    Trump clearly wants the impeachment fight. Obviously thinks it's a winner from him. Now ignoring proper requests from Congress. More obstruction of justice.

    His numbers aren't moving. They're not going to move.

    Time to give him the fight he wants.

    All the more reason to watch that scene again several times, just to make sure I'm right! :)

    To be fair, I don't think that was an option for him after his boss refused to do so.

    As I noted a couple pages ago, this seems like the one thing that could coalesce both parties in Congress against him. I'd like to think the GOP is smart enough to realize that if they allow him to subvert their powers this way, the same tactics will be in play when a Democratic administration takes office (hopefully in 2020).

    The fastest way for a President to make Senators and Reps cross party lines is to make them feel like he's castrating their power.

    That ship has sailed. There’s about 40 sets of testicles hanging from the Trump Tower portico.

    You'd think they would already have been released when he ran for governor of Indiana.

    I see what you're saying, but nothing he's done thus far would so vastly damage the GOP Congress's ability to conduct oversight of future (Democratic) administrations as instructing underlings to ignore Congressional subpoenas and suing the chair of the HOC. I'd like to think the GOP is able to see farther down the road than the tips of their collective noses.

    I might be wrong, but they've got to be aware of how he's eroding not just Democratic power, right?

    Hey, speaking of politics, is the Search function here still "broken," or has it actually been shut down?

    True dat, but it's still fun to whip him with it.
