After President Trump said Friday he is “100 percent” willing to testify under oath about the events that led to firing James Comey as FBI director, a House Democrat wants to take him up on it.
Within hours of Trump’s statement at a press conference in the White House Rose Garden, Rep. Luis Gutierrez
(D-Ill.) called on House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte
(R-Va.) to invite the president before their panel.

Ping...
Not going to happen.
What’s it going to take to bring this witch hunt to an end?
All the underlying reasons have been thoroughly debunked so it’s time to wrap things up and move on to the investigations into Illary’s felonies and 0bama’s role in Fast and Furious and other scandals that MSLSD doesn’t seem to know about.
I think Trump was talking about testifying to Mueller...not the clowns in the House.
Don’t. Do. It. Any mistake, and the Dems/CNN will start impeachment.
Problem with his taking this reporter’s bait is it gives them cause to russia russia russia for the next month.
Doesn’t Congress have some budgeting to do?
Did the Democrats win the majority while I was napping?
Shove it. The executive branch is co-equal, not subservient to, the legislative. Cram it hard and deep libs.
This better not happen.
I agree...
No. Pres.Trump did nothing wrong. He should not be forced to perform for the Democrats and their media as they try their best to get him to screw up. Contact Rep. Goodlatte and tell him this is a BAD idea.
“What is it going to take to bring this witch hunt to an end?”
1) Impeachment
2) Assassination
3) The arrest of Congress by a Marine Expeditionary Unit

The President doesn’t get grilled by a bunch of partisan goons
Trump should just learn to say to every request from the pirannahs “talk to my lawyer. I am all for it, but I will follow his advice. Give them no where to go.
Door #3
They are not firing on all cylinders and won't be, they and their ‘queen’ are having a mental breakdown...and we are watching them...
President Trump isn't afraid, he has his bases covered, he knew what he was getting into when he started running, he's been planning this for a long time, and watching what is going on, who is who and what is what...oh he knows everything...about everybody...and they know he knows, and now that Comey is gone, they have no protection...they are scared to death...
Remember today President Trump's attorney filed three cases against Comey, he doesn't know what they have, who knows what and who has talked to who...
Just where we want them, running scared...I don't worry about President Trump, he has dealt with much worse in his business...
NO!
Don’t do it Mr President, don’t give them the satisfaction of questioning you. You are the President, they can’t change it...let them sit and spin.
Is that the call for Trump to testify under oath came before the reporter offered the bait.
Following former FBI director James Comey's explosive testimony Thursday, one Democratic senator is calling for President Donald Trump to answer the law enforcement official's accusations by testifying under oath before Congress. ...[Connecticut Senator Chris] Murphy's statement read. "If the White House's account differs from what we heard today, the American people deserve to hear the president's side of the story in a similar forum--under oath and open to the press."
To date, only three sitting presidents and one vice president have ever offered testimony to congressional committees, with Gerald Ford being the last, in October 1974. He was called to explain the reasoning behind pardoning Richard Nixon.
