Sorry... if we haven't learned by now that nothing will take him down, well, I don't know what to tell you.

So....what happens after the vote?

Doesn't this have to be signed off by Trump himself?

"What could Trump do?"

"Even if the vote does find in favour of releasing the files, there is no guarantee it will become law."

"The bill would then have to get through the Senate. Leaders there have shown no indication that they would table it for a vote."

"Trump also has the power to veto it. The House could only force cooperation by holding the attorney general in contempt of Congress, which is unlikely."

This is much ado about nothing.
