House Republicans really didn’t think through the consequences of having a former president testify before Congress about their relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, because now Democrats have all the justification they could ever want to force Donald Trump to testify.
Rep. Ro Khanna laid out the case very clearly today during a press conference in Washington.
“A new precedent has been set in America today,” declared the California Democrat. “Before this, we had the Trump rule. Trump defied, as all of you know, a congressional subpoena with the January 6th committee. He said presidents don't have to testify. Now we have the Clinton rule, which is that presidents and their families have to testify when Congress issues a subpoena. And that means that Donald Trump needs to come before our committee and explain what he knew about Epstein.”
Demand Donald Trump testify under oath about Epstein!
Khanna continued, saying "We are now asking and demanding that President Trump officially come in and testify in front of the Oversight Committee. He appears in the Epstein files — next to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell — almost more than anybody else.”
“It’s time for the president to answer questions about why files are missing from the DOJ, why there’s been a White House cover-up, and why [the administration] continues to call this investigation a hoax.”
Two can play at this game, Rep. Comer. If you want to drag the Clintons before your kangaroo court, we can do the same to Donald Trump, who is actually guilty of serious crimes and now a cover-up as well.
Demand Donald Trump testify under oath about Epstein!
