No, not nerves of steel. His smug defiance is based on thinking his swamp allies are in control.
1. Thinks the President can’t fire him without major political repercussions.
2. Has Wray’s backing. Wray is in a vice just as the President is and doesn’t have evidence to fire Rosenstein.
3. Thinks House Republicans are scum and can do nothing. An impeachment vote can get through after July 7 but the Senate can do nothing about removing him. They don’t have he votes.
4. RR’s wife is in deep with the Clintons. He knows no matter what happens, he will be well taken care of.
RR’s defiance is a red flag indicator he is deep state swamp through and through. After his disrespectful behavior today and in the past weeks, there is no doubt where his loyalties lay.
The plan to get him involves the DOJ IG, Huber, and Congress. Q says the President has the original documents that RR is hiding. He knows what is being hidden. He knows what RR has redacted The plan is to give RR one last chance to come clean or else RR will be charged with a series of charges ranging from contempt to obstruction of justice.
What I don’t understand about all these guys is them thinking the others will take care of them or have their back. It looks to me like any of them can be thrown under the bus or Arkancided on the slightest whim.
Nervous about someone talking? Arrange for an unexpected heart attack, suicide by red scarf, discovery in Ft. Marcy Park, etc.
Exactly right. RR believes he’s going to win. What does he know that we don’t.....
Great analysis. However, smug bustards have a way of falling on their faces in their own poo sooner or later.
Wray reports to RR, not the other way around
