President Donald Trump on Tuesday appeared to suggest that the White House may refuse to comply with a slew of requests for documents sent this week by House Judiciary Committee chairman Jerry Nadler, N.Y.
Speaking at a White House event, Trump cited what he said was the Obama administration’s approach to handling document requests related to Congressional investigations: “They didn’t give one letter. They didn’t do anything. They didn’t give one letter of the requests,” Trump said.
Trump’s comment came one day after the president sounded a much more conciliatory note, telling reporters on Monday that he “cooperates with everybody.”
