Trump ignored Congressional subpoenas and ordered others to do the same.

If Biden is ever subpoenaed, is it okay for him to do the same as Trump?
there has been no LEGAL congressional subpoenas. This committee is illegal in its formation.

Ignoring vs. asserting executive privilege is a distinction without a difference.

Either way, the party issuing the subpoena is tasked with bringing a motion to compel production and you can then fight it out in court.
is there a process to form a select committee? And has this process been followed?

I don't know what you're talking about. I was referring to Trump's impeachment. Those were legal congressional subpoenas that he ignored and ordered others to do the same.

you never said that

"If the House tries to subpoena Biden for any wrongdoing, should he be allowed to block congressional subpoenas like Trump did?"

You said:

"Trump didn't block any legal subpoenas"

He ignored Congressional subpoenas and ordered others to do the same.


@AverageJoe1
The takeaway from that is you consciously ignored ANY inference to the crimes of Trump. But now that Biden's name is up for NOTHING BTW ATT, NOW you are totally interested in proceedings.
