I also think MAGA was going to throw a tantrum regardless.
Avoiding a MAGA tantrum was totally doable imho.
1. Do nothing—and wait for the MAGA tantrum to start. Let them lead. It could buy you many months.
2. Then release a few files of your choice. Explain the rest are currently under review. That buys many more months.
3. Rinse and repeat.
“MAGA” isn’t throwing a tantrum. The MSM, usual never trumpers, almost but not quite yet never trumpers, GOPe, democrats and libertarians are throwing tantrums about a case where the “victims” either settled in civil court or refuse to come forward. How about we save those currently enduring crimes against them?
Nope! MAGA isn’t throwing tantrums.
