Jerry Nadler shoots down Trump's Mueller report s Executive Privilege claim.
House Judiciary committee chairman Jerry Nadler shot down Trump’s claim of executive privilege to hide the Mueller report.
Sarah Sanders released a statement:
House Judiciary Committee chairman Rep. Jerry Nadler responded that Trump has already waved executive privilege, “In response to our latest good faith offer, the department abruptly announced that if we move forward today, it will ask President Trump to invoke what on all the materials subject to our subpoena. Just minutes ago, it took that dramatic step. Besides misapplying the doctrine of executive privilege, since the White House waived these privileges long ago and the department seemed open to sharing these materials with us just yesterday, this decision represents a clear escalation and the trump administration’s blanket defiance of Congress constitutionally mandated duties. I hope that the department will think better of this last-minute outburst and return to negotiations.”

Nader is right. Trump waved his executive privilege, and this is nothing more than a stall tactic. Trump doesn’t want the House to get the Mueller report, and especially the underlying evidence, because it could be used to impeach him.
Trump is digging his hole deeper with the American people, and only making it worse for himself after Democrats win and get the full Mueller report.
