Syphilis Bill Clinton and his tarmac meeting
If they want the lowdown on that, they’re better off subpoenaing Lynch.
Bill’s already demonstrated that he’s got no problem with lying under oath. But Loretta? She’d crack.

He should be cautious the comments he's tweeting about potential witnesses.
Left will be screaming "WITNESS INTIMIDATION!"

I have a gut feeling that being under oath will not mean a thing to Adam Schiff.
But he should fear the hell the Republicans will unleash on him.

Does Trump have to testify?

while I agree what makes you think schiff would even testify truthfully? or plead the 5th
Furthermore, it being within the confines of an official congressional duty, he would be protected under the Speech and Debate clause (article 1, section 6) of the Constitution. The courts have ruled that those who are immune to prosecution cannot take the 5th. I’d love to see Schiff held in contempt and impeached for failure to fulfill his constitutional duties.

quote:Maybe by rule. But if the House advances the Articles of Impeachment, the fever pitch out there would accept nothing less than a trial. What you propose might actually be what's best for everyone, Dems get to wag their fingers and Repubs don't have to go on record, but I don't think that's an acceptable option for the majority of Americans. Dems are stupid and they think they have him by the balls. Republicans want to go scorched earth. JMO
McConnell has an option.

If they can catch him in a lie, via emails, memos, or texts; then he has perjured himself. He will be full of "I don't remember, I do not recall" garbage.

interesting. if schiff didn't voluntarily comply, is there some reason the senate can do that and the house can't?

My favorite thing about Trump’s branding has been the “perfect” call. To date. I like it better than Pocahontas and ALMOST better than Crooked (his best nickname of all time).
But the “perfect” call is so genius, bc it places the burden of proving the call “imperfect” on the idiot Democrats who can’t ever disprove a transcript. They are so dumb they don’t realize they are reinforcing Trump’s point when they mock his “perfect” call.
It’s truly, truly genius. He so owns them. He’s outsmarted them already and these lunatics are too stupid to realize it. It’s brilliant. He hasn’t outmaneuvered them yet, but he’s going to. I love our POTUS.

hope you are right but why would the hotel stuff be relevant and/or admissible?
Because as the driver of he impeachment proceedings in the House, he would be found to be lacking in character/credibility .

Yep. If a senate trial occurred, this would be the strategy of every democrat called to testify
