I’m curious to know about a very gullible, or complicit FISA Court Judge.
Everybody seems to want to dance around the one figure in this mess that could have asked a few more questions perhaps, or asked some at all.
My theory is that the reason the first warrant was denied was because it wouldn’t give the judge enough cover. He sent them back to get more supporting “documentation” so that he would be able to sign the warrant and then claim that he made an “honest” decision based on evidence only (and not on his desire to help Hitlery and sabotage Trump).
What was the judge to do? The FBI sourced a Yahoo News article. It doesn't get any more iron-clad than that!
Yes. What about this judge? If he was duped he would be angry and seek some sort of recourse against those that lied to him, I would think.
Otherwise…?
