I didn’t think about that. Congress has no authority to subpoena a President for anything that occurred during his presidency.
Impeachment is the House’s recourse against a sitting President (or even after he’s left office, I guess). They tried and failed to convict him. Subpoenaing him to a committee is a clear violation of the Separation of Powers.
A court should quickly throw this out if it follows the Constitution.
“Subpoenaing him to a committee is a clear violation of the Separation of Powers.”
I am not so sure of that. Trump is an ex-President all right but his status right now is that of a private citizen. Private citizens have been compelled to testify before Congress.
They’ll turn and twist it.
“If he has nothing to hide, why wouldn’t he clear this up once and for all in front of this committee?
The American people have to know”
