Why Congressional Subpoenas? Trump Investigated Himself

[Johny Joe Hold]

I can't believe our laws allow that bunch of Congressional bandits on Capitol Hill to see the President's Bank records, tax records and correspondence with Russia. He had looked into these matters himself and tweeted to the world everything is fine.

Even if the President found something wrong he would have corrected it before anyone noticed.

Everyone already knows the Trump name was to go on a hotel in Moscow. The Russians were going to build it with their own money and pay the President for using his name. While this was being negotiated the President let is be known all trade restrictions with Russia might be lifted and the U.S. complaints about Russian invasions of other countries would stop. The President checked to see if any of this was outside his general business ethical standards and found it was not.

And we need to let Congress know that just because it has the power to remove a President from office it does not have the power to investigate a President. Trump has turned over no information and ordered staff not to testify. He already asked his staff who found him innocent.

These investigations must stop now.

As Trump said on Twitter


"In the “old days” if you were President and you had a good economy, you were basically immune from criticism. Remember, “It’s the economy stupid.” Today I have, as President, perhaps the greatest economy in history...and to the Mainstream Media, it means NOTHING. But it will!"

Trump has a great economy so whether or not he's involved in Russia should be overlooked. What's a few million in benefits and special loans for himself compared to the billions and billions he's generating for the economy?

This reminds me of a great biblical story where some good (but misguided) servant arrogantly questioned the Lord's Divine Plan and God put him in his place!
Job 38:1-18

Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said,

2 Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge?


3 Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.


4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.


5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?


6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;


7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

I think Trump should take a similar approach that God took when criticized by Job. Notice that the good Lord doesn't actually mention the real reason why He put Job through all this suffering including having most of his family slaughtered(so He could win a bet with Satan Job 2:1-10) , He simply mentions how great He is and how He created the world and knows all and has a divine plan, thus it's not Job's place to question Him and His divine plan.

I think Trump should have a similar approach. Everytime he is accused of something he should ignore the accusation and rather than explaining the real (no doubt very good) reason for his actions say "Did you make the economy great? Who appointed 2 conservative Supreme Court justices? Where were you when I signed my historic tax cuts? Did you enhance our military? Who lead the charge to defeat ISIS? Who are you to question me, your President?"
