Re: The Dept of Justice is supposed to follow the law.
There is no lawful reason to request Pres. Trump’s tax returns.
I agree.
But why would President Trump ask a federal Cabinet department that has done its very best to destroy him to defend him - on ANY issue?
Trump is wealthy. Why doesn’t he hire lawyers who believe in him and will passionately and relentlessly defend him?
I think because as a president, he needs to take actions as a president, not as an individual.
If he acted as an individual, they would want to impeach him for that.
But I am sure he has the best advisors.
He just has too many vicious enemies too, unfortunately.
