21. This opinion is probably going to be very unpopular on this site, but I think they should testify. They were subpoenaed

and by law are required to do so. Just because the other side routinely violates it doesn't mean we should follow their example.

And the right wing media sphere will never let the public hear the end of this, I can hear "Crooked HIliary and Bill" all over again. And the conspiracy theories regarding the Clintons will go into high gear.

The only hope for a return to a lawful society is for at least one side to observe it. Once our side starts violating it, the rule of law is over folks, and it ain't coming back.

The Clinton's are making a huge mistake, which is going to damage our country.
