The filing observes 'a wide range of 'alternative remedies and deterrents' to presidential wrongdoing' that fall outside strict judicial action.
Trump had previously requested that a federal judge block the enforcement of the subpoena. An appeals court in November upheld the trial court's decision in Vance's favor. The Supreme Court subsequently agreed to hear the case.
For example, Scrutiny from the news media is often dismissed by the president as"fake news," affording the White House an opportunity to avoid bad press without having to engage on the merits. Veteran CBS News correspondent Lesley Stahl corroborated this understanding of the president's relationship with the press in an interview in May 2018.
The White House did not respond to requests for comment at the time from multiple news agencies about Stahl's remarks. Though he has alternately tried to walk back his remarks and lambasted reporters for misinterpreting them, Alan Dershowitz, the president's impeachment counsel, argued that Trump cannot be impeached when he"does something which he believes will help him get elected in the public interest."
