That hope as set out #959 seems to me to be entirely wishful thinking. The last year and a half have been extremely damaging to Trump, and anyone who suggested he should go through it because there is going to be a grand reveal at the end would have been told that it was crazy. Instead, assign 10 great prosecutors, like Rudy, to look into Fisa, FBI, U1, Benghazi, Clinton Foundation, put together a few grand juries, bring in people like McCabe to sweat in front of the GJ, and start working your way up the ladder, methodically and purposefully. Every week, announce a new indictment. Start out with easy stuff—leaks and lies. Work your way up to Multi-million dollar treason plots, like U1 and Iran. Prepare the people for the evil, and then start proving it, with documents, songbirds, guilty pleas.
That’s how you would do it. You sure as hell would not say, “subject me to torture, hurt our party and our cause, prevent me from being strong enough to deal with Congress and make foreign countries doubt my power. Then we’ll show ‘em.”
That they did not do the straight forward approach lies entirely on Sessions and his standing aside at the exact moment he was needed.
You’ve got it all figured out and know the best strategy, eh? Smarter than Trump, smarter than Sessions, with inside knowledge of all the variables? O great one, what have you done with your life to gain such vaunted certainty and knowledge?
