On Friday night, constitutional lawyer Jonathan Turley wrote that Democrats have to give up their ridiculous argument that Trump must be impeached because he would go to court to challenge a congressional subpoena. Turley has called this the Democrats’ “abuse of power” because presidents routinely claim executive privilege and go to court to determine what documents they have to hand over.
Yet earlier on Friday, Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) went so far as to brand Trump a “dictator” — because he refused to hand over documents to Congress immediately. Oh no! The president had the temerity to flout a congressional subpoena, preferring to litigate the matter in court. This must be an abuse of power, right? It’s not like any previous administration referred to executive privilege to refuse to hand over documents to Congress, right? Certainly, Barack Obama would never, ever do that.
It’s not like there was an ATF gun-walking scandal that got a law enforcement officer killed, and when Congress requested documents, an attorney general — like, I don’t know, Eric Holder? — refused to hand them over. That would never happen, right? I mean, it’s not like Eric Holder was held in contempt of Congress over this or anything. Democrats like Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, and Jerry Nadler would never defend such a thing, would they?
But I digress. Jerry Nadler, He Who Exposes Dictators, will not be bothered by such trifling details from recent history. His powerful remarks exposed Trump as a dictator — a horrific malevolent force railroading Congress like no one before him.
“President Trump is an outlier. He’s the first and only president ever to declare himself unaccountable and to ignore subpoenas backed by the Constitution’s impeachment power. If he is not removed from office, if he is permitted to defy the Congress entirely, categorically, to say that subpoenas from Congress in an impeachment inquiry are nonsense, then we will have lost — the House will have lost, the Senate certainly will have lost — all power to hold any president accountable,” Nadler proclaimed.

Noodler is a real ding dong. If he knows anything he should know that Hitler was a dictator. Trump is no Hitler, though some may liken him to that.
