    Where is the line right now? Not between good and evil, or right and wrong. Where is the line between a legitimate gov business, and political intimidation?

    Let’s say a county prosecutor told me they were going to file DUI charges against me cause I was pulled over and drunk, if I threatened the prosecuting attorney there is no question that I’d be in a jail.

        With no capacity to enforce what would this accomplish anyway? Wouldn’t Trump just continue to ignore it and Republicans would just cry and shout they need to impeach the people who tried to hold them in contempt?
