Thomas McClintock actually said...

"This blood lust for impeachment is not going to be visited on us or President Trump."

"The doctrine of executive privilege actually began with a subpoena that the House issued to President George Washington in 1796."

"Congress can no more intrude into the policy discussions of the President than the President can intrude into our own policy discussions."

"President Trump's actions are not unprecedented. Many Presidents have defied congressional subpoenas, including President Obama on many occasions."
