On Thursday the January 6th Committee unanimously voted to subpoena President Donald Trump for testimony in a last ditch effort for relevancy before the 2022 midterm elections. (Tweets) But President Donald Trump isn't opposed to testifying and could hijack the process. (Tweets) Trump sent a lengthy letter Friday morning to Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson officially responding to the subpoena vote.
"Despite very poor television ratings, the Unselect Committee has perpetuated a show trial the likes of which this country has never seen before. There is no due process, no cross-examination, no “real” Republican members, and no legitimacy since you do not talk about Election Fraud or

I'd pay to watch Trump take on those dummies, especially Liz and Schiff.

If he does testify he will change the narrative to why Jan 6 happened. The election fraud that’s why! If the networks carry it live, he will ask or state information most Americans have never head before and possibly steer them to alternative information sites. Why haven’t the democrats released 14,000 hrs of video from the Capitol? Why did Pelosi and Bowser refuse his offer of 10,000 troops before Jan 6th? Will be interesting TV to say the least.

Another high cost sham that is going nowhere. How many times do they have to fail at such nonsense before they stop. Do they not see how stupid they look.

Sadly, this will not happen. This is why they waited until the 11th hour to make this ridiculous move. Given this opportunity to make a public appearance he would have nuked their
sham committee. Though the media would try to bury it the public would melt down the internet replaying his appearance. So sad it won’t happen.

Everyone is assuming he would be allowed to talk and complete a sentence and have unlimited time to answer. This will not happen, the committee is not governed by fair play.

It's been the Wile-E-Coyote J6 Committee numbnuts against Roadrunner Trump up until now. Why should it change?

He won't be allowed to testify in front of the committee, especially after his 14 page letter to the committee which is included in the article.

For starters, PDT needs to read this letter as part of his testimony without interruption.
#4 Shhh. It's our secret!
dems will have a breakdown as PDT becomes unfurled.

they should not end this committee when the house is taken over by the Republicans. Simply reassign the members and steer the investigation the way it should have been from the beginning. Start by subpoening Pelostomy And Schiff for brains.

The Subpoena has been issued, The President has responded exactly as I thought he would. He has called their collective bluff. I am sure that behind the scenes The President’s attorneys are standing firm with the President’s desire to testify and live on Television.

That would suit me just fine, #17. It is the traditional date for Twelfth Night and also my birthday. Only me and my mom cared about my birthday, but after God was kicked out of American schools, Twelfth Night it not celebrated much anymore.

Agree, #7. IIRC, all people called to testify get to make an opening statement. PDT should read that letter as his opening statement and force the “committee” and the country to listen to every word.

This is nothing more than a purjury trap and eveyone knows it. Trump's lawyers should duct tape him to a chair to PREVENT him from testifying before an illegally constituted congressional committee pursuing the same ends as those who hijacked the J6 event. There are two, and only two, prizes to keep our eyes on: 2022 and 2024. This year we take both houses of congress. In 2024 we re-elect Trump President.
Everything else is distraction.
Trump 2024

Pure political theater. The "committee" knows former Presidents who have been subpoened by Congress have refused to testify based on separation of powers.
They also know no valid court would support their actions as it is illegally comprised according to House rules. When the GOP regains the House majority one of the first actions should be censuring Pelosi and all members who are re-seated.
The worst part of the entire charade is the complicity of the biased media.

Every time the J6 clown show tries to get back into the news cycle like this, President Trump gets even stronger. Lizzard and Kinzie, have a nice day now.

If the 1/6 committee takes the DOJ out of legal proceedings and seizes the power to convict on the spot that means they would have to arrest and incarcerate Trump on that day. That would be the spark for the physical civil war. Bad move by the witch hunt and those involved in this scam. Trump knows that the committee is on thin ice I don't think they should attempt this scam.

Who else besides political junkies will watch the hearings on C-Span? Everyone else will get the MSM's spin on what THEY heard take place.

Trump will not appear, unless it is a public hearing, and he has his lawyers present. J6 does not have the courage for that. Aside, Trump needs to get rid of the pageant lawyers, and get a lawyer with the knowledge and acerbic style of a Mark Levin, that can cut J6 into tiny pieces.

Let's not forget Atty Gen Bill Barr was in on the coup against Trump all along. Recall he resigned from the DOJ on 12/23/20. Why? Why would he resign 4 weeks before the end of Trump's presidency? He knew what was going to happen on 1/6/21 and wanted to be out of town before then and have none of his fingerprints anywhere near the scene of the crime he knew was coming.
