Schiff Checkmates Trump & Publicly Embarrasses Him In Front Of The World

When Special Counsel Robert Mueller concluded his investigation into Trump’s involvement with Russia’s interference in the 2016 election and then subsequently turned his report over to the Attorney General, the question remained whether or not the report would be made public. Since then, we’ve received a very brief “summary” of the report, written by AG William Barr, and many people — Democrats and Republicans alike — have demanded to see the entire report. Even Trump himself announced to reporters at the White House that he thought it should be made public.

Watch:

That video took place just one week ago, but now that Democrats in office have prepped a subpoena for the report, it seems that Trump has changed his tune, and he showed that today as he took to his Twitter podium with another one of his epic rants about how “unhinged” Democrats have become. He even brought up the “Clinton” name again, which he just can’t seem to keep from doing:

And, then he made the mistake of calling out House Committee Chairman Adam Schiff once again:

But Schiff didn’t seem at all bothered by Trump’s manic display and said in response:

‘“It looks like the president … is concerned about that. He ought to live up to what he said earlier,” said House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) “He ought to support the full release. None of that should be redacted. But clearly he’s concerned about that coming out. If he is feeling so confident about what [the report] says, then you would think he would urge its full release. But clearly he’s not. And you’d have to ask him why.”’

Yes. Let’s DO ask him why? Why is he suddenly so worried? We’ll have to wait and see if we ever find out the reason, but it’s looking as though the “president” is feeling a little defensive, which could give cause to worry that he might invoke executive privilege over this report. We hope it doesn’t come to that.
