Here’s a little montage of Devin Nunes, the world’s saddest clown from his opening statement today:

#HotTake but I think there’s a chance Trump shows up at the hearing. The Mueller Report was very low key and there were not a lot of leaks. It was easier for Trump’s handlers to rein him in. He had Barr in his back pocket and was probably reassured on a daily basis by Mitch and Lyndsay that they would take care of it. I think that’s the real reason he didn’t fire Mueller.
But this is all open to the public and completely different. Trump HATES being embarrassed. He can’t control the narrative. Peter Welsh practically goaded Trump into taking the stand and the entire room laughed. That has to be devastating for someone as narcissistic as Trump. If Sondland covers his own ass, there’s no telling what Trump will do.

They will never expose Trump to open questioning. Are you serious?

I mean I did preface it with a #HotTake but this is Trump we are talking about. He’s the smartest most stable genius in the room. This is the same guy that released a transcript asking Ukraine to do him a favor. Pretty sure his handlers were adamant about not releasing that too.

Lol snap bet my net worth trump doesn’t sit at hearing for questions.
True, but wouldn’t it be fun?
Good job Mueller accepting written answers, then doing jack fucking shit when he LIED IN THE WRITTEN ANSWERS

He wouldn’t answer any any just repeat witch-hunt and perfect call over and over.
Thanks for linking. This part made me laugh. Fair and balanced Fox News includes a Democrat’s perspective.

Who’s around to stop him if he insists now? Is there anyone left who we could argue might not just be a total yes man?

He doesn’t have the temperament to stay cool and calm like that, Dems would needle him into screaming he ordered the code red in the first 5 minutes.

I think they could get him in there. They just need to pound the narrative of “Trump won’t testify because he’s scared to.”
“Oh sorry, but we know Trump won’t come in and talk to himself because he’s scared of us.”
“Trump is terrified to sit in that chair right there.”
“Trump is acting like a scared little girl.”

He has admitted to the code red 100 times already. He just doesn’t think it’s an actual code red.
“Hillary sat in front of Congress for like 10 hours. I guess she has bigger cojones than the president.”

Hillary should definitely make the media rounds saying she wasn’t scared to testify. A couple of weeks of Dems goading and mocking Trump will have an effect.

You have to pull back from thinking Trump will testify. No one can imagine him sitting still for even 20 minutes. Now put that into a 5 hour hearing. They probably have to shoot him with downers for everything he does where he needs to sit in one place for 10 minutes or more.
Now saying he’ll testify and then not show up is very him.

She seems busy putting out feelers about whether or not she should run again. Bloomer and Patrick jumping in will likely create a surge of political consultants going around to everyone they can think of saying “if them why not you”?
