I keep thinking,no one in their right mind would agree to call Melania because spousal privilege!
Any “privileges” are all the same! They also have similar exceptions. So unless any of those exceptions occur, then the Dems need to be blown off the same way they would if they tried to call his wife. Don’t even entertain their nonsense!
I couldn’t find that linkage.
And if that were the case, then I don’t think he’d be pushing for witnesses knowing that could open up a Burisma can of worms.
He does say, eventually, that if there was suspicion Romney needed to be investigated for, then use any path other than foreign government.
In a way, the Trump team is subtly letting the House managers destroy their own case by droning on and on and repeating themselves over and over.

Crossfire Hurricane.”
I would imagine that the Judge is a filter for frivilous questions, and those dealing with national security and official secrets. If it had to be done by vote it would take a lot longer and both parties want to get on with election activities.
