Great cartoon, but...a bit depressing, to be sure.

From the comments section:

"My theory is that he wanted to get impeached, and knew that losing the House allows him to disclose EVERYTHING as a defense, in a trial, under oath, subject to perjury, knowing that the press will be covering it live, to the whole world.
That’s why Rudy is bullet-proof on any allegations of wrong-doing, because he was acting as a lawyer, representing a client (not the Office of the President, or as a government employee of the President, but the man himself, the defendant Donald J Trump, not PDJT), who is allowed to lawfully search for any exculpatory information, and can get their own subpoenas.
But he really wanted to wait and drag it out closer to the election. But this way will work, too."______
I'm no lawyer, but this is interesting.
