Thanks! That’s what it seems like. After the MSM’s coordinated effort to falsely portray a fake “house of cards” falling in on Trump, I think he wanted to explain to We the People why he was going to release the docs - the MSM would distort it and portray it as wild irrational flailing on his part.
Americans love an underdog, especially one who suddenly roars back to fight and destroy the enemy. CINC’s done this a few times, let the MSM give him a thousand papercuts plus a few shivs (and us ulcery heartburn} before he chiliwomps them when the timing is right.
