Schiff’s Response
“Mr. President, what you call ‘political’ are actually called facts, and your concern for sources and methods would be more convincing if you hadn’t decided to release the GOP memo (‘100%’) before reading it and over the objections of the FBI,” tweeted Schiff.
Schiff had said prior to now that the memo proved that there were facts that proved the President was lying.
There was a belief that there was information in the memo that Trump doesn’t want to get out.
The President expecting this to be the case made it clear that his refusal had nothing to do with transparency.
Either way the memo didn’t pass the sign off, so Democrats now had to return to the table and work it out.
