Rep. Jerry Nadler, along with a number of other Democrats, are like the drunk at the bar who’s thrown up all over himself, but no one has enough respect to tell him as much.
That is, except for one guy on a New York City street.
The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee was attempting to rhetorically stare down President Trump after he was vindicated by Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
I just love this๐๐๐

“The President could try to exercise executive privilege, but it won’t be successful,” Nadler told reporters on a busy street.
“Executive privilege must be asserted by the president personally…” he continued before he was interrupted by a heckler.
“Nadler, you guys are a bunch of losers!” a man shouted, breaking Nadler’s train of thought.
“Um,” he said, shooting a glare in the man’s direction.
As Nadler brought up Richard Nixon, the man shouted, “You guys lose again, once again, Nadler,” triggering a look of disgust from the congressman.
“Good job, dirtbags, good job,” the man continued as Nadler tried to make his case for why he will continue pursuing Trump.
Members of the media could be heard trying to silence the man.
Earlier in the day, Nadler told “Meet The Press” that transparency is important:
Appearing on “Meet the Press” two days after special counsel Robert Mueller turned in his final report on Russian interference in the 2016 election to the Justice Department, Nadler argued that the White House won’t be able to hide behind the power of the presidency if there are damaging findings in the report.
“It’s critical that everything in that report and the underlying evidence be public, be open to the American people,” said Nadler, D-N.Y. “That transparency is key. America needs answers as to what’s been going on.
Again invoking Nixon, he said, “As we learned from the Nixon tapes case, executive privilege cannot be used to hide wrongdoing.”
