Trump is hoping that by the time this gets to the supreme court, Ginsburg will have passed, and he will have a court ruling that the President and his records is not subject to subpoenas.Well you know what, after the baloney about Obama's birth certificate and chants of lock her up this should seem pretty mild. I don't know what they might find but my guess it will be that he hardly pays any taxes at all because of depreciation of real estate. That's not even the point, this is the law and the President doesn't get to decide which ones he does and does not have to comply with.
So anyone sympathetic with Mnuchin and Rettig, because they are the ones facing contempt charges? This is going to court, I would bet on it, and Trump is going to lose. I mean unless the legal argument could be made that it serves no legislative purpose. Of course they have said that, but saying it isn't a legal argument and this isn't something trivial that will come to nothing. Not because of the tax returns but because Trump is stonewalling over them.
