So when Mnuchin illegally withholds Trump's taxes over and over again.

as he certainly will, what can Congress do?
Fine him?
Arrest him?
Would there have to be a trial and what is the penalty, a day or two in prison?
Fox news would explode.
Republicans would riot.

How do they get Trump's lackeys to follow the law when they are protected and even encouraged to do criminal acts by a whole political party and news network?

The right wing is determined to destroy the rule of law which is the only standard that supports our democracy.
And they are winning.
Let's pray that the 2020 election happens, Trump is removed and the balance of power reverts to law abiding citizens.
