Threatening to get rid of her as an ambassader while shes testifying against him as a threat is obstruction of justice. HE has the right hire and fire anyone he wants. But if he uses that privalidge to bully and threaten then it is a crime.

Nope. She works for POTUS not Congress. There is no obstruction. The same argument was attempted with Comey and it failed to pass the smell test.

Nope as per Comey. Congress is not a court of law either.

WOW! You just said its ok for the President of the USA to use and abuse his power to threaten people. I am shocked by responses I get from Trumpers. Maybe he ought to hire you to commit some of his dastardly crimes for him. Are you in the mafia?

No I said Trump can fire her as he is her boss not Congress.

That is because you have issues reading so you fill in the blanks.

Babble.

See Comey.

You didn't read his tweets did you?

What was the threat?
Since I did a lot of driving yesterday, I heard many hours of NPR.
They tried to make the case for Trump's having threatened her
by playing clips of her saying that she felt threatened. But alas,
there was no actual threat cited during my 8 hour of listening.
Feelings are evidence now? Whoodathunkit.

Caution:
I'm not saying that Trump doesn't threaten people.
But claims should be backed up with more than plaintive feelings.

More so Trumps tweets were not knowledge to her until Schiff told her.

Unfortunately that wasn't the case. You really should check your facts....

That was the case and threatening to get her fired while she was testifying? He should not have said a word to her while she was testifying nothing. Hes a bully and he threw his power around by doing it.

He didn't though. He criticized her on twitter. Criticism isn't a threat. Pointing out the ambassador is answerable to POTUS is law.

Whether it is determined his tweets were criminal or not, they are in bad taste and it continues this trend of Trump blurring the line between reality TV and politics.

What are you even talking about? She was already fired...besides, she was an employee of the US State Dept which is headed by the President of the US.
