The taxpayer, and I'm fine with it.  It is what it is.  He shouldn't be allowed to sue them, but they are allowed to break him financially?  Is that what you're implying? Hell, if anything he should sue them and then we the people should sue them, too, to recover the misappropriated funds they wasted on this, the mueller probe, and all the other shit we don't even know about. You can save your argument about taxpayer funds if that's where you're going with it.  You don't have a sympathetic ear from me at all on that argument.
