Asserting Dr - Patient privilege is not the same as "refusing to cooperate." It's wildly inappropriate to ask a doctor to answer questions that violate privilege in the first place.

Not really, but asserting a/c privilege is also not "refusing to cooperate." It protects the broader legal system by ensuring all participants can be truthful with their lawyers so they can get appropriate legal advice.

Nor should he cooperate. Doctor- patient confidentiality remains besides the fact that it's past and no longer relevant. What is relevant is trump's health mentally and physically.

Good! I'm sure Trump's doctor would decline to come before a congressional oversight committee and discuss the mental and physical acuity of Donald Trump 🙄. Republicans are wasting their time and our taxpayer dollars investigating Joe Biden. They should be investigating Trump!

Refusing - as required by law. Biden is a private citizen. If they cared, they would have done this while he was in office. They didn't, so this is just them twiddling their thumbs.

He’s no longer in office. Do they want Trump treated the same once he’s out? Some folks might feel differently about this if we had ever seen Trump’s tax returns, or his health care plan, or even some tariff deals.
