trump will veto it and then wipe his ass with it live on camera.
I've read news articles hypothesizing that he would sign it because he knows it would look very bad if he didn't, but I don't think he cares how it would look. He's out there saying his AG would've never gotten the job if he knew he was going to recuse himself from the Russia investigation, so I'm pretty sure he's not going to slap more sanctions on Russia AND allow some of his power to be diminished.

if he really is compromised then he has no choice other than to veto it.
if he does veto it, then he will face the consequences.

What a dikkhead a$$hole tweet to drop that and not give any context or info.

Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort met behind closed doors Tuesday morning with the Senate intelligence committee, Manafort's spokesman Jason Maloni told CNN, as a separate Senate committee announced it has subpoenaed the former Trump aide.

"Paul Manafort met this morning, by previous agreement, with the bipartisan staff of the Senate Intelligence Committee and answered their questions fully," Maloni said in a statement.

Manafort also provided documents to the intelligence committee, according to a source briefed on the interview.
The Senate intelligence committee is one of several congressional panels investigating Russian interference in the US election last year. Another is the Senate judiciary committee, which has sought testimony from Manafort and President Donald Trump's eldest son.

The chairman and top Democrat of the Senate intelligence committee have offered to share a transcript of the interview with the leaders of the Senate judiciary committee.

Senate judiciary committee chairman Chuck Grassley and the top Democrat on the panel, Dianne Feinstein, issued a joint statement Tuesday saying that Manafort and the top members of the committee were "unable to reach an agreement for a voluntary transcribed interview with the Judiciary Committee."

"(A) subpoena was issued to compel Mr. Manafort's participation in Wednesday's hearing," the two senators said. "As with other witnesses, we may be willing to excuse him from Wednesday's hearing if he would be willing to agree to production of documents and a transcribed interview, with the understanding that the interview would not constitute a waiver of his rights or prejudice the committee's right to compel his testimony in the future."

This story has been updated to reflect additional reporting related to when Manafort met with the Senate intelligence committee.
