I don't know of an instance where the Dems ever used these minority investigations to create a circus... but then Dems aren't the partisan wackos some GOPers are. Either way, these issues are legitimate... and if an ultra partisan and disciplined GOP will try to bury these issues... what alternatives do Dems have? IF Trump's mental health AND his finances are potential threats to national security... who else is going stick their heads out to look into it? Some in the press might... but look how long it took the Watergate story to get traction with the MSM. Democratic led hearing might speed that up... after all... as citizens we NEED to know.
