“I think that he would be the most difficult witness I’ve ever faced because he’s simply not truthful. He would clearly not answer my questions so I think, sadly, this is a situation where I think I’ve heard all I need to hear.”
—U.S. Rep. Katie Porter (D-California), on the challenge of questioning Trump.
“I never dreamed I would live through our democracy being this volatile and vulnerable and fragile. I never dreamed it could ever happen. It was not in the realm of possibility and Donald Trump has taken us to the brink of the demise of our democracy. It really is that serious.”
—Political strategist Moe Vela, on Saturday.
“Had we used all available tools to uncover the truth, undeterred by the onslaught of the president’s unique powers to undermine our efforts?” I know the hard answer to that simple question: we could have done more.”
—Former federal prosecutor Andrew Weismann, a member of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team that investigated Donald Trump, in his new book Where Law Ends.
“Mr. Trump wrote off more than $70,000 paid to style his hair during ‘The Apprentice.’”
—The New York Times, reports on 18 years of Trump’s tax returns. [Boy, did someone get “clipped” on that $70,000.]
NOT A TRUMP QUOTE, but it should be (with apologies to Cavin & Hobbes)
“I understand my tests were popular reading in the teachers’ lounge.”

I agree with Katie Porter….”I think I have heard all I need to hear” to vote Trump out and support his criminal punishment!
Now we finally know why he fought so hard to keep his taxes hidden. But, of course, it’s all “fake, made up news” to him.
Last week, on September 23, 2020, the House introduced the Protecting our Democracy Act. Committee Chair Leaders said in part: “This reforms package will prevent future presidential abuses, restore our checks and balances, strengthen accountability and transparency, and protect our elections. These reforms are necessary not only because of the abuses of this president, but because the foundation of our democracy is the rule of law and that foundation is deeply at risk. This is just the beginning because we need to obtain more information so that we can continue to refine and develop these and other reforms.”
It is a must necessity but can only pass if the Democrats take control of the Senate and White House in the next election. Sad that one man could cause such measures to be introduced.
