'Con man, crook, draft dodger, racist'—actual words House Republicans want to ban in Trump hearing
You might be tempted to think what you are about to read is a joke, but I can assure you it is not. On Monday, June 10, the House Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing on the Mueller report. Ahead of that committee hearing, which is sure to dominate news coverage next week, Republican Rep. Doug Collins, a ranking member of the committee, has sent a letter to its chairman, Jerry Nadler, citing the manual of decorum, with a list of words he wants Chairman Nadler to ban members from using about Donald Trump during the hearing.
It’s quite an incredible list, really. Rep. Collins has quite accurately nailed Trump’s character with these descriptors.
