1. I predict there is zero chance they will all of a sudden decide to be patriots.

And ultimately next to nothing will ever happen to them because we simply dont have a system set up for this, until trump even republicans generally speaking were patriotic in this area.

They are not anymore. They are all traitors, our actual enemy exactly the way Hitler's nazi troops were in WWII.

In other words until trump we relied on people being patriotic to respond to Congressional subpoenas. The GOP is no longer patriotic.

hide, lie, and sue till they have no other legal recourse...and all along the way they will be hitting the rubes up for money.

This is a going concern for these a holes. They have no respect for the law. They are going to milk for every bit of notoriety and money they can scam and IMO, nothing is going to happen to them.

Dire things will happen, they will be sorry, they HAVE to answer or....

Or WHAT?

I don't think a freakin' thing will happen.

There's no teeth in these inferences. They honestly don't know what they are going to do or what they can do.

I am a Behavioral Psychologist and this is infuriating to me. If you have nothing to use as consequences for their failure, you have no control over what they do.

For consequences to be effective, they have to be spelled out in detail out loud, ahead of time. Vague threats aren't going to stop anything.
