. When a reply was posted so quickly, I was expecting a good flaming.

I do not want to end up in the muck and taint of all that is wrong with Republicans.

So instead Biden says he will ignore the subpoena? Not different than republicans that did that.

Biden ignoring the subpoena would equally be playing in their trap and validating their own choices.

So, he would be defying a subpoena because he calls it a sham, ignoring law, rule or procedure?

Good for Biden! Don't allow Trump to muddy the waters of his own criminal conduct.

It would be an unequalled free spotlight to sell himself as Trump's replacement.
