If Trump “has nothing illegal or untoward to hide, why does he care about the [attorney-client] privilege in the first place?

WOW!, just WOW!

WOW is right. These people would scream like stuck pigs if a cop demanded entry into their homes to collect papers and electronic devices to see if they've been misbehaving in any way. But when it happens to Trump, their answer is, "Hey, if you have nothing to hide, why are you so concerned about your privacy and 4th amendment rights?".

Amazing, isn’t it? It’s like saying if you’re not doing anything wrong, why worry if your every action in your home is recorded, or all your phone conversations listened to? If you’re not a criminal, why not register your gun?

Com’n on now, they’re just being fair.

Remember when the had the same headline about how if Obama had nothing to hide, he’d release all the records from hi s past? Or how about the NYT headline saying that if Hillary had nothing to hide, why did she wipe her server and smash her smartphones?

NY Times Editorial: If Trump “has nothing illegal or untoward to hide, why does he care about the [attorney-client] privilege in the first place?”

He wouldn't, if those pledged to uphold the law were unbiased, not seeking to abuse the law to his detriment, and run up the bill during the process.

It reminds me of this comment about the NSA: "If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear."
