Trump's people just refusing to answer questions!

It is a common sense reason, not a legal one. If the president can't have confidential conversations with his cabinet, he simply can't function. It is inappropriate to ask a subordinate what the president said in a private conversation, and for good reason. I realize neither you nor the senate democrats want him to function but the reason not to answer is valid and critical.

Personally I love obstruction and gridlock because I want the federal government to do less, not more. But I hate the politics of personal destruction and what is going on now is definitely that. I'd rather the democrats just obstruct and lay off the personal war on Trump. Actually I think it may hurt them more than it will hurt Trump who isn't a politician and won't do politics again.


Surprised that you couldn't figure out that the birther thing was going to come around in this manner
 
It is always nice to watch the master. Clearly Trump could never compete with Slick Willie when it comes to lying. Truly one of the all time greatest liars to ever hold office.


I agree Trump lies are so freaking obvious that it's incompetent
 
It seems that the way Sessions got out from answering some questions was to just refuse to answer. When asked for a legal reason he gave none. This is the second Trump person who has used this technique. I guess they realize that the committees are controlled by the GOP who will never hold them in contempt for refusing to answer, so why not just refuse. The committees could hold them in contempt of Congress which could bring them a fine and up to a year in jail. So do you think that they should be required to answer and if they don't should the GOP agree to hold them in contempt?

This is nothing but BS the left wants to sling .. A nothing burger indeed !!!

What are you talking about?
 
Is that the best youv'e got. The Trump lies are too many to even start to count. Even fact check has given up trying to list all of his lies.
 
Yeeah and he got impeached for that. Maybe Trump is next.
 
Clinton was harassed over minutiae of events which took place years before. Sessions can't remember major events from weeks ago.

And she was grilled, harassed, badgered and interrogated for eleven freakin hours. And she came out shining.

2 President Trump persons have refused to answer. Certainly not the first persons who refused to answer.

Why do you consider that a jailable offense?

Congressional hearings are nothing but theater and reality TV. They resolve nothing but the illusion of the american political system.
 
Oh it's not really bitter. I just find it incredibly amusing, given how much y'all hate her, that you would spend so much time acting exactly like her.
Not ya'll. Im on record pre-election saying that while my preference was for Trump i did not believe she would of been a terrible president.

Sure she is a crook and so is Trump. They are all crooks and liars. Really for me its just a matter gov being to far left and i see a need to move right.

If they are "all crooks" than it doesn't really matter how far left or right government is.
 
If you nelieve that than you should be comfortable with the solid majority the right currently holds. It dont matter right

No I'm afraid it was Hillary who was found incompetent by Comey. Since he doesn't lie it is good thing Hillary lost the election.
 
Your attempt at a slight-of-hand is slight

Let you in on a secret. I actually voted for Slick Willie the first time around. I was worried George H W would push NAFTA through and wages would never be the same again. I could not see how we could compete against 3rd world wages without us taking a cut in pay.
