His tax returns and executive priveldge

The law is clear. The IRS SHALL turn over to Congress any tax return it requests.
Even if Trump wants to claim executive privileged, this should not effect his returns before 2016, when he was a private citizen.

The DoJ cannot indict a sitting President (supposedly)

So it has to be up to Congress.

Michael Cohen has provided them with ample evidence to justify looking into it.

The GOP trying to play King Maker is not going to go over well.

and WILLING in crimes Against the People of the United States and abridging the US Constitution.

Find them derelict in their duties and VOTE them out. Throw this in their faces that they are not SERVING you, but a man who believes he is above the law when you are at Town Halls, call their offices, write Letters To The Editor of your local paper, protest at their offices, etc.

We must raise our voices even LOUDER as the 2020 election gets closer.
