Now one of them is gonna be wrong. I hate to say this, but I think it's a fair observation. I think the Justice Department's going to do pretty much what, at the senior levels, whatever they can to make sure that President Trump is the nominee, because that's who President Biden wants.

Biden ain’t running
Trump’s victory in 2016 was very, VERY narrow.
A lot of it had to do with his opponent.
