Donald Trump Jr. unlikely to appear before Senate Intelligence Committee: source
NY Post ^ | May 10, 2019 | Joe Tacopino

Trump Jr. is deciding whether to comply with a subpoena from the committee — which is investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election — but the source said the president’s eldest child is more likely to work out a compromise to avoid the public scrutiny.

“There’s no way the president’s son is going to appear before a committee and get questioned at a hearing by Democratic candidates running for president,” said a Republican insider with ties to the White House.

“We’re in an election cycle. There’s no logical basis to call Don in.”

The two Democratic presidential hopefuls on the Intelligence Committee are Sens. Kamala Harris (D- Calif.) and Michael Bennet (D-Colo.).

Trump Jr., however, may offer the committee a compromise and submit answers in writing instead of appearing in person, the source said.

The subpoena of the Trump family member has caused outrage among Republicans who believe the move is a political stunt.

A total of six Republican senators have criticized the committee head, Richard Burr (R-NC), for agreeing to issue the subpoena.

“We’re drawing battle lines: If you touch Don, we’ll come after you,” a Trump ally told Axios. “And our base will come after you.”

The six GOP senators criticizing Burr are John Cornyn and Ted Cruz of Texas, Steve Daines of Montana, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Rand Paul of Kentucky and Thom Tillis of North Carolina.

The Russia investigation is over. After 2 years of Dem & media hysteria, after millions of dollars, after 2800 subpoenas, the Mueller Report found NO collusion. There’s no need for another subpoena for @DonaldJTrumpJr It’s time to move on & focus on issues Americans care about.— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) May 9, 2019

Hey Richard,

Have you ever seen a grown man naked?

Ever hang around the gymnasium?

Richard, do you like movies about gladiators?

If I was Don’s lawyer I’d tell him to take the 5th and tell the Dem’s to go pound sand. There is no way I’d let a client appear in front of a committee looking for a lynching.

Burr was given an offer he couldn’t refuse.
