Absolutely the right thing to do!!!!
BOOM!... President Trump to Pelosi - White House Will Not Cooperate Until House Holds Vote on Impeachment --- VIDEO
So you can add "obstruction of Congress" to the charges.
I wonder if you understand that the Executive branch is not subservient to the Legislative?
You do understand that they have equal power and it is the legislative branches job to do what they are doing now. Trump must comply or it's evidence of him violating the constitution.
I'm am concerned that you don't understand the concept of evidence. Evidence is a physical and tangible asset. What it is not is an inference based upon an act that has an assigned motive by anyone.
They are coequal, and as such, Congress will be required to provide proof of their justification and or permit the White House participation in their attempted prosecution.
Executive privilege alone is sufficient to force the congress to go to the SCOTUS in order to force them to turn over any privileged documentation.
That could take a good long time. Perhaps if they cooperated with the White House they'd get more done.
There is plenty of evidence. Don't need your definition of what it is that conveniently excuses everything Trump has done. Trump has used executive privilege when it did not apply and now he faces more stringent requirements and can't use executive privilege as a cover. Congress has proven their justification and Trump provided more justification this afternoon.
