Trump going to The Hague

EatTheRich

President
Trump allowed everyone that Mueller wanted to talk with to testify during the investigation and released immediately every piece of information that Mueller asked for. Trump answered Mueller's questions in written form. He completely cooperated. Democrats ignored the results of the investigations and continued with their persecution of the president. Trump is completely within his rights not to cooperate any more.

Executive privilege, as exercised by every other president before him, is perfectly acceptable. Democrats, however, couldn't even wait for the court challenges to be ruled on. The second article should be thrown out on it's face, since no ruling was made on Trump's use of executive privilege.

Democrats, in a more sane time in our nation, would be shunned for being the corrupt children that they are. Trump was right in that the democrats control the news and that is a danger to the American people.
Mueller said he did not completely cooperate. He did not assert executive privilege.

Mueller asked for Trump to sit down and be interviewed. Also he would not have listed 10 counts of obstruction of justice had he and his people cooperated fully.

The President can not exercise executive privilege in an effort to cover up wrongdoing. Which is why he did not invoke it during the investigation into Ukraine. That matter had already been settled in court long before the Trump admin.

You guy attacked sanity in this nation when you elected and mentally ill person as POTUS.
You ended it when you all jumped on the bandwagon of this lunatic after spending most of the election year telling everyone who nutty he was. If you doubt it take look at what Republicans said when he started his run vs after he gained office.

Your assumption that executive privilege automatically assumes guilt means that every president in modern history is guilty of everything they have been investigated for. Trump did not assert executive privilege during the investigations. It was only after democrats decided that they were going to keep harassing the president did Trump decide to fight back.

This constant and blatant abuse of power by the democrats is very damaging to the country. Hatred or not, the left needs to start thinking about the American people, not just their own ambitions of power.

No there is a legitimate reason for executive privilege. But not so for withholding information into an investigation of wrong doing.

In fact, as I have noted here before, under the rule is that a jury should assume the worst when someone withhold evidence and that the accusations that lead to the cover up are true.

Spoliation of evidence is the intentional, reckless, or negligent withholding, hiding, altering, fabricating, or destroying of evidence relevant to a legal proceeding.

The theory of the spoliation inference is that when a party destroys evidence, it may be reasonable to infer that the party had "consciousness of guilt" or other motivation to avoid the evidence. Therefore, the factfinder may conclude that the evidence would have been unfavorable to the spoliator.

So then we can assume that any president asserting executive privilege is guilty of whatever it is they are accused of? Fine, I'll remember that if a democrat ever finds their way back into power.

I'm sure your position would have changed by that time. :)

Trump did not claim executive privilege. Which is why he was charged with obstructing Congress. He just call it fake and refused to release any document or allow those involved to be interviewed or to testify.

Well that's a lie, Trump released over 4 million documents. He kept nothing back from Mueller.

You are mixing up two investigations. He didn't release anything in regards to impeachment proceedings.
I wasn't talking about the impeachment proceedings. I know he didn't cooperate with that because it was rigged from the outset. I wouldn't have cooperated either.
