Kay Ann didn't secure him another term. But people who couldn't care less that Trump abuses his power and tries to act like a king may do that. Especially since the GOP couldn't care less either and refuses to uphold their own oaths of office.
You've precisely described Obama's time in office in ten simple words. Congrats!!!!
Executive privilege applies, the "blanket privilege" you keep talking about is only applicable if Trump were suggesting that executive privilege could not be overridden. SCOTUS has ruled that it absolutely can be overruled by the judiciary under certain circumstances.... but Democrats didn't even attempt to do that, so there's no point in talking about it.
No, in Nixon, the assertion of a blanket executive privilege was a different issue from whether the assertion of privilege was subject to judicial review. This is not the first time you have confused fundamental concepts discussed in Nixon.
By asserting executive privilege over the entirety of the Executive Branch, Trump is doing exactly what the Nixon Court flatly and unequivocally stated was not permissible. That is why Trump is being charged with obstruction of Congress. There is not even an arguable legal justification for him to assert such a sweeping claim of privilege in light of the Nixon case and its progeny.

I get that's what you think, but you are mistaken. Educate yourself and we'll continue

A few hours ago you were telling us that executive privilege stemmed from separation of powers so maybe pump the brakes on telling other posters to educate themselves. I have extensively studied Constitutional Law and certainly know how to read case law, unlike certain others on this thread masquerading as experts, bobby.

Oh Yah. She and they did. Read the numbers and weep.
I moved my washing machine and dryer to the front porch and got all my WB tee's lined up...and am not going to put underarm deodorant or shave. Going to Wal Mart to make friends.
