A former aide to President Trump’s campaign informed the House Judiciary Committee in a letter that he doesn’t plan to cooperate with their requests for documents or testimony, The Washington Post reported.
Michael Caputo, one of 81 associates of Trump contacted this week with document records from House Democrats, told the Post he informed the committee he doesn’t have any documents relevant to their inquiry and that he doesn’t plan to comply with their request to appear before the committee. At least four other Trump associates plan to follow his lead, Caputo told the Post.
“All four are reluctant to appear because they believe it’s a perjury trap designed to move toward impeachment of the president,” he told the Post.

Cool. Go to jail.
If you didn’t do anything wrong, how is there any real danger of a perjury trap?
I would love to see all these bastards subpoenaed and then taking the fifth.
Caputo is an especially dickish member of a group in which the general level of dickishness runs very high.
I always go back to my favorite scene from Witness for the Prosecution.
