“There are several major questions for the House January 6th committee, including whether to subpoena Donald Trump himself. I gotta be honest, if I was on the committee, I’m not sure where I would land on the question of whether to subpoena Trump. I mean, on the one hand it would be great to get him under oath on camera, so you could make him answer questions in front of the public under the threat of perjury. On the other hand, he’s not going to answer questions under threat of perjury. Putting Trump on the stand is as good an idea as putting a chimpanzee in a school play – he’s not going to stick to the script.” —Seth Meyers
“Trump can’t even answer softball questions from his friends on Fox News without going off on deranged tangents. It would take days. The networks would have to pre-empt all their programming so Trump could ramble about statues or ax murders or windmills or toilets that don’t flush, although it would be nice to get him under oath about the toilets he’s always talking about. The committee will also use footage from a documentary that shows the Trump associate Roger Stone anticipating the insurrection before the 2020 election. In footage captured by Danish film-makers for A Storm Foretold, Stone explains how Trump will discredit the election and use armed guards to refuse to cede power. Why do all these guys explain their criminal schemes out loud in highly specific details before they do them? They’re like Bond villains spelling out exactly how they’re going to kill him right before he slips out of his handcuffs.” —Seth Meyers
