Corrik7 10/08/19 6:03:25 PM #379:	LordoftheMorons posted... I can't imagine the Supreme Court taking Trump's side here. I would be pretty surprised if even a single Justice did (and I don't exactly have a lot of faith in the conservative justices in general). Agreeing to this is to say that the President is above the law, full stop. It also makes obstruction a slam dunk impeachable offense (if it wasn't already). Stalling for time is the only possible benefit, but I really doubt the WH is making this decision strategically. This is just Trump's instinct: fight accountability like hell no matter what. I believe that stating you are waiting for a ruling is a defensible position and wouldn't fall under obstruction. I know their strategy is to not submit to any subpoena's until an actual vote is held, whether or not that is legal or not I suppose would fall to the judicial branch. --- Xbox Live User Name - Corrik Currently playing: Division 2 <cite>Corrik7 posted [p:928515499] in Politics C...
