The latest 8 page output from the White house takes it to a new low. Trump telling Congress it's not their job. Hilarious.
In a letter to House leaders, White House counsel Pat Cipollone wrote that House Democrats’ recent actions violate “the Constitution, the rule of law, and every past precedent.” He criticized the impeachment inquiry as attempt to overturn the 2016 presidential election results and to influence the upcoming 2020 campaign.
“In order to fulfill his duties to the American people, the Constitution, the Executive Branch, and all future occupants of the Office of the Presidency, President Trump and his Administration cannot participate in your partisan and unconstitutional inquiry under these circumstances,” Cipollone wrote.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has said repeatedly that the House does not have to hold a formal vote ot launch an impeachment inquiry.Last edited by rah; October 8, 2019, 17:22.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit.

While I would expect a very partisan ruling, it might look real bad to rule that way. But then we're talking the Kav.

How do you claim that the house doesn't have the authority specified in the constitution?It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

Myself, I believe that the House Ds have been involved in a soft coup since they took power.Originally posted by rah View PostWhile I would expect a very partisan ruling, it might look real bad to rule that way. But then we're talking the Kav.

This shows Trump's desperation. I think he loses this one. The house is supposed to be a check on the president and the senate is supposed to be a check on the house in these circumstances. It will be hard to argue otherwise. Do you want to bet on this one?It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

Republicans laugh at that talking point. The entire legislative branch is a check on the President, not the majority of the House. But the press never calls them on that lie.Originally posted by rah View PostThis shows Trump's desperation. I think he loses this one.

I might bet. I want to see the President's whole argument. So far I've just read an article on the letter. They claim the D's are trying to overturn the election. I would go even further and say they are trying to use their power to hurt the President in 2020, and they have prevented the President from performing his duties.Originally posted by rah View PostI'm betting that the impeachment inquiry will not be ruled unconstitutional.
