House Judiciary Democrats are warning Trump that any attempt to block Comey from testifying will be viewed as an effort to obstruct justice.
The letter from the Democrats stated:
The White House has been warned. If they try to block Comey from testifying, they will be going down a path that will lead to their demise.
Democrats won’t have to say anything. If this White House blocks Comey from testifying, they will look like they are trying to hide something and obstruct justice. The Trump White House has never been known to listen to warnings, so it will surprise no one if they try to block Comey by claiming executive privilege, then after they lose they will scream witch hunt and fake news.
