last paragraph:
“Rosenstein’s latest action thus puts Democrats in a catch-22.
They could continue supporting Rosenstein as the voice of objective reason, and thus effectively endorse the legitimacy of Trump’s concerns, or to turn against Rosenstein, which would suggest their own motives might just be partisan.”

I guess “monkey wrench” is no longer politically-correct?

Go Rosenstein and Sessions!! Great job in draining the swamp!
To: bitt
Yeah but that is purely a tactic to stall Horowitz report - maybe hoping it goes on beyond the November election!

Rosenweasel is the very definition of a conflicted Deep Stater.

IIRC, Rogan was born in the UK. Bits talk funny. 😉

Rosensteins latest action thus puts Democrats in a catch-22.
They could continue supporting Rosenstein as the voice of objective reason, and thus effectively endorse the legitimacy of Trumps concerns, or to turn against Rosenstein, which would suggest their own motives might just be partisan.
I think it puts Democrats "in a bind", or "between a rock and a hard place". Neither option works for them, but that doesn't mean it's a Catch 22.

Oh it’s Rogan — knew it had to be a Brit — when I saw “spanner” lol

Rosenweasel’s best option is to try to stay ahead of the wave that’s coming on them fast, because this thing hasn’t fallen apart, it’s exploded. Looked at from any normal, objective viewpoint hell yes there’s probable cause, but remember that a partisan Dem looks at it in terms of what they can get away with. That horizon is shrinking on them.
To: bitt
Isn’t Sessions the actual AG? Or does he hold a ceremonial post like the Prince of Wales?
To: gr8eman

Nope. They’ll stick with him because they know Trump will remove him the day after the midterms.
