Resolved:
Article IV: The President of the United States abused the power of his office by directing officials and former officials within the Executive Branch to refuse compliance with duly authorized subpoenas issued by committees of the US House of Representatives engaged in the constitutional exercise of their Executive Branch oversight authority.
TO BE CONTINUED*....
*The latest enablers to defy a House subpoena upon instructions from Don Veto are Hope Hicks, a former communications director, and former deputy counsel Annie Donaldson. According to Mueller, Hicks witnessed several instances of obstruction by the Duck and Donaldson took extensive contemporaneous notes during the ouster of FBI Director Comey. The two women join attorney General Robert Barr and former White House counsel, Don McGahn in defiance of subpoenas as part of the Duck's scorched earth defense against possible impeachment. Hicks was praised by Chairman Nadler for turning over some documents to the House Judiciary Committee, but they are ones already submitted to the House Intelligence Committee and not relevant to the charges of obstruction of justice. So far, thanks to an intimidated and conflicted Democratic House leadership, his strategy is working to delay any investigation progress until the "silly season" of the 2020 election, which the Duck has reason to believe he can win.
If Donald Duck is not impeached the voting public will view the Democrats as spineless punks unwilling to stand up for the Constitution, so they might as well vote for a deceitful plutocrat who at least sounds like a populist leader, or stay home. The power of public scandal in a Senate trial given an eventual partisan nullification is a negative force even this prolific propagandist could not overcome in the election. The hair-splitting hot air emanating from the House Democratic Caucus led by a feckless plutocrat about beginning an impeachment inquiry is only making the Duck look invincible and the Democrats pusillanimous, thus solidifying his already adoring base while alienating Democratic supporters. Simply put, Democrats need to walk progressively and chew impeachment gum until 2020. Impeachment inquiry now, impeachment later.
