The time has come to rein him in. I think you may be using the word "citizen" loosely or in jest when you are referring to Trump. He is not POTUS anymore and as such has no presidential immunity from the law, but the responsibilities and obligations of a US citizen are to: Support and defend the Constitution. Participate in the democratic process. Respect and obey federal, state, and local laws. Respect the rights, beliefs, and opinions of others including respect the different, ethnic groups, cultures, and religions, Pay income and other taxes honestly, and on time, to federal, state, and local authorities. Defend the country if the need should arise including servicing military service when required. What are your rights and responsibilities as an American citizen? - COSAction (conventionofstates.com) Edited October 18, 2022 by LosLobo 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, that would be the only time that you have ever said anything that I agree with. Rubbish! Majority of my posts are only opinion, and if I state something as fact I include a link. You said 16 hours ago, LosLobo said: Your posts regularly quote talking points that are either directly or indirectly from Trump or the GOP. as a fact, not an opinion. Ergo the onus is on you to prove it, but you can't, so not true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll hopefully reduce the proceedings to a farce ( IMO it's already a farce ) circus and i hope I get to watch it all on the internet. Very enjoyable entertainment. Whatever happens, I suspect they will regret making him come on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the previous 6 years continual attempts to do him for something, anything, I doubt charges for contempt will be of any concern for him in any way, shape or form. I suspect he'll just take the fifth and let them go doolally trying to get something out of him. Either way, I reckon they will come to regret the subpoena. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem boils down to the fact that you are unable or unwilling to engage in honest debate. On this forum, like in the rest of the world, beside opinions, facts still do matter. TBH, if you state something as fact you do not always include a link and if prompted to do so, it is can sometimes be irrelevant and inaccurate.

pomchop Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Put trump under oath and give him a mike....he will further incriminate himself within five minutes as he has no clue as to how to keep his big mouth shut much to the chagrin of his "lawyers". And of course he would not take the fifth as he has said over and over only guilty people take the fifth...sorta boxed yourself in there didn't u donnie or will you claim you never said that even though it is all on tape mutliple times. But until he takes an oath like all the others he should not and will not be allowed to have a forum to repeat the same old tired bs lies to use as a further con/fundraiser from the kool aide crew. Amazing that so many don't seem to understand that speaking under oath is very different than just blabbing away on fox or maga friendly outlets. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Trump Jan. 6 subpoena: New poll shows 60% of Americans believe former president should testify A new poll released by Monmouth University on Wednesday showed that 60% of Americans feel that former President Donald Trump should testify before the Jan. 6 House special committee. Just one-third of the public — 34% — says he should not have to appear, which includes 67% of Republicans. https://news.yahoo.com/trump-jan-6-subpoena-poll-165159247.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine it now- the committee members getting exercised and Trump taking the fifth on everything. However, short of confessing to an actual crime, I doubt there is anything he could say that would make him worse off than he already is.

LosLobo Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 (edited) The subpoena was issued by Jan 6th committee yesterday and Trump's legal team have responded. They slammed the committee, I suggest both hypocritically and paradoxically, for making the subpoena public and accused the committee of "flouting norms" with the subpoena. “ Edited October 22, 2022 by LosLobo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last I heard that he has problem hiring which resulted in the Jan 6 committee delaying serving the subpoena. https://abcnews.go.com/US/jan-committee-find-trump-lawyer-wholl-accept-service/story?id=91735130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
