“Basically, I’m going to jail at the hands of the Democrats. So take it from there,” Navarro said, adding that he always believed the case was destined to be fought before the Supreme Court.
“This isn’t about me, okay. This is about the constitutional separation of powers and the sanctity of so-called executive privilege that goes back to George Washington. …And the irony of this whole thing is that the judiciary… The Department itself…Democratic and Republican administrations have said for more than 50 years that they cannot subpoena the president, his alter ego, that he is a senior adviser in the White House. They just can’t do it. you can’t. [It] It violates the separation of powers. So if I go to prison and lose on appeal, separation of powers as we know it will end and executive privilege will die a slow death at the hands of the Biden administration. And I’m sure the Democrats don’t want that either, so that’s not good,” he explained.
“This is a fight that I’m fighting on behalf of the Constitution on principle. I did what I had to do to uphold my oath of office. And I did what I had to do to uphold my oath of office. I’m honored that it’s even gone to court. Let’s see what happens,” he said, adding that they weren’t deciding on the case itself, but rather “should I just be released pending appeal? “They will decide whether or not to do so. By the way, that is normal in cases like mine,” he added.
