Obama, Holder, Lerner and others laughed at the House GOP...and NOTHING happened to them. The Dems are powerless to compel anything.

“Obama, Holder, Lerner and others laughed at the House GOP...and NOTHING happened to them. The Dems are powerless to compel anything.”

Democrat controlled committees in Congress will demand the IRS provide them with Trump’s tax returns. Federal law states Congress can request and review individual tax returns. If Trump tells the IRS not to release the returns the refusal will be article one in articles of impeachment.

If they are stonewalled on getting the tax returns from the IRS, the committee will immediately subpoena the returns from New York state where Trump files his state tax returns. New York, controlled by Democrats, will happily comply. Information from the returns will then be selectively released to the press by Democrat staff members. The press will have commentary by tax lawyers and accountants who will assert all kinds of illegal activity is taking place. If the Trump organization has received even one loan from a Russian financial institution or oligarch there will be a loud call for Trump’s impeachment for Russian collusion.

Republicans conducted show investigations of the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton. In the end those investigations resulted in no action. The Democrats are about to demonstrate the power of a concerted effort by one branch of Congress, the Democrat party, most of the social justice organizations in the USA, and the media. While some conservative members of the House Republican caucus may object, they will have no power in a chamber where radical leftists hold the majority. While a few members of the Republican Senate may support the president, remember the Senate is full of RINO’s and weak members of the club. Flake and Corker may be gone but Sasse, Romney, Collins, and Murkowski will not support the president so the Republicans in the Senate as a body cannot be counted on.

Trump will be on his own for the next two years and the attacks will only become more vicious.
