Pelosi: Trump's refusal to cooperate with subpoenas is a 'growing pattern of obstruction'
Pelosi made the comments in a memo sent to Democratic offices.

Imagine if there was something that could be done about it, even if it was a symbolic gesture to prove to the base that you are fed up, and you are going to do something about it?

So is there anything the Democrats can actually do about any of this?

Obviously the GOP at this point is just Trump stooges and won't do anything. But them just calling for people to resign (and being ignored), threatening to hold people in contempt (and being ignored), and holding hearings (and people not bothering to show up) is getting tiring.

They can't do shyt. That's why they're so frustrated. Can't get his taxes, can't get them into hearings, can't impeach.
They just have to let Trump shyt the bed which he does all by himself and hope it's enough to get him out at election time. McConnell holds all the power and dems despite having the house only appear to have power. But they don't have shyt because repubs don't play by the rules.

Yes they can, but they won't. If someone can stop your enemies, but you don't. What does that mean?
