Your post got me thinking: Many believe that everyone in DC has dirt on everyone else, which is used to create deals in a “I won’t rat you out if you don’t rat me out” way. But this does not work because there is no “there” there, and even when they tried it with the “grab ‘em by the...” revelation, it failed.
It makes me wonder if all these wiretaps, etc. are a desperate attempt by the #uniparty to find SOME SORT OF DIRT that CAN be used to control him. It looks like he just doesn’t care. He seems to be the most politically free president we’ve had in over a century.
“any believe that everyone in DC has dirt on everyone else, which is used to create deals in a “I won’t rat you out if you don’t rat me out” way.”
This whole thing reminds me of the final duel in “For A Few Dollars More” with Eastwood, Van Cleef and Volonte standing there with the pocket watch ticking down to certain death for someone.
