1/ This is outrageous contempt. It isn't just that this scumbag Lewandowski is slapping the committee with it.

This is a test, and the Democrats are going to fail it. They're so bad at this it makes me cringe.

2/ How much insult and contempt to do you need? How much obstruction and evasion is enough?

Are you going to let this go? Of course you are.

Trump and the House GOP are playing nuclear hardball and you idiots are at high tea. They're not bound by law or norms.

3/ They're playing to Fox. You're playing to what, exactly?

This guy is in contempt. He has no privilege or immunity. He was always a private citizen.

It's not about Corey. It's about the total inability of the House majority to get down to nut-cutting.

4/ It's about the only line of defense in a threatened democracy being manned by a group of people who don't understand that until you cause Trump's shitheel minions actual pain, with penalties and consequences, they will act with impunity.

5/ Trump's enablers are building a TV drama for their team. That's why Gym, et al tear their hair out, spit, and caper on the stage. They understand this is a *reality show* now.

Do I have to do ALL of this for you?

6/ They've already won the day unless you provide a comparable *show*.

Taking his abuse and contempt and running these anodyne questions is pathetic. It's weak. It's *not exciting television.*

I don't care about the *legality* of "Sargent at arms, take that man into custody."

7/ I care about the *drama* and the visual. He's obviously in contempt.

By letting him escape the consequences of contempt, the House Democrats send the clear signal that ANYONE from the WH can slap them, spit on the floor and say, "Fuck you."

8/ This is where the whole "IMPEACH!" crowd falls down.

You think THESE people are going to carry out some deus ex machina impeachment miracle when they can't even handle this bama dipshit Lewandowski?

FFS.
